One doesn't have to be white to uphold white supremacy. Zionists appropriate/d Jewishness antisemitically to serve capitalist colonial goals. #Israel's place in western institutionalised white supremacy is relevant, not individual identities. #zionismiswhitesupremacism

Capitalism always constructs and uses race to divide and rule. Zionism manufactures its own construct of 'Jews' to serve its ruling class's aims. #zionismiswhitesupremacism

This includes the religious construct which it syncretises within its political structure by making its rabbis state employees, similar to how Ireland institutionalises catholic priests. #zionismiswhitesupremacism

It suits liberal zionists to deploy the 'Jewish supremacy' term so the white supremacist character of zionism is concealed by 'Jewishness'. #zionismiswhitesupremacism #zionismisantisemitism

Liberal zionists don't want to let go of their undemocratic dream of a 'Jewish state', which they created antisemitically in the name of all Jews whether they liked it or not, anymore than do their rightwing counterparts. #zionismiswhitesupremacism

Also, the term "Jewish supremacy" itself is ambiguous and plays straight into classical antisemitism, where antisemites are convinced Jews are supreme over whites in a global conspiracy. #zionismiswhitesupremacism

'Supremacy' means numero uno, over everybody. We don't call Burmese regime oppression over Rohingas 'Burmese supremacy', or China's persecution of Uighurs 'Chinese supremacy'. #zionismiswhitesupremacism

We never called Belgian oppression in the Congo 'Belgian supremacy', British colonialism in Australia 'British supremacy'. yet zionists single out, along with other antisemites, #Israel's settler colonialism as 'Jewish supremacy'. #zionismiswhitesupremacism

More here, in @nookyelur's article on the counter-productivity of framing zionism erroneously as 'Jewish supremacy". Don't let the antisemitic zionist hasbaroids win. aljazeera.com/opinions/2019/… #zionismiswhitesupremacism
