Try being an Evangelical in academia. It is enough to make to both anti-Semitic and rabidly anti-catholic.
I know a lot of nominal Catholic academics who are little better than pagans and have met several Jews, (all from the US or UK never from Israel interestedly enough)that seldom miss an opportunity to disparage Evangelicals. I am spared their wrath somewhat because I can claim to be a lapsed Mennonite so they assume I am a pacifist.

(A rabbit trail)

The left like the Amish and Mennonites because they are weird. They live on farms by themselves, don;t complain if you say untrue things about them and fit the liberal stereotype of what they think Christians should be. Simple, uneducated, rubes that don’t ever confront you with your sinfulness. I think that often times the Amish and Old Order Mennonites are disobedient to the command of Jesus to be “In the world but not of the world” They are not really in this world and have very little zeal to see the lost brought to Christ.
