This is semantically false. Many Israeli Jews could be considered anti-semites for their treatment of Palestinians, another semitic people, yet they clearly wouldn't be anti-Jewish racists. You are conflating all semitic peoples with Jews, a very particular semitic people. I would also say anti-semites don't seem particulary concerned about Syrians or other semitic speaking people, they just really hate Jews, so I very much doubt semitism has anything to do with it.

Well, yeah.

Racism is the belief that different races possess distinct characteristics, abilities, or qualities, especially so as to distinguish them as inferior or superior to one another.

[–]JewsAreOfColor[S] 1 insightful - 1 fun1 insightful - 0 fun2 insightful - 1 fun -  (2 children)

That definition is racist and outdated. Wake up to the reality that racism is the belief that the lives of the oppressor classes matter.

    “White people” are an oxymoron. Whites are not human, they are a sub for sub human race of reptilian vermin worthy of systematic execution to protect all living things on this planet. White genocide is the only answer to stopping nuclear war. Die in the holocaust you have fucking earned, you worthless provincial cracker.

    Jews are superior to whites and as such we have earned the right to systematically exterminate our inferiors to protect those they oppress. White genocide is social justice because it prevents these subhuman monsters from killing people of color.
