False. You said you were celebrating Passover by eating a bacon cheeseburger...

The exact words don't matter. It doesn't change the fact that I made no statement other than the fact that I was not observing Passover.

...(no mention of turkey bacon initially, by the way).

Seriously? You're really obsessed with this, you know. What, exactly, do the exact nature of the ingredients have to do with anything?

You're reading way too much into this.

So in fact you said you were specifically taking note of Passover to do things that are not generally considered Passover activities.

I said it was Passover, but I was eating a bacon cheeseburger. Because I don't observe Passover. Along with quite a few billion other people.

The only way this could possibly be construed as "antisemitic" is if you assumed that observing Passover was the default status that everyone on Earth was expected to meet and not observing Passover was some sort of shameful deviation that could be tolerated only if I kept it to myself.

So allow me to pose a revised version of the question no one seems able to answer: Many people will be eating bread this week; are all of them antisemitic, or just the ones who mention they're not going gluten-free, or just the ones that mention they're not going gluten free and also notice that it's Passover?
