I have little faith that they will, at least not before eroding the meaning of the term completely, to the point people find being called antisemitic or an antisemite to not carry any weight, and just be a meaningless insult like "butthead" or "peabrain" something you say to try and make people feel bad or dumb, but doesn't have any real meaning. It might also be seen as a way to silence real dissent against horrible things, and that's even worse because it means people not only won't take it seriously, they'd consider the people saying it, even ones using it legitimately, to be trying to enact suppression.

Ultimately what they are doing is very bad and has negative long-term consequences, which they seem to be blatantly neglecting or disregarding.
