Didn't college protesters get accused of anti semetism by federal and state officials?
If "accused" means "charged" then absolutely not. Local police have, as they generally do, charged protestors with some selected kinds of nonsense whether technically-valid or not, in addition to just roughing them up and arresting them and then admitting they didn't do anything wrong and letting them go.
The federal government has bought into a certain amount of the propaganda and said some ignorant shit, and hasn't been doing much to discourage the police from doing that, but as far as I'm aware, "antisemitism" in the current propaganda construction is still perfectly legal and likely to remain so (whatever non-binding resolutions congress wants to make about it.)
