Dr. Hsiung,
you wrote that it could be uncivil to call a post antisemitic. I believe that for a post to be determined as antisemitic, that some part of it could have a statement that is antisemitic. A definition of {antisemitic} could be used to make that determination. There are many definitions of what antisemitic means, depending on who is giving the definition. One thing that could be found in common is that the statement that is being considerd to be antisemitic or not, could carry with it a hatred toward jews. This hatred could be seen in a statement that portreys jews as {subhuman},such as some of the Nazi propaganda.
Another form of antisemitism libels the jews and accuses them or attempts to make them scapegoats. The accusations could run from controlling the media to killing Christ or bringing the black plague to Europe, etc.
These are some of the accepted definitions of antisemitism. There are more. There is racial vs religious antisemitism. I believe that those definitions could be the same in a mental health community. I am requesting that if you have some other way to determine if a post could be called antisemitic, which has antisemitic content, that you add it to what I have written, or say that some or all of what I have written here is not what you would use to determine if a post is antisemitic. If youcould, then I could know what is an antisemitic post and what is not, according to the guidlines of the forum.
