Social media algorithms are designed to reward emotions like anger and disgust. Too often, antisemitism falls into this category. With the help of powerful algorithms, they can spread faster and farther than more measured content — ensuring that extremism excels while moderate voices are ignored.

This rhetoric doesn't foster peace but only fuels antisemitism — distorting Holocaust history, comparing Israel and the Nazis, and denying Jewish suffering. It turns suffering into a zero-sum game, where one group’s pain is used to erase or delegitimize the other’s.

Wisconsin is one step closer to adopting the IHRA definition of antisemitism and its 11 examples — a crucial, internationally-recognized framework.
If passed, Wisconsin would join 37 other U.S. states that have already adopted the IHRA definition to better combat antisemitism .
