Are antisemite and homophobe overused to describe acceptable ideas in today's age?

Yeah, you crack too many gay jokes
You talk too much about Israel's violations
You ah geh
Nope, people are just sensitive
Hey, if your jokes are bad, then they're bad ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
It feels like it presses opinions

I personally feel like it presses an opinion ._.

A user here told me it is antisemitism to believe Israel can simply just BE evil .-.
Literally implying Israel is always right and no evil atrocity they do is evil and should be ignored. I don't think that it is antisemitism to call Israel's actions evil when the actions are evil >_>

Another user here told me I am homophobic for cracking a gay joke (forreal) ._.

Are these really the appropriate uses of these two words? It doesn't guide my opinion at all on ANYTHING when I get called homophobic or antisemite for just simply joking or expressing human rights violations of potentially the most backwards country in our era 🤔

I see it in many other places besides here, too, used to antagonize people across a variety of social media platforms.
Why is this not for all types of person and all types of opinions?

Or is it because I crack too many "You ah geh" jokes or talk about Israel's violations too much?

This reminds me of how Kevin Hart made a joke about not wanting a gay son and the LGBT community basically made him step down from hosting the awards. 😕
