Doesn't that depend on what you say 'zionism' is? If the definition of Zionism is just "a safe place" or "a country for" Jewish people, isn't that antisemitic to be anti-zionist? You don't want anywhere for Jewish people?

It seems everyone is saying something different and when I see things like:

> Literally anything zionism does needs to be questioned and called out

I worry that we're glossing over lots of things with a wide brush.

That’s.. not what zionism is and even if it was, genocide is not ever acceptable as a way toward that end.

Of course it's divisive. No topic is more divisive these days.

Except it should not be divisive - as the topic of a nation state’s actions toward their stated goal of genocide (I’m sorry, “mowing the lawn”) should turn everyone against said nation state. Instantly.
