This rule is weirdly incongruous with the others, given the anodyne dictionary definition of “Zionism”. Does it serve rather as a kind of ideological litmus test to exclude certain viewpoints - and indeed certain people - from this community? How is that defensible?

I’m a European who believes in tolerance. Having just noticed this egregiously discriminatory statement of values, I’m now thinking that I will not feel at home in this community.

PS: I see without surprise that this is not going to generate worthwhile debate. As a liberal (not Jewish and I generally vote green), I did see the health warning about “left-anarchism” (whatever, there’s overlap). I was pretty pleased to discover this community. But I don’t think I can continue contributing when there’s literally a rule condoning ethnic discrimination. That’s something that fascists do. It’s certainly not the European spirit. Bye.

    for a community concerning Europe

    Because european countries are supporting genocide. That’s how it’s related.

    I’m a European who believes in tolerance.

    You can tolerate people who support genocide and imperialism, but not tolerate people who are against that?

    As a liberal (not Jewish and I generally vote green),

    Not surprising. I have friends who are jewish and they are staunchly anti-zionist. Who are you to dictate that?

    I’m now thinking that I will not feel at home in this community.

    There’s always [email protected]

    condoning ethnic discrimination

    What the fuck? The rule says ZIONIST, not JEWISH. I’ve seen actual anti-semitism on this instance and have shot it down very fast, but i have absolutely no love for zionists.

    That’s something that fascists do. It’s certainly not the European spirit

    I see you’ve been living under a rock and haven’t opened a history book.

    Edit:

    I’ve seen your other comments. You just go mask-off with your bullshit. Thank god this community is hostile to zionists.
