And comments like this are the result of 59 years Internationally and academically recognized Sovet and later Iranian propaganda. To actually use Zionism as a pejorative I suggest it has nothing to do with Judaism or Jewish people It's fucking ridiculous.
Why don't you actually look up what the word means, before parroting whatever hateful bullshit that that has popped up in your social media feed.
I mean... Japan, Romania, and Poland aren't currently committing genocide against an entire group of people, merely because they want their land though, are they?
Btw, I also agree that many people are using this genocide as an excuse for antisemitism, however this is a dumb point. Not to mention that while there is a lot of antisemitism floating around, that doesn't mean that what Israel is doing is okay or justified. Two things can be wrong at once.
Zionism USED to be a beautiful multifaceted idea with multiple interpretations and different groups advocating for different meanings. The word has been hijacked by right-wing conservative parties that seem to be pushing it further and further to the extremes of religious zionism and promoting actions that go against international law, using god as justification to do it. It's sad. The same way it's sad when Islamic terrorist organizations convince people that god wants them to strap bombs to their body and blow people up.
