          From the article:

          “The fact that Congress has to pass a resolution saying that anti-Zionism and antisemitism are the same thing means that people’s efforts to end the conflation of the two are getting somewhere.”

          Reality says otherwise.

            I think the point they were making was that it’s not the liberals who are typically pushing that narrative.

            Liberals tend to be against regimes which displace millions of people.

            It’s the liberals who are trying to illustrate that you can be critical of an authoritarian state, while understanding that the people living under that authority aren’t responsible.

              Who do you call liberals ? Is Biden a liberal ? Do you feel he is unsupportive of Israel massacres, promoted by extereme right government ? Do you feel being critical with Israel is OK and you won’t be call antisemitic ? (Disclaimer : speaking from France, where the exact same craziness happens…)

                Is Bernie Sanders conflating antizionism with antisemitism? He’s against sending Israel more money.

                    Biden isn’t liberal, he’s a moderate conservative that made it into the White House under a democratic banner
