If I posted on December 24 that I was upset that there was nothing open that day except Chinese restaurants and movie theaters and how there was nothing else to do except to go to those venues or to stay at home because of other people's religious holiday, Christians would have every right to be upset at me.

This example is not apropos.

In your example, you are complaining that other people don't conform to your beliefs.

I merely stated my plans— at which point you got upset that they didn't conform to your beliefs.

If you posted on December 24th that you planned to celebrate Christmas by eating Chinese food and seeing a movie, Christians would have no right to declare that you are "anti-Christian" for failing to celebrate Christmas in the "proper" way.

The same way I get upset at people who complain about Israel partially or completely shutting down for some holidays. If you don't like it, go somewhere else or keep it to yourself.

I never did anything of the sort.

No one is upset because you don't keep Kosher for Passover. People are upset because of how you go about letting us all know what you ate for dinner on Monday.

Exactly. You're not upset that I don't observe Passover— you're just upset that I mentioned that I don't observe Passover. Because apparently, my failure to follow your rituals is some horrible deviation that can only be tolerated if kept hidden.

Which goes back to the original question— is everybody who mentions eating bread during Passover "antisemitic?"
