I’m not hear to talk about Palestine, Hezbollah, or Iran. I mean in general, objectively, it’s getting thrown around so much, for reasons that do not seem antisemetic in nature.

    Not really the meat of your question, but in my opinion it already lost its punch at its creation, given its etymology. I wish we would have hit the reset button and clarify that when “Semites” and “antisemite” refer to only Jews, it’s only in the historical context of Nazi Germany. Sometimes I wonder, if I should simply use antisemitism for the hatred against Palestine, too, and that without any context or explanation.
