      Zionism at its most reductive and ideal is the idea that Jewish people should have a state/homeland that will never persecute them for being Jewish.

      In theory, that is what Joe Fucking Biden meant when he told a crowd of Jewish people that he was a Zionist.

      The problem starts when you start asking questions like: “How do you do that?” and the actual Zionists, surprisingly, aren’t that interested in the creation of a secular state, or what’s going to happen to the non-Jewish people already living there.

      So, that’s the meme. The conflict between the ideal and the reality, this weird thought space between concept and reality that really only takes a person thinking one step ahead to notice but liberals, like Joe Biden, didn’t and don’t.

      If you’re being generous to liberals, and not a realist who knows they’re active and knowledgeable participants.
