   The term “semitism” has been co-opted by the zionists.

   The term “antisemitism” was coined by zionists.

   All the many cultural and ethnic groups that identify as descendants of Shem can either re-co-opt the term or abandon the term.

     As I see it, the danger in accusing everyone who disagrees with Israel of antisemitism is that Jews will be conflated with Israel and thus viewed as genocidal.
     "Jews in Australia deserve real data collected on real antisemitism. They deserve factual information on fascist and neo-Nazi threats. How do Jews otherwise inform themselves and keep their communities safe, when self-appointed community leaders offer nothing but bullshit, hyperbole and conflation of anti-genocide protests with antisemitism?"
