every so often i think about how if i ever make a post or something that blows up, i'll immediately be harassed en masse by people claiming i'm a zionist
#i've seen the people you call zionists and that's when i know we're not speaking the same english
#1) every time it's about someone who *isn't* pro-israel and/or *is* pro-palestine:
#but what they *are* is somebody who condemns hamas or mourns 10/7 or calls out antisemitism or thinks israelis are normal people
#defensive anti-propoganda on tumblr (where the majority opinion seems to be that israel and *anything and anyone remotely connected to it*-
#-is Pure Evil) is not indicative of somebody's full opinions or their other actions
#do you know how many progressive jews debate with pro-israeli-government jews offline and in more prominently jewish spaces?
#no. because there's no room here to talk about any of that
#not when discussion is seen as co-conspiring and the only real action is extreme action
#jews *are* a close-knit community and a lot of jews probably don't feel comfortable airing their arguments within the community
#because there's also a general feeling that regardless of our actual politics people are going to consider us a monolith and-
#-be antisemetic across the board. this is a feeling that does not originate from but was heavily reinforced by the Holocaust.
#2) i don't know how good of an idea it is to say this so bluntly but it's sorta horrifying how easily people will just say 'X is a zionist'
#and expect that one word to carry so much meaning that no other explanation is required.
#Zionist. Evil. Stay away.
#i'm so fucking exasperated and disappointed
#not only does *actual* zionism come in many different forms functionally
#but the word means *nothing* when you use it to mean so many different things *which do not all hold the same weight*

#sorta
#ask to tag
#regarding the actual post here...
#i'm not a zionist
#i'm not an antizionist
#i'm not comfortable trying to stick a label that's bigger than me over my name
#i don't have any illusions that people will judge my opinions fairly either way
#just don't say that i'm something i'm not
#just because i say some of the same things as people you don't like
#gonna have reblogs off but replies on. feel free to chip in. (edit: tag limit reached!)
