"Understanding the relationship between Zionism and Fascism" is a great food for thought article. It's the text of Alana Lentin's talk in:
Is Zionism fascist? What will judges think?
https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=nIRjApDpJrs&pp=0gcJCR4Bo7VqN5tD
"In popular definitions of fascism it is detached from nationalism and associated most strongly with authoritarianism. Israel’s self-presentation as a liberal democracy, the result of a national self-determination project, and even an anticolonial Indigenous manifestation, conflicts with dominant ideas of what fascism is. But this approach to fascism is elusive by design."

Israel is not a race.
Condemning genocidists isn’t discrimination. Israel’s apartheid regime is discrimination.
Israelis are settler colonialists. That’s not a slur, it’s a fact.
No one is committing genocide against Israelis. The only people committing genocide are the Israelis.

The document [..] framing the military campaign not as a unilateral American decision, but as part of a coordinated war effort aligned with Israeli objectives”

Israeli soldiers have been looting civilian property on a large scale from homes and businesses in southern Lebanon with the knowledge of their commanders, Haaretz reported on Thursday.
As Israeli troops leave Lebanon, they openly load stolen goods onto their vehicles without attempting to conceal them.

I’m an elderly lefty, living in South West England who’s looking for a nice place in the fediverse where I can share/ learn/ politely disagree etc with others & (occasionally) vent my frustrations & concerns about the parlous state of the world that my grandkids are growing up in! When I’m not “doom scrolling” I enjoy gardening, bird watching, bread baking & being the best granddad I can be.

“The Settler’s Grin: How One Italian Magazine Cover Exposed Monstrosity of Greater Israel”

“On April 10th 2026, the Italian weekly L’Espresso hit newsstands with a cover that has sent the Zionist apparatus into full meltdown. Titled ‘L’Abuso’ (‘The Abuse’), the image shows an armed Israeli settler — dressed in military fatigues, kippah on his head, peyot curls dangling — sneering with sadistic delight as he films a visibly distressed Palestinian woman with his phone. She stands among olive trees on what remains of her ancestral land, her face a mask of pain and exhaustion during the annual olive harvest”

Dear reply-and-block hasbara bot at @coffeebits@101010.pl (please feel free to report and block),
Zionism is not a race.
Zionism isn’t even a religion.
Zionism is a settler colonialist, genocidal ideology.
Not all Jews are Zionists and not all Zionists are Jews.
And it’s not libel if it’s true.
