Lol, It’s crazy that people have been misusing terms like Zionist and Nazi so frequently that they’ve lost their inherent meaning.

How exactly does one become both a Zionist and a Nazi?

You’re so propagandized that you are conflating two opposing ideologies.

Can’t wait to hear your amazing logic about how nazism and zionism are incompatible.

Well… The former is fascist state that expanded its holdings by specifically targeting the latter.

Aspects of Zionism (especially modern) can empower a fascist government, however Zionism as a whole started as a response to European racism.

You can only equate the two as the same if you ignore everything up until the 20th century.

What if I look at the theocratic ethno state that exists right now and listen to their leaders openly discuss how they must secure the existence of their people and a future for their jewish children by committing genocide? Cause the seems pretty nazi-like to me.

Zionism is about Jews having land. I wonder, who wanted to give Jews Madagascar? 😲

Nazism is a secular form of fascism , Zionism is a form of theocratic fascism. Biggest funders of Zionism was the third reich

Nazism is a secular form of fascism , Zionism is a form of theocratic fascism.

Both of these claims are highly reductive… Claiming Nazism was secular ignores the complicity of the church’s role in the Nazi party and the Holocaust.

Zionism isn’t a form of fascism, though it can be supported by a fascist government.

Biggest funders of Zionism was the third reich

Zionism has been a thing since the 19th century and continues into the 21st century, the third Reich only lasted 20 years… No the third reich was not the largest funder of the Zionist movement.

Not all bad geopolitical events can be defined as fascist.

No it doesn’t. Fascism as definition uses what suits them best and what’s give them power, they are opportunists. The church was a good way for them.

Zionism isn’t a form of fascism, though it can be supported by a fascist government.

Hard to be nice colonialists though.

Ok , if you like to split hairs, biggest funders of the state of Israel and it’s colonies at its formation.

True only the fascists ones.

Google generic fascism. And nazi support for Israel.

you people found your angle to attack rhetoric you don’t like.

People who don’t ignore historical context?

comparing Zionists to Nazis is based on their nationalism and commitment to oppression and genocide.

Again, reductive. Based on your own criteria basically every powerful nation today can be accused of being a Nazis.

By that criteria the Han were Nazis when they overthrew the Manchus, the American governments were Nazi when they expanded west. When you lose definitional context, all of history and it’s lessons begin to become opaque.

By just saying any act of colonialism or ethnic violence gets lumped in as Nazism, it redirects the blame from those who committed the acts to generalized ideologies that you associate with the third Reich.
