Was Marcion antisemitic?

Marcion did not mock the Hebrew Scriptures or accuse Jewish people of deceit; he accepted that the Jewish scriptures were for Jews and validated that the Jewish people were the chosen followers of their specific tribal lord. Instead of weaponizing scripture to attack the Jewish community, Marcion simply viewed Judaism as entirely separate and independent from the spiritual message of Christ.
As a consortium of Christian thought, this ministry is highly influenced by Marcion and consider him the true Church father.
Thus:
We are against antisemitism here, 💯 % we see that the adaptation of Marcion's Bible to be used by Jewish believers became let's say, inundated, resulting in a confusing text which can be mistaken to be antisemitic.
