    General opinion is beginning to shift. But will it be enough to counter the “anything against Israel is anti Semite and will lead to redicule” sentiment?

      WDYM? There’s a massive protest in the middle of London saying “stop arming Israel” and nobody’s jailed for anti semitism.

      I live in Europe, I openly express my opinion on Israel’s genocide, nobody thinks I’m an antisemite. In fact, I probably don’t have a sufficiently diverse environment around me, cuz I don’t think I know anyone who’s supporting Israel’s atrocious war.

      Is anyone calling you an antisemite?

        Yeah, like I said, opinion is changing. But in relation to main strean media, and more importantly, government, we are close but not entirely there yet and the hesitation has been due to the decades old anti Semite struggle that washes over everything Israel.

      Doubtful sadly. Especially with starmer in charge, who is in charge partly for calling others anti Semitic
