>it's absolutely the case that there's an insidious strain of antisemitism hiding in advocacy for Palestinians
There's a rather more insidious strain of state supported Islamophobia and Israeli racial supremacy hiding in almost every trumped up accusation of anti-semitism.
It comes routinely from institutions who purport to speak for Jews.
For example, there's an institution named "stop antisemitism" who recently tried to offer money to dox a writer from The Onion for a joke that could in no way be construed as anti-semitic in any way, shape or form: https://www.dailydot.com/debug/the-onion-stop-antisemitism/
These people did not make a mistake. They weren't being incautious or overly zealous. They are simply racists.
