anti-zionism is definitely a normal political position here.

By the way, as I understand it, Zionism is to give "Jewish people a place to live".

By that definition, what Israel's currently doing is anti-Zionist, because their behavior is damaging their reputation in the world, while Ireland's criticism of the war is in that sense pro-Zionist.

Please try to use the definitions of widely used words by their popularly accepted understandings instead of individualist interpretations. Especially in regards to contentious and politically charged words such as zionism, an ideological movement for (originally) the re-establishment and (now) the development and expansion of an ethnically Jewish nation in what is now Israel.

-- Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed. --

-- All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. --

-- If you are citing a twitter post as news please include not just the twitter.com in your links but also nitter.net (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/ or archive them as you would any other reactionary source using e.g. https://archive.today . Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed --

-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--

-- Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned. --

-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --
