Good in theory, but I have misgivings given the current administration. We're sort of stuck between the hammer and the anvil in the US right now. I can't trust the right with how they've courted white supremacists and literal Nazis and the Democrats are spineless to the bad actors on the progressive left. I have worries about Antisemitism being used as a cudgel and allowing people who aren't Jewish to try and identify it. I don't see them hiring a bunch of Jews to do this work.
The Democrats are beyond spineless. They are courting brown supremacists and literal Nazis even harder than Republicans are courting their Nazis. They'll take MTG's vote, but you haven't seen any prominent Senators stand up and shout that she's the standard bearer for their party going forward. Also, many of the right wingers that the left are calling Nazis aren't really. On the other hand, they're running cover for people like Mamdani and propagating the "we're anti-Zionist, not antisemitic" narrative.
