Aposemitism

Aposemitism (noun): The attitude or practice of neutrally avoiding engagement with Semitic peoples or cultures, positioned as a middle ground between prosemitism (support) and antisemitism (opposition).

Etymology: Derived from Aposemitic, combining Greek apo- (“away”) and Semitic, with -ism indicating the practice or stance, mirroring antisemitism and created through wordplay with aposematic.

Semitism: Prosemitism (extreme left), Aposemitism (neutral center), Antisemitism (extreme right).
Example Sentence: His aposemitism was evident in his choice to live apart from Semitic communities, neither liking nor hating them.
