doing away with anti-semitism
In what might be one of the most important changes to the English language of the entire century, yawn, the AP Stylebook has announced that the word antisemite and its variants (antisemitism, antisemitic, etc) will no longer be capitalized or hyphenated.
We now write antisemitism (n.), antisemitic (adj.), without a hyphen and with no capitalization.

This is a change from AP's previous style: anti-Semitism and anti-Semitic.#ACES2021Online
Way to go.
If only we could do away completely with all the antisemitism and not just the hyphen inside it.
