[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why is this thread on the Religion forum?  It belongs on either the politics forum or the relationship forum.  It has nothing to do with religion.[/quote]

Well it is about religion because OP speculates her acquaintance is feeling hurt by antisemitism and wants to know what to do. But yeah what we have learned over and over again on DCUM is that Jews are not allowed to express themselves about antisemitism the ways others can express themselves about religious bias. We cannot even have posts about antisemitic attacks. It becomes political AND antisemitic every.single.time. [/quote]

The issue here (and elsewhere) is the conflation of antisemitism with objecting to the actions of Israeli leadership.  They are not the same thing.[/quote]

nobody knows what was said. And based on my experience on DCUM and IRL, it is pretty rare for non-Jews to be able to have that conversation in a way that does not veer into bad territory. here you are just assuming as a default that the Jewish person MUST have been exaggerating and making things up and conflating.
