    Are the Chinese antisemitic? I don’t even think they qualify by Israel’s stupid definition of the word, since they support the UN borders.

      Socialism has a broad definition than antisemitism. Does it mean worker-run businesses? Businesses run by the government on behalf of workers? Or should society be organised by commune?

      Anti-semitism is anti-semitism. Nevermind what Hasbara says and the Israeli state weaponising the term to their convenience, anti-semitism just means being bigoted against Jews.

        Some Chinese people believe in antisemitic tropes that Jews secretly rule the world.

        So because some Chinese citizens believe conspiracy theories, you claim that the government itself is antisemitic? That’s the weakest anti-China bash I’ve ever seen, dude.

            me: Are the Chinese antisemitic?

            you: Yes

            it was clear from the context that I wasn’t talking about individuals who happen to be chinese, but the socialist chinese government

              It was not clear to me. Do you think it’s possible that not everything you say is universally understood by everyone to be what you mean to say?

              You know, sort of like how it wasn’t clear to you that I never said anything about the government?
