A defeat for Israel-critic Thomas Massie set off May’s dominant spike, while the war in Iran kept an ambient hostility simmering across six ideological communities.

About the series

Turning the Tide is produced by ISD’s Digital Analysis Unit to give policymakers, journalists and researchers a consistent monthly read on the actors and narratives shaping antisemitism online.

Every issue applies the same pipeline — keyword collection across 30+ platforms, an LLM classifier grounded in the IHRA working definition, account-level thresholds, and semantic mapping into twelve broad narratives — so month-to-month change is measured the same way each time.
