the reason why jews (and people with historical understanding of antisemitism) are so anxious about the rise of antisemitism and the potential usage of antisemitic tropes being normalized so rapidly is because antisemitism escalates so fast. if you do not attempt to contain when the first signs of it shows, it will end with death.
when you say that "now is not the time to talk about antisemitism", by the time it is we will be dead. no, that is not hyperbole. it is historical.
in 1933, more than 9 million Jews lived in Europe. Nearly two out of every three European Jews were dead by 1945. It took only a little over 10 years things to escalate.
