Do a lot of slurs have a wikipedia page?
I actually do think “zionist” is in itself a fairly useless term for the Israeli apartheid question (as Norman Finkelstein and Judith Butler do too).
Do any of the forms of zionism (a belief that they should own the land) involve market purchases of the land they would like? (instead of settler colonial theft?)
Yes, probably most of them…

So yeah. Not that ‘Zionist’ is a slur
Zionists really captured that platform.
You forgot your /s
I would like to see a version where it’s pro Israel and zionist quote or terrorist quote
Congrats on your Bush era islamaphonia you ghoul
Once genz matures, public opinion on Israel will shift. I hope Israel enters the “and find out” stage.
Fuck 'em, disgusting parasites leeching on US might to commit a genocide. Americans will pay for this too…
next 9/11: why would anybody do this to us 🤡
sad reality many of us did not sign up to fund the genocide but AIPAC was able to infiltrated state and corpos from within while avoiding foreign agent registration.
our spooks are fucking useless…
But Zionism isn’t a religion, it’s a nationalist movement.
sooo twitch declares the Zionist movement offensive? and should only discussed in sn academic sense? /s
wow twitch, very brave!!
Good thing I’m an anti-zionist then I suppose.
Are they gonna lock up genocide joe for hate crimes?
Can we make Twitch a slur for terrible tech companies.
All tech companies eventually enshitify and we would never be able to remember all of them if they all became slurs. Lol
Twitch has become garbage anyway. I’m more on Kick for streams nowadays.
Anyway wasn’t “Zionist” suppose to be a good term for these murderers? Whether they make it a banable word, screw them. Those who defend Israel, their genocidal actions and claim that the land “belongs to them, the colonizers” are Zionists.
Even technologically Twitch has always been shit. For all the hate YT rightfully deserves, I’m kinda glad they just said “ok we do livestreaming now too” one day and it works so much better. Simply so I never have to use twitch ever again.
The issue with YouTube is, I don’t see many people on it to Stream (or I just don’t look in the right direction?). I barely to not use Twitch these days, sometimes Kick but that’s about it.
Twitch is garbage, so you moved to a platform ran by a gambling company, where rules practically don’t exist, and the majority of the userbase is vehemently sexist and racist? That’s a level of mental gymnastics I genuinely will never understand
Yeah, totally!
Ewww
@Alsephina okay, how about “the baddies”?;)
Hey everybody has a right to a racist ethnostate how dare people criticize the idea.
From the link of this post that you could have clicked on:
Twitch specifies this is conditional: you’re allowed to discuss the political movement of that name, but not “attack or demean another individual or group of people on the basis of their background or religious belief.”
but not “attack or demean another individual or group of people on the basis of their background or religious belief.”
Yeah, how dare people try to demean someone just because they checks notes hold dehumanizing beliefs and support a government and movement bent on removing the people from their land so they can steal it and build new homes while ethnically cleansing the existing population.
smh my head.
OK, so people can use the definition instead. In fact it might be more useful.
Terrorists?
I’m still not sure what it means, judging by the comments here it (murderer / terrorist etc) it does seem to be used as a slur. So yeah, using the definition instead would be useful.
Terrorist isn’t a slur. Or are you saying criticizing ISIS was biggoted?
I just told you I I’m not sure of the definition, so asking me what I think it means is pointless. Though I’m pretty sure it’s not a group you can join like ISIS, right?
They’re saying that in the same way terrorist is not always a slur but is used as a slur sometimes, Zionist can be used as a slur. 8 think it’s a fair take. It’s odd to specifically list Zionist as a contextual slur when you can just say no slurs.
I don’t know if I fully agree but that’s their argument as I understand it.
If you refer to the Muslim man in the bomb vest as a terrorist its fine, if you refer to all muslim men as terrorists its a slur.
Refering to Israeli generals and politicians as Zionists is fine, If you refer to all Jewish people as Zionists…
I figured zionism had to do with an ideology, not a profession. Generalisations like these are not helping.
Falsehood is fruitless from the start so don’t worry, Truth always prevails as they say
Meanwhile, nobody has attempted to give a definition. Lots of downvotes all around though. 🤷🏼♀️
Nobody is referring as all Jews as zionists. Actually it’s zionists and Israel defender who want you to believe that anti zionism is anti Judaism
Yup, that’s it.
I mean, is nazi a slur?
If you do something like refer to all white people or all Germans as Nazis then yeah, in that context it’s a slur. But just referring to members of the Nazi party, definitely not. Extreme far right folks, personally no, I don’t view it as a slur there. Some people may disagree (probably the extreme far right people being called Nazis).
Next, “apartheid” will be anti-Semitic.
It’s great how people are gathering and having discussions under heavily censored platforms owned by billionaries, just amazing.
And on top of that, pretty much all the platforms, even all the way down to this one, are censored in at least one increasingly-relevant way.
At least we can still talk about butt stuff in peace.
