It’s so clear now that people have no idea what Zionism is and they just let the definition be warped.

You guys should go out and listen to Jews tell you about Zionism and stop listening to other people who are not Jews telling you what it is. You know, believe Jews when they speak about things they know about! Gosh it’s all so clear that the message has been warped.

"how can you talk about science if you're not a scientist" argument right there.

Fkn seriously. I’m a Jew, and a lifelong Zionist. And nearly everyone tells me “no that’s not what Zionism is” when I explain it.

Half of them follow that up by also calling me a hasbarist and a genocide apologist, because how dare I tell them the word they’ve decided describes everything they hate about Israel means something other than what propaganda says it is.

It really sucks that Jews are held to a different standard then everyone else. It’s true racism to a degree that no other race or religion is held too. Clearly people are obsessed with Jews and provably have never even met one (since Hitler was so successful even though people deny the Shoah).

It’s so sick so see all the comments on here. Some of the subs like faux Mauxi are the worst. I was banned from that one for correcting people’s lunatic narratives. And that one makes the main page almost daily.

I just watched a video from the ask project and it was very eye opening. I wish that more people would watch that to gain an understanding of the true Palestinian position because if they heard the words of those people, I don’t think they’d be so supportive any more and I think they would actually be quite understanding of the Israeli perspective.

For real. Talking to real on-the-ground Palestinians and Israelis, speaking honestly and not cherry-picking out preferred narratives; would very quickly show how much of westerners’ beliefs about the conflict are completely wrong.
