As another Jew, the way non-Jews are using us as a cudgel to crack down on free speech certainly doesn't feel like "support". As one of history's leading targets when it comes time to scapegoat a minority, I get more antisemitic vibes from the "we have to sacrifice our American ideals to protect the Jews" folks than the "stop killing Palestinians" ones.

Right on. And the conflation of anti-Israel and anti-Jew feels really dangerous, considering the current state of affairs in Israel.

I'm an American, thankyouverymuch. I've been to Israel once. I don't care a whole lot about the place either way. Acting like I must be aggrieved when someone attacks that country is doing far more damage to me than the attack.

I remember first hearing of the "not in our name" protests (very early on) and thinking "I'm so glad I'm not the only person who realizes that what is being presented as patronization is blame."
