You can. because you referenced the IHRA “definition” of antisemitism adopted by themselves, the IHRA, in 2016

Aka

their own definition, criticized specifically for conflating antizionism with antisemitism

aka

the “definition” that led to 200 scholars making a new definition debunking it

aka a definition being used currently to silence free speech. If you’re using it to silence critisism of israel you are weaponizing it against one of the original drafter’s intentions.

So why not consider silence yourself? I’ve had quite enough of this ridiculous tantrum you call a point
