Here’s one approach. Agree? Disagree? If you disagree, what’s a better one?

I am on college campuses every week.  They don't all have this problem, even though I would agree that a problem does exist.  I also think it is dangerous to label all opposition to Israel in the current conflict as being antisemitism.  That said, too many young people need to spend less time on Youtube and more time in reality.

I agree that the problem is most pronounced at “elite” universities and that opposition to the Israeli government’s actions aren’t necessarily connected to antisemitism. The larger issue of the framing of all issues as tied to identity categories is hugely problematic and tends to shut down meaningful debate. It also diminishes the greater issues of economic class which, with proper focus, could mobilize political solutions that better mitigate the issues faced by the truly marginalized.

In Gen Z parlance, the term is “touch grass” lol.
