How U.S. News Media Manufactured ‘Antisemitism on Campuses’

Has antisemitism been rampant across U.S. college campuses since October 2023, or has that narrative been manufactured in service of shielding Israel from criticism for its genocide in Gaza? In this episode of “Backspace,” Sana Saeed looks at the roots of the “antisemitism on campus” media narrative and its role in crushing condemnation of a U.S-supported policy of genocide.

And this is why I don’t watch corporate media anymore. Too much propaganda and lies.

I once saw a tiktok from a Jewish college student who was pro Israel and anti-Palestine about how he feels unsafe in his college and one of his classmates asked him why and he said its because he is afraid he is being shamed for his views and his classmate said that's exactly the point of the protest..what's happening in Gaza is inhumane and barabric and what privileged students think is anti semintism is just not what it is..their protest goal is not to hurt pro Israel anti palestine people but to shame them...shame them enough to make them think what they believe is wrong and when people who think like this are shown the mirror, they often dont like it and feel like they are attacked

Condemning Israeli war crimes is not antisemitic.

Bring down the media Mafia !!

[@Blackjack09721]

It is crazy how asking for a ceasefire makes you the bad person in a protest.....lol. Israel shouldn't really have any standing in any of this.

Jews arent being attacked on college campuses because people dont have an issue with folks practicing Judaism. People do however have an issue with state violence

[@paxundpeace9970]

Those that condem the terror attacks rarely condem the attacks on civilians in Gaza or the violent attacks by settlers.

How many jewish people were harmed during these protests? How many protesters were harmed by jewish people? They kept saying the jewish were scared to go to school but were out there counter protesting?

[@uwesibert984]

No wonder they are scared of TikTok.

[@badbenito]

No one is threatening Jews. Maybe they shouldn't identify with Israel and Zionism if they're afraid of criticism.

[@Indlovu402]

Now even saying you are not a fan of Jerry Seinfeld is classified as antisemitic.

Police brutality should be charged in court 🤬

Thank you, from a Jewish supporter of a free Palestine. Stop the terror on both sides, and stop the colonization done supposedly in my name.

US Congressman Ritchie Torres, 2023 Oct 10: "We should live in a world where barbaric acts of terrorism are universally condemned, without equivocation, without hesitation, without obfuscation."

[@japorto100]

That word has no meaning anymore. Its just funny in switzerland in Davos (WEF destination) a ski shop owner explicitly wrote on his door: " No Jews allowed". That is clearly antisemitism. Ironicly when its done to the Russians its absolutely allowed. Strange world.....

I think a big reason TikTok has so much pro Palestine content is because other social media platforms will not allow a lot of it to be published. For example anytime I try to share something pro Palestine to my instagram story it is always removed within minutes by Instagram.

[@larabraver]

​​Exactly. Why is racism against Jews "special" and codified into another country's (US) law, when other groups have experienced the same, worse and for far longer in some cases.
