Maybe the use should be limited to actual instances of Jew "hate". "Anti-Jewish bigotry" covers more ground, but is a mouthful, where Jew hate is succinct. I primarily use Antisemitism, but I occasionally use "Jew hate" because it's powerful and packs a punch like the author notes.

It's pretty f-ed up that people even have to have conversations like this.
