> A couple of the slides in her presentation touched on the casualties in Gaza during the Israel-Hamas war as well as the cuts at the United States Agency for International Development (USAID). Liu said she was told the slides about Gaza “could be perceived as antisemitic”

... in case you still had any lingering doubts that the deployment of that term since October 7 has been an entirely cynical maneuver to justify Israeli state crimes.

To be fair, this is her characterisation of the slides.

She characterised as "could be seen" -so this is awareness of apprehension of bias. It doesn't mean either that she was biassed, or the slides were antisemitic.
