I mean, I would still call him an antisemitism expert, technically... He has lots of personal experience.

Well, making a political career coming from that background is not possible without a very strong ideological foundation. I'm sure he is indeed an expert in all forms of discrimination, antisemitism being one of them.

Well as we all learnt as children, it takes one to know one.

I don't trust people that use the term 'anti-semite'. It's like using the word "jew" to lump everyone into a category whether they're followers of the Abrahamic Death Cult or not. What was the term even designed for that you can't use the word 'racist' for? Is it to veil the racism to the point of brutal racial slavery and calls for genocide in the Judaic holy books (includes The Bible)? -The references to non Jew as being dogs, or beasts of the field? People should speak clealry and stop the umbrella nonsense. Atheist (or all Atheists) ethnic Jews shouldn't have to be victims of the racist death cults and what they do in their name.

I mean I understand anti-semite to just refer to the specific flavor of racism that specifically targets Jewish people for being Jewish as opposed to more generic white supremacists. It is of course being misused to refer to anti-zionists to try and paint them as racists.

Purposely misused and weaponised.nand in doing so made Jews more unsafe in Israel and worldwide. A form of antisemitism of it's own.

Absolutely

Would you consider yourself anti-antisemite?

The word Jew at least makes some sense: it's commonly understood to refer to the Jewish religion or people. Semite however makes little sense as it doesn't really mean Jewish people. It's a backward, antiquated, imprecise holdover from 18th century historians (who coined racial terms from the bible).

Would be nice to have two agreed upon, separate ways of referring to the ethnicity and the religion. I'd hate if my ethnicity was tied to a religion personally, like I was obliged to practice a faith because of my ancient ancestors or something. Having only terms that refer to both at once makes it too easy to say criticism of Judaic theology is tantamount to racism.
