There's an antisemitic idea called Dual Loyalty in which Jews are "loyal to Israel". We're seeing this in many ways, in countries talking about eg "Australians and Jews". There's another similar idea called "Collective Responsibility", in which actions of one person of a group means that all must be guilty, eg if one Jew anywhere does something, all are responsible and must be punished.

Here, we see both tropes:

What can we do about it? We can report it, and we can hold our admins accountable by demanding they block accounts and if this behavior continues, demand other instances responsible for the hate speech on them.

Be sure to report, and boost for visibility.

When people who promote violence and spread antisemitic conspiracy theories are given "GNU" awards, there's a deep problem.
