People have a knee-jerk reaction to the terms of anti-Zionism or anti-Semitism. I used to as well. However, keep in mind that sometimes some unpleasant truths come from some very unpleasant sources. What got me eventually is the general lack of criticism of Israel and Jews in the press and media. kim4432's response is very good and generally on point. What's hateful about reddit is that they won't even allow this stuff. Here, you don't have to read it. Just scroll past it if you like. But if you do read it, you may learn something.

I'll give you an example of my own learning: All my life I thought of the Nazi Holocaust as a purely Jewish event. When I read history of the holocaust, I was amazed to find that it was not just 6 million Jews that were killed but 8 million others; Gypsies, Communists, Mentally and Physically Handicapped people etc. I was living in Los Angeles at the time where they have not one but TWO Holocaust Museums. I went to both of them and did not see one word of anything other than the Jews that were killed. There is no question that Jews have hijacked the Holocaust narrative.

Again, I think that what we are not allowed in America is even the slightest skepticism of Zionism, Jews and America's blind and loyal support for them. I don't think you realize how much of that is done by the Jewish Lobbyists in Washington. I'm not one to claim a global conspiracy, but these dots do connect.

I take extreme ani-Zionism and anti-Semitism with a grain of salt. But I will always read it and then go research it on my own. Many times it's bunk. Other times I learn something.

And Poles. Ethnic Poles were killed in the gas chambers for the exact same reason: being ethnically inferior.

How many people ever heard of the trains of Poles arriving at the camps? They even had their own special badge.
