At the risk of attracting the wrong people to this blog - I think the reason why some of you get really offended when people call you, celebrities you like, organizations you support, companies you buy from, etc., zionists, is because a lot of you actually don't know what zionism is.
I think there is a preconceived notion that a zionist is someone who calls Palestinians slurs, openly supports genocide, chants death to arabs while getting their coffee or something along those lines, and granted there are a lot like this, but a zionist is someone who supports the existence of the state of Israel - and if you know your history of al-nakba, al-naksa, Palestinian land theft, settler colonialism, massacres, displacement going back over a century - you'd know why this is inherently a bad thing.
It's why statements like "I support Israel and Palestine", "I support a two-state solution", "I want peace for both sides" or "Israel and Palestine both have a right to exist" are always intrinsically zionist. Actually learn what these terms mean because some of the things I see you guys calling 'pro-Palestine' are still rooted in zionism.
