    April fools? I can’t tell how many people support this genocide but wouldn’t that make “a lot” of world population antisemitic? It’s a convenient label for anyone in the way…I hate it here

      Yes, it makes a lot of reasonable people antisemitic just because they can see what Israel is doing to Palestinians. Since the policy then can’t be enforced consistently, this kind of situation gives a government a pretext for punishing anyone they dislike for other reasons. It’s still useful to governments to have laws almost everyone breaks, and that are seldom enforced, because then they can choose when, and against whom, to enforce them.
