The thing with the word anti semitism is that it's a misnomer. Meaning that the word sounds like it means something else than it does, but it doesn't. The definition of anti semite refers only to jews according to reliable dictionaries.
I lloked up both words. "Antisemite" and "semite." As I pointed out, they contradict one another. Semites are not exclusively Jews.
I know how the word is used, and normally don't say much. But you are arguing the use of labels, so I thought I'd toss that in.
