Redefining antisemitism in the law was never about Jewish safety. It is about consolidating authoritarian power under the veneer of minority protection
Once again, for those who came in late: Palestinians are Semites. To call supporting them “antisemitic” is Orwellian.
The article looks to redact history with a liberal lens. Secularism, the separation of the Church and State, is a Christian invention, not a liberal invention. Christianity precedes liberalism. It has been around for 2,000 years. Words and concepts like religion are Christian words. You will find not “religion” in the Greek Bible or any other culture, because the word, and meaning has Latin roots which Latin Christianity has influenced the meaning. Just like words that changed their meaning like “inflation” which meant the growth rate of the supply of money, which is now means in economic circles as the rate of price growth.
Liberalism is a Western concept. I would also like to note is that Westerners have a dualistic view of good and evil. Russians are evil, Americans are good. Jews are good, Muslims are bad, are examples of that dualistic view. When, in reality, they probably nothing more than localized conflicts. The liberal simply replaced the Devil, with Nazis.
