Antisemitism is when Jews are attacked for being Jews. It can happen and happens outside of the holocaust and should be taken seriously. There is the misunderstanding you said and also some Germans famously know as anti-Deutsche or antigermans that are of the opinion that any criticism of the actions of the Israeli government is antisemitism because it is a Jewish ethnostate. They also sometimes/often think that the Germans are antisemitic by their existence and bloodline

    See, just as I said. You draw the line at attacks. Would you define racism as being attacks against racialized people? Antisemitism starts with the rumor about the Jews. That’s what legitimizes the marginalization and violence. This is the difference how leftists typically deal with accusations of bigotry: Black person: „That’s racist!“ Leftist: „Of course your lived experience matters!“ Jewish person: „That’s antisemitic!“ Leftist: „ANTIZIONISM ISNT ANTISEMITISM! SHUT UP ZIONAZI! DEATH TO ISRAHELL!“ > antigermans that are of the opinion that any criticism of the actions of the Israeli government is antisemitism because it is a Jewish ethnostate That’s often repeated but incorrect. Criticism is fine. Israelis, Zionists, and antigermans criticize Israel all the time. It crosses the line when demanding Israel‘s violent destruction and with it the death of millions of Jews for example. Holding Israel to a different standard than all other countries can be an expression of antisemitism as well. Denying only the Jewish people the right to self determination is common for example. Repeating antisemitic conspiracy theories and tropes doesn’t stop being antisemitic, if the word Jews are swapped for Zionists. That’s what neo-Nazis have been doing for decades. Today the anti Israel left uncritically uses the exact same phrases and terms they have established. Holocaust inversion has also become disturbingly widespread.
