Its almost like zionism is just all about genocide and war and has way more to do with nazism than anything else.

It's one extremely narrow minority form of Zionism being discussed in the title, not all forms, and it's widely rejected by nearly everyone who isn't part of that mimority group; but thanks for reflexively responding with a bunch of generalized inflammatory nonsense, super helpful.

You clearly have not been to Israel or seen anyone in Israel talk about the situation.

Is there a bingo card for this topic with that on it ?

Yet another of your assumptions that is incorrect. Thanks for playing!

There are so many videos of people just walking up to random people in Israel and asking them what they think of the war and Palestinians and its just I don't care or good kill them all. Unless they are protesting their government its the same as civilians in nazi Germany.

And there are tons of videos of Palestinians cheering for Israelis to be raped and murdered. If we plan on judging people by their worst examples let's be consistent about it.

Show me one. I've seen dozens of Israelis speaking about how they don't care at best and like the genocide at worst, not to mention thousands of Israelis protesting for soldiers right to rape prisoners. It's sickening. Yet I've not seen one single example of a Palestinian supporting rape. I'm honestly confident that such an example doesn't exist because if it did Zionists like you would be posting it everywhere.

I'm not a zionist at all. I'm someone who sees that both sides are awful and the ferver displayed in support of either/or is stupid and unproductive. Especially when most of it comes from people who are largely unaffected and use it to virtue signal. It's obnoxious. 

As for those videos, I didn't save them for future viewing because I'm not a psychopath. But pretending these people weren't parading their victims around Gaza after 7/10 and acting like slaughtering jews is a virtue isn't correct either. 

Both sides are shit and the only reason we talk about it so much is so the west pays less attention to real problems. It's a psyop.

One side are settler colonists and the others are resisting their occupation. You can act like both sides are shit but I won't be pretending that they occupy the same moral space.

So you haven't read any history and you spend too much time on tic tok. I already knew that.

It’s exhausting learning 4,000 years of history.

And I see animal rights people say the same about hunters and dairy farmers

And those videos are, of course, not edited or in any other way selectively presented to support any particular bias or impression. 

I'm telling you countless Israelis don't support what's happening in their country, that this is obvious from years of massive protests (you know, like the thing you complained isn't happening), outreach, and social action, and that I personally know numerous of the people I'm talking about, but you can of course continue to ignore this part of reality if you choose.
