Read from Israeli activists like Ilan Papé describe the Israeli society as a fascist supremacist society. they don't care about the right of Palestinians to live freely on their land.

I'm not arguing that what you're saying isn't true, but what does it have to do with OP's post?

Participating in the Israeli conquest and ethnic purge absolutely deserves hatred and disgust.

This goes well beyond the Israeli's right most partisan faction and extends to the entire Zionist movement.

Look, taking OP's context into account, it sounds like you're saying that you hold ethnic hatred and disgust for Jews.

I am hoping that's not what you're saying here, but again, looking at OP's meme, and your responses to it and to me, I honestly can't reach any other conclusion.

you hold ethnic hatred and disgust for Jews

Is Zionism an ethnicity? Does that mean anti-Zionist Jews aren't Jewish?

I honestly can’t reach any other conclusion

Reach harder

That's not what I'm saying. I'm saying that OP said that hatred of Jews isn't justified, and you sound like you are disagreeing.

OP said that hatred of Jews isn’t justified

Conflating anti-Zionism with anti-Semitism is a right wing Israel talking point.

I thought we established that we don't like them

I wasn't talking about all jews around the world of course not, but arguing that Jewish people living in Israel and other jews supporting Israel are just as equally as responsible as the state of Israel. you wouldn't even hear a shred of concern towards the Palestinians beings bombed by their own people with their own money.
