Content warning Antisemitism, stickers in Hamburg

"Antisemitism" (German: "Antisemitismus") was coined by Wilhelm Marr, a rabid antisemite, as an alternative to the more honest term, "Jew-hate" ("Judenhass"), to make it sound scientific, not racist.

So now "antizionist" is the term favored by rabid antisemites as an alternative to the more honest term, "antisemitism". The goal is to make it sound political, not racist.

The racist euphemism treadmill is endless.

Jews and Israel in Canada:

"Among non-Jewish Canadians, the correlation between attitudes toward Jews and attitudes toward Israel is positive, statistically significant, and at the low end of moderate. This means that, although some critics of Israel have negative attitudes toward Jews, most do not. Exceptions include Muslims, who tend to score relatively high on negative attitudes toward Jews and Israel"
