I agree with Norm Finkelstein that Jewish supremacist is the better term. Nobody wants an intellectual lecture about who owns what land and how semitic monotheism began in the 6th century BCE so inherently ALL Semites have equal claim to all this shit, but after 70 years of inundation about protestant white racial hierarchy being bad, we all get what is meant by Jewish supremacy, and if you're not one, you'll agree it has gone too far and needs to be stopped.
I like this one. White folks of good intentions in general have learned they have to distinguish themselves socially from the white supremacists.
There are many Jewish people who try to do the same and separate themselves from the genocidal members of that grouping. The term “Jewish supremacist” is a lot cleaner and easier to sell than “Zionist”.
“Zionist” just invites sealioning because then you get into whether Israel should exist at all and that’s just a damn mess.
