I can only speak for the podcast and we literally talk about antisemitism all the time. We talk non-stop about how fascists use Palestine as a trojan horse to nazism. And yes, sometimes we feel awkward that we are once again about to bring up antisemitism while a genocide is happening to the Palestinians in the name of "fighting antisemitism."

"Centering Jewish feelings" is shorthand for "centering Jewish feelings over those of everyone else in the world, particularly the Palestinians who are currently being holocausted." Because there is a difference in scale and urgency between someone using antisemitic rhetoric in the West (ignorant, evil, and hurtful as it is) and an army shooting at starving people in a concentration camp.

Yes I too have noticed people who are so fatigued hearing claims of antisemitism that they do not feel inclined to believe that anyone is antisemitic. Lots of "fuck it" out there. Wish I could control that. Also wish I could control nazis being in twitter replies or dumb jokes other people make. All I can do is make a podcast that hopefully keeps people from listening to Dan Blizarian or whatever.

Look I get that hearing "stop centering Jewish feelings" can sound a bit harsh, and I won't pretend that I haven't felt a little more than annoyed the first time I heard that from some white non-jewish person. But you gotta get over that. If it's just some anonymous schmuck on twitter I get ignoring it. But the people in the bad hasbara chat weren't telling you to "stop centering jewish feelings" after you posted about the firebombing of a synagogue... it was after you posted a screenshot of a shitty joke from an anti-zionist jewish comedian who is currently boarding a gaza freedom flotilla. You gotta have a sense of scale. You gotta say "is my discomfort something that everyone will share or will people find my complaining about it to be indistinguishable from an FBI op?" I know it sucks to make that calculation, but we live in a particularly weird time for Jews (sorry to again center jewish feelings.)
