For this reason I don't even use the term Zionist; i feel like most people are sincere when they say they oppose Israel. But some are just using "look at these Zionists" as a find and replace for Jews and then hiding behind palestine when they get called on it.

For that reason I always criticize the specific thing someone's doing that I don't like, and I do think people need to be more careful about letting the right take on left talking points as a way to try to peel people off.
