Yelling “anti-semitism” may be a conditioned response, but it smacks of the current trend to label anything we dislike as victimization. It seems popular. That’s the energy behind the myth of Islamaphobia (it is really fear of terrorism), which is used to identify it is an unfair victimization.
Similarly, I ask the OP and commenters to explain the Mishna in Pirkei Avos:
המחלל שם שמים בסתר נפרעים ממנו בגלוי
If the qualification for chilul Hashem is publicity, than how can one do this in private? I believe the answer to that question will shed a great deal of light on the question posed by the OP.
