I’m talking about the people who are “antizionist” as a cover for antisemitism. They do not have a principled stance, they just hate israel because they associate it with Jews and they also hate Jews

I’m sure that there are people who do that but most folx who identify as anti-zionists are against Israel as a colonial state, not the existence of Jews. Like there are a ton of Jews who self-identify as anti-Zionist, do you think they use that label to justify some twisted hatred for their own people?

Those people don’t go through the trouble of calling themselves antizionists. They are pretty open about their beliefs.

Not at all, no. I think that a principled antizionist stance (i.e. being against colonialism, apartheid, and genocide) is much more common on the left side of the issue though, and that a lot of the right wingers hopping onto it are doing so because they associate israel with Jews and want to attempt to use the antizionist momentum to be antisemitic

Fair fair. Antisemites trying to call themselves antizionists reminds me of right-wingers pretending to be antifa with the goal of poisoning the public’s perception of the movement

Yeah those people define Zionism as a worldwide Jewish conspiracy for domination of non-Jews. Very different from what normal people define as Zionism.
