Politicians and officials in the United States have increasingly spoken out against hate, especially following the attacks in Israel on October 7, 2023, and the subsequent conflict in Gaza. However, much of the legislative and public response has focused narrowly on antisemitism, with numerous laws introduced to address it, some of which risk criminalizing criticism of Israel rather than targeting hate itself. The article argues that this selective approach politicizes the fight against hate, neglecting other forms such as Islamophobia and anti-Arab sentiment, and may ultimately undermine efforts to combat hatred in all its forms. The author calls for a unified stance against all hate, warning that weaponizing the issue for political purposes only deepens divisions and perpetuates further animosity.
