because your defintion of the word is wrong. Here is the worldwide accepted definition of it: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antisemitism
and especially regarding your statement:
A dictionary is not the source of truth for a word definition. It’s actually the opposite. A dictionary function is to provide the most common usage.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lexicography
Generally, lexicography focuses on the design, compilation, use and evaluation of general dictionaries, i.e. dictionaries that provide a description of the language in general use. Such a dictionary is usually called a general dictionary or LGP dictionary (Language for General Purpose). Specialized lexicography focuses on the design, compilation, use and evaluation of specialized dictionaries, i.e. dictionaries that are devoted to a (relatively restricted) set of linguistic and factual elements of one or more specialist subject fields, e.g. legal lexicography. Such a dictionary is usually called a specialized dictionary or Language for specific purposes dictionary and following Nielsen 1994, specialized dictionaries are either multi-field, single-field or sub-field dictionaries.
Oh god, someone still knows these things. It’s a better day now.
Yes but when a dictionary does its job and is trustworthy then that is practically the same thing. And in this case it is very much right. Ask anyone what antisemitism means and they will mention Jewish people not people who speak semitic languages.
Then they should use a different word, and stop hiding behind it to escape legitimate criticism.
this is a worldwide (!) accepted and established defintion of the word, but because you dont want to use it in it’s correct definition everybody else should change?
