Typical ad hominem diversion. I listened to the related podcast episode of FTM yesterday evening on Spotify, and today decided to search more information and read the coinciding articles. I have no control about what gets upvoted here, since I don't work for an agency or troll farm. Look at my submission history. Another article I submitted related to Israel (Correllium getting acquired by Cellebrite) got no uptake whatsoever. It was never discussed here, at all.

I oppose civilians being targeted by terrorism, and that also obviously includes Israelians. For example, I was very much shocked by Oct 7.

I also do have a problem with Israel's alleged genocide by the current government.

I don't believe any of the above makes me antisemite. It is very typical of agents of a certain agency to frame like that though.

Agency is what those people you call trolls don't have. Leave them be, you don't want to end up lynched.
> Israelians

Israelis

An astonishing pair of sentences.

So astonishing there's a Wikipedia article about the phenomenon [1].

As someone with no dog in this race, I’m genuinely struggling to distinguish folks calling for a global intifada and railing against Zionists from anti-Semites. Particularly when they blame—to the point of dismissal—rising anti-Semitism (like, block or shoot up a synagogue anti-Semitism) on Israel.
I see. So who are these "agents of a certain agency" you're referring to? Can you be specific?
