"As revolutionaries, we don't have the right to say that we're tired of explaining. We must never stop explaining. We also know that when the people understand, they cannot but follow us. In any case, we, the people, have no enemies when it comes to peoples. Our only enemies are the imperialist regimes and organizations." Thomas Sankara, 1985

there's seemingly a lot jewish people who are zionists and/or support israel... it's fucked.
B Empanada seems to not understand (or i'm misinterpreting him) that this demonstrates more about the Israeli PR machine than anything about being jewish.
he tends to take this point-of-view about all western citizens too. just edge lord bullshit "oh you are from the US okay you drench yourself daily in Iraqi blood" type bullshit.
I disagree with this comparison because it's completely reasonable to expect someone to be ashamed of being American or of being Israeli, but not reasonable at all to expect someone to be ashamed of being Jewish.
There's a qualitative difference between a nationality and an ethnicity/cultural group that predates any existing state.
My main problem with BE is that he's just wrong a lot of the time, and actively and materially harmful to other people who are much better leftists than him.
You are misinterpreting him. All takes on relating Zionism to Jewishness, from all people, are bad. His point is that it does not matter. If you are an anti-Zionist Jew, cool, you don't deserve extra praise. If you are a Zionist Jew, that's awful, you deserve just as much hate as any other genocide supporter.
