They don't want to solve antisemitism, they want to shut people up.

Ur-Fascism Trait #14

Ur-Fascism speaks Newspeak … to limit the instruments for complex and critical reasoning…

Muddying language, redefining and appropriating common words and terms so that the ideas cannot be easily discussed… that is all Ur-fascist newspeak.

Israelis have devalued the word antisemitism.
