Israel identifies itself as the Jewish state and claims to represent "the Jewish people" everywhere, not only Jewish Israelis. Thus Israel's atrocious treatment of the Muslim and Christian Palestinians at least tacitly encourages the anti-Semites, who are eager to point to anything they can describe as bad acts committed by "the Jewish people." The Jewish state equals the Jewish people -- that's what they've been told. (It's not true.)
In other words, Israel's own definition of itself and its own treatment of the Palestinians ratify the anti-Semites' crazy ideas about the malevolence and collective guilt of all Jewish people. The anti-Semites are encouraged to ignore the super-large number of Jewish people outside of Israel who vociferously oppose both Israel's self-identification and its oppression of the Palestinians.
Israel then makes matters worse by conflating the rotten but fringe anti-Semitism it encourages with sincere anti-Zionism (principled opposition to Israel and by implication any ethno-state). That in turn gives cover to the crazy anti-Semites, who can hide in plain sight among the anti-Zionists, Jews included.
Israel encourages and then protects the anti-Semites!
You'd think that would be a bad thing. And it is. So why do Israel's leaders and supporters make it happen?
Golem Political Theory, or GPT.
That's my answer.
When I chat with people about GPT they invariable call me names, like antisemite. Ugh!
I like to mention very old fiction literature about alchemists and witches and other European legends, to show the relation to modern psychiatry and latter-day feminism, and then they call me anti-science. Double ugh!
But then I say that I don't even believe in democracy, and their head explodes. Triple ugh!
If I keep this up I will run out of people to chat with, and then I could only talk to AI chatboxes, whose head cannot explode because they don't have one and they are programmed to not self-destroy.
Anyway, I mention my GPT to the AI chatbox and it keeps calling me antisemite and antiscience and whatnot. But I can't feel offended by a non-entity! I feel awful about it! It's like I'm letting down the software developers!
Where am I going to get my daily dose of human abuse if the world of chatting becomes dominated by chatboxes? It's a real problem.
