#politics when politickers use "anti-"
I don't pay much attention to war as war is a topic that will be lied about. The government and military will be the primary source, and they will garner as much public support for their side otherwise the war effort loses volunteers or funding.
Now, there is a new war in Israel or Palestine, and plenty of political groups root for one of either sides.
So a word I came across is "anti-semitism".
I ended up reading "anti-semitism" as "to be opposed to the socio-political or economic interests of the Semitic people". There should be no problem in being "anti-semitic" under that definition because everyone's interests won't always line up with that community. Eventually, on some issue groups will be in disagreement.
"Should my country entrench itself deeper into debt to send more money than most will see in a lifetime to a foreign government?"
"Should I and my communities incur all economic consequences (e.g affordability of housing, education, healthcare, and anything that can't be outsourced) of that action?"
But usually, the word "anti-semitic" bears a connotation of being a criminal.
To label in such a way is an accusation that deprives the target of their boundaries and puts them under undue scrutiny like a defendant under trial; it is a distraction that guides the discussion away from the issue towards the accused's moral character. So "anti-" isn't a prefix that I consider much worth. The same goes for "-ist" or "-phobe".
