I’ve considered myself left wing all my life but I find the discourse around israel from the left lately quite horrifying. And to be clear I detest the current government of israel.
Anyone who supports a two state solution is a “zionist” by definition, but the word has been turned into a slur by people who don’t even know what it means.
Many seem to have convinced themselves that ethnic cleansing is OK as long as it’s “their side” doing it.
Its a depressing situation.

You know very well Zionism is a genocidal supremacist ideology and that the problem is not the current government of israel or Netanyahu but that ideology itself

No, not everybody who support a two state solution is a Zionist. You know it very well. All those countries selling weapons to Israel and provide all the diplomatic support it needs claim to want that solution, their actions simply show the opposite .

You are complaining more about potential ethnic cleansing then the state who’s goal was always this and did ethnic cleansing twice and now this is the third .
