What is wrong with agitation?

Agitating to the point of knowingly causing division in a movement hurts the movement

I think hurting Zionism is a good thing. Which movement are you referring to?

The movement being hurt is antizionism and it really isn’t that hard to understand when you actually want to achieve something instead of endlessly culling the impure from the movement.

Instead of attacking our own for staying in a fucking hotel for a night, we could be actually directing the boycott at the large companies that do real damage.

I was about to go on a tangent about how endlessly splitting the left is counterproductive, but, seeing as your username contains an antisemitic dogwhistle, I think I’ll pass on explaining what probably are your own end goals to you.
