Zionism is not anti-semitism for a very simple reason, being against the apartheid state of Israel and its genocide of Palestinians has nothing to do with being against Jews or Judaism. They are seperate concepts period, end of story.

Judging by the rest of your comment, I think you meant anti-zionism is not anti-semitism.

With that said, I agree wholeheartedly.

    Personally I've always found it quite antisemitic to prescribe all people of the Jewish faith the opinions of the state of Israel, and in turn hold them accountable for the states actions.

    When people say anti Zionism is equivalent antisemitism that's what they are doing, and in turn removing all agency from people of the Jewish faith.

    I have yet to ask people who make the argument about this though, but I assume it'd be a shitstorm.

    For sure. Zionism itself is very anti-Semitic for that reason.

    I was correcting a typo in the post above.
