What a fantastic piece. I want to send it to all the anti-Zionist Jews I know.

My wife is writing a novel that peripherally takes up the holocaust. How appalling that she has had to worry about that part of the book. I myself—a mischling—have lost complete faith with the left because of its virulent antisemitism.

I am against Zionism because I'm against all forms of ethno-centric ideologies and all forms of identity politics. It's why I signed up with FAIR. Equating Zionism with being supportive of Jews, and opposition of it as being anti-Semetic, is ridiculous. I support all ethnic groups but oppose any form of ethno-centrism or usage of the Victim Complex to justify exceptional treatment for any group.

That's your definition of Zionism. "Zionism" now has been redefined just like "woman" has been redefined, so you have your definition, and every other person has their own definition. Before all these new definitions and redefinitions, "Zionism" just means Jews having a piece of land they can call their own nation. Not that different from Irish having Ireland, Germans having Germany, Greeks having Greece, and Chinese having China, etc.

“Pseudo ethnic sect” sounds awfully Nazi to me.

there have been many pseudo ethnic sects in the world such as the klan, nazis, the nation of islam, and black Hebrew Israelites.Zionism is also one. they all commonly believe their members share an imaginary race. Nazism and Zionism also claim that they have the right to conquer a particular set of land and that they are indigenous to that land. and that they have the right to ethnically cleanse to rule it. Zionism derives that from the Torah itself where moses is commanded by the god character yahweh to commit genocide and ethnically cleanse the land of Canaan aka Palestine.ben gurion used the book of Joshua from the tanakh as a blueprint for the ethic cleansing zionists carried out in 1948 according to a speech he gave.

Nazis did not believe jews were a pseudo ethnic sect. they believed jews were a true race and not a religion. if you think what I said sounded nazi in the sense that it's something a nazi would have said you have it backward and your belief might be more nazi. study your history.start questioning zionists propaganda.

here is a direct quote from mein kampf:

"From time immemorial, however, the Jews have known better than any others how falsehood and calumny can be exploited. Is not their very existence founded on one great lie, namely, that they are a religious community, where as in reality they are a race? "

nazis murdered people for being in an imaginary Jewish race even when those people had joined a different religion. I am claiming that jews are not a race. that would be blasphemy to Nazism. and a lot of zionists.

How about we use the definition of Zionism that was established along with the state of Israel? In its Declaration of Independence, it recognizes itself as Zionist, which at the time was a pseudo ethnic sect Judaism that viewed Palestine as being rightfully ruled by Jews, which it still is. Zionism only came into existence as a sect of Judaism to conquer Palestine for the exclusive privilege of Jews as an imaginary race / ethnic group. That is historical; whatever your definition of Zionism is is a political tool of Zionism itself.

And a “German” is anyone who is a German citizen. The notion that “Germans” as a race have a right to rule land is Nazi stuff.

Fair is clearly a Zionist gig and it has shown that its concern for challenging racialist ideology ends once the interests of Zionist Israel are put on the table.
