it's weird how in israel there are a decent number of zionists who are actually serious about ending the occupation of the west bank & establishing a two-state solution (unlike in the usa where ime the majority of liberal zionists either have entirely vibes-based politics or are just reactionary towards anti-zionism—bc it exists in the usa in real numbers, as opposed to how it's completely outside the mainstream overton window in israel—in a way that makes them forget that they have political goals more specific than the vague idea of zionism) like on the one hand it's nice that there isn't quite as sharp of a divide between zionists and anti-zionists here and you're able to collaborate with more people whom you largely disagree with towards specific pressing goals but on the other hand it's crazy that often even among smolanim you can't just assume that someone isn't a zionist. like it's definitely not outside the overton window among smolani activists but it's not a given the way it would be in the usa
#smolanim translates to leftists but it has a different vibe#txt#also i keep talking about the state of liberal zionism in the usa as if i actually have talked with very many of them about it recently#i mainly just avoid the topic#and see what 20yos post on instagram and 40yos post on facebook
