I am opposed to antisemitism, I've seen people spewing some vile shit, and we don't need to tolerate hate speech, especially that which is amplified on Twitter.

But we don't need to conflate criticism of Israel or the violent settler colonialism with anti-semitism, and we don't need to pretend it's something other than what it is. If we did, what would that say about our own commitment to truth and reconciliation?

That's the problem. It's exceedingly difficult to fight antisemitism before people who don't read too much when some are doing their damnest to equate Israel with jews. This isn't even theoretical I'm having such conversations in RL where it's getting difficult to untangle the two because of hasbara.
