Is antisemitism an actual problem in many college campus?

[u/Professional_Cat_437]

Or are pro-Israel people just saying “pro-Palestine is code word for antisemitic”, similar to how white supremacists screech “Anti-racism is code word for anti-white”.

Hey OP, Jew here. You’re not going to get reliable responses in this sub, which tends to not take antisemitism seriously. I suggest going to r/Jewish and r/Judaism to get some more honest answers. This is a regular topic of discussion there. You can also feel free to dm me for some personal stories, stats, and news stories I’ve compiled as proof of the antisemitism crisis on college campuses.

I personally know people who have been:

1. Threatened with a machete
2. Removed from a group because their Israeli nationality “made people feel unsafe”. Half of all Jews are Israeli due to the fact that we fled there as refugees.
3. Kicked out of their apartment by long-time roommates for being Jewish Israeli.
4. Excommunicated from class
5. Transferred to Israeli university because the situation in the US was unsafe, they had death threats and were confined to their room for 3 weeks.

In all of these cases, the administration did nothing. Some of the antisemites in these stories were uni employees who are still employed.

Please feel free to reach out.
