Prominent media and institutional voices often cite explicitly pro-Zionist sources without critical examination. Organizations such as the Anti-Defamation League (ADL) and American Jewish Committee (AJC) in the U.S., the Campaign Against Antisemitism (CAA) and Board of Deputies of British Jews in the UK, and the World Jewish Congress (WJC) and European Jewish Congress (EJC) in Europe are advocacy groups that use the pretext of combating antisemitism to advance Zionist agendas. These groups frequently commission surveys and reports claiming a global “rise in antisemitism.”

    Sorry if it’s annoying that I keep pushing back, but the title really isn’t misleading or clickbait. It perfectly reflects the contents within.

    I understand we as leftists want to be good allies to those we perceive as marginalized, but we need to come to grips with the fact we have been propagandized our whole lives about this nonsense.

        I’m in my early 30s, so the propaganda has been a part of my whole life. Unless you’re trying to suggest there was systemic oppression of Jewish people in the early 2000s, which doesn’t really add up. The points of this article would apply just as equally to that era. There certainly was systemic discrimination of Jews at certain points of history. I never implied otherwise and I’d suggest you be careful with this insinuation if you expect to be taken seriously.

          It’s one thing to have a point and argue it fervently. It’s another to willfully ignore the points of others to adhere to your vitriol. I see I’ve made a mistake interacting with you. Good luck and good riddance.

            Genuinely sorry if I offended you. Learning that you were wrong about something can be difficult.
