Thinking of Jewish people as "other" and "separate" is a precondition to discrimination.

Jewish identity has been formed because of the discimitation and segregation they have been subjected to. Their aspirations to have their own safe environment is a reaction to that. Antisemitism predates Zionism.

Yes, clearly, antisemitism predated Zionism. But the "othering" of Jews is a precondition for antisemitism.
