is anti-zionism antisemitism? even when coming from jews?
**This really reads like a baiting āgotchaā question but because I have 0 self control and itās an issue Iām passionate about, Iāll answer it. However, this is going to be one of the few asks I answer about the Israel-Palestine conflict so please donāt bother even sending anymore in.**
First and foremost we need to define some terms: Zionism - a word derived from the word Tziyon, meaning āJerusalemā, coined by Nathan Birnbaum to refer to Theordor Herzlās answer to the āJewish Problemā (meaning anti-semitism), which was to establish a politically independent secular state with a Jewish majority nation, in the Jewish historical and ancestral homeland.Anti-Zionism - Broadly defined as the opposition to Zionism, which may occur for a myriad of reasons, but typically as a result of perceived human rights abuses committed by the State of Israel.Ā Anti-Semitism - a word derived from the word Shem, referring to the traditional father of the Semitic nations (Hebrews, Arabs, Akkadians, Canaanites, some Ethiopians and some Aramaean tribes). It was coined in Germany in 1879 by Wilhelm Marr to replace the term āJudenhaasā which specifically, and solely, referred to the hatred, and often persecution, of Jews (Hebrews).
Secondly, we have to ask āIs it even possible for Jews to be Anti-Semitic?āThe answer to that is yes. In popular culture, these Jews are pejoratively referred to asĀ āself-hating Jewsā, which is described by Bernard Wasserstein as Jews with āinternalized elements of anti-Semitic discourse, (who have) succumbed to what (historian) Theodore Hamerow has called psychological surrender.ā There are numerous examples of them. Names like David Cole/David Stein, Benjamin H. Freedman, Paul Eisen and Bobby Fischer all spring to mind.
And lastly:Ā Is Anti-Zionism (always) Anti-Semitism? Even when coming from Jews?In my opinion, anti-Zionism isnāt alwaysĀ Anti-Semitic, but 9 times out of 10, itās either a guise for anti-semitism, or the proponent is unaware that they are applying an anti-semitic double standard. Let me explain.For example, an anti-Zionist proponent may campaign against perceived human rightās abuses occurring because of or in the State of Israel (which is the worldās only Jewish-majority state), but then they may not also campaign against the same or similar abuses occurring in other non-Jewish states; [To go on a slight tangent: This is actually a common Zionist critique against the UN Human Rights Council, 38% of whose resolutions are against Israel - making Israel the UNās most condemned nation - despite 49 other nations in the world being recognised as governed by authoritarian regimes. In fact, in 2018 alone, the UNHCR made 21Ā resolutions against Israel with nations like North Korea receiving only 1, Myanmar receiving only 1, Syria only receiving 1 and Saudi Arabia receiving 0.]In some cases, anti-Zionists may altogether oppose the very existence of Israel as a Jewish-majority state, but then at the same time, not oppose the existence of the 48 Muslim-majority states, 53 Roman Catholic-majority states, 23 Protestant-majority states and 4 Hindu-majority states.Ā Now, thatās not to say that Israel is immune, or even unworthy of criticism, and that all criticism of Israel is anti-semitic.Ā No state or nation should be exempt from criticism. Allowing that criticism is apart of the democratic process, and that criticism isnāt always anti-semitic. However, criticism of Israel crosses over into the territory of anti-semitism when it is unevenly applied to the worldās only Jewish-majority nation, when it calls for Israelās annihilation (which is frankly, whether intentionally or not, a call for another Holocaust chas vāchalila) or when it uses anti-semitic canard. I thinkĀ @this-is-not-jewishās postĀ How to Criticize Israel Without Being Anti-SemiticĀ is a solid guide on how to criticise Israel without crossing over into this territory.Ā (TL;DR) Writer Gary Kulwin summarised all of these points best in 2017 when he wrote:āIf you oppose one ethnic groupās nation-state in the name of international brotherhood, but donāt have any problems with the continued existence of any other nation-state, then you are inconsistent at best, probably a hypocrite, and quite possibly ā whether you admit it to yourself or not ā antisemitic.āSo no anti-Zionism isnāt always anti-Semitic (in my opinion) but if your anti-Zionism doesnāt pass āThe Kulwin Testā, it is - even if youāre Jewish.Ā

i'm hotter than i think i am but i'm also uglier than i think i am. won't elaborate
the biggest lesson i learned this year is to not force anything; conversations, friendships, relationships, attention, love. anything forced is just not worth fighting for. whatever flows flows, what crashes crashes, itās what it is.

I donāt care how you see me because I donāt see you at all
for everyone who needs to hear this today:
break out of the cycle of having to explain yourself to people who do not want to understand you. you donāt owe people explanations for how you feel, for the good that you do to yourself and the steps you take for the betterment of your self internally. some people are fixated on misunderstanding you, on making you feel doubtful in the matters you are going through. they do not listen to understand you, they listen to argue with you. you donāt owe them an explanation. you donāt need to justify your emotions against the scale of what youāre going through and their opinions. they havenāt lived in your skin to know you the way you know yourself.
