A couple words on why the way that some of you use "Zionist" just feels like "Jew (derogatory)":

1) Zionism, as I have stated repeatedly, is a complex philosophy with multiple iterations (cultural, religious, and political, just for a start), to reduce it to the most violent...
... form of political Zionism is already a problem. Many self-IDed Zionists do not support this war or Israel's current government, I personally know Zionists who are actively working towards making Israel a more tolerant, pluralistic society for both Palestinians and Jews.
So already it's a problem when "Zionist" is used to mean "completely cosigns everything happening now and every horrible abuse of the Palestinians that has ever happened."

2) To refer to all Israelis as "Zionist" is false, not all Israelis buy into Zionism.

I don't think anti-Zionism is antisemitism and I don't think Zionism is racism but I also don't think that either anti-Zionists or Zionists make a good faith effort to address the antisemitism/racism embedded within their movements.
I don't identify with either camp, but if you do, really ask yourself what you are doing to combat the noxious elements within it. Do you just shrug your shoulders and insist it's not your problem? Do you hold up anti-Zionist Jews and Arab Israelis as tokens?
Do you insist that it's really just a fringe element that you're not responsible for and anyway it's not really a problem because look at the violence that Israel/Hamas is doing and isn't that more important than a couple of loudmouthed assholes?

So I am very aware that "I'm going to assault this person tangentially connected to a foreign country that is doing something I don't like" is a common phenomenon — during WW2, my Croatian great-uncle changed his German* last name to Denton to avoid harassment. 🧵

* Long story
But I find it interesting that people who likely would not blame random Russian-Americans or Asian-Americans getting assaulted on the actions of Putin or Xi Jinping somehow think it's fine to say that Bibi is the reason why Jews around the world are at elevated risk?
Like of course bigots are going to use whatever excuse they can to justify their bigotry. That's what bigots do! But why are so many of you so invested in blaming *Bibi* for their actions in a way you don't with other despots?

You are perfectly welcome to take the position that Israel is a violent settler-colonial state that cannot be reformed and must be destroyed; but I think if you choose to take that position it is worth actually thinking through what you mean by Israel's destruction.
Do you mean the replacement of Israel and its government with a Palestinian state from the river to the sea? That's a position you can hold! It is worth asking what you imagine will happen to Israelis currently living in the region, though. Will they be granted citizenship?
Will they be killed? Will they be expelled? If it's the latter, where will they go? Will Poland and Germany and Spain and Egypt and Iran and Syria and Iraq and Yemen and France and Russia and etc etc etc be expected to take refugees and their descendants back?

Something I think about a lot is the fact that few people can actually define an orgasm, and especially a "female orgasm," in anything remotely approaching concrete and measurable terms.
(And by "few people" I might actually mean "no one")
You might be thinking, "Well but wait if someone ejaculates that's obviously an orgasm" but like... what if they have ejaculation but no pleasurable sensation? What if the have the pleasure of orgasm but ejaculate internally or don't ejaculate at all (it can happen)?

One of the most bizarre things about Buffalo is people here think they invented putting “the” in front of a highway number
This is how you know no one from Buffalo has ever been to LA
Semi-related every time I’m here I get newly annoyed at how Robert Moses fucked this place up so bad; HE CUT AN OLMSTED PARK IN HALF WITH A HIGHWAY
