    It’s so pervasive there are people who describe themselves as anarchists and zionists as if those things are possibly compatible. And there are a lot of them especially online.

          I really don’t want to look either, I never imagined this deranged position existed but people are always pushing the limits of innovation.

            I think for the most part it’s just “my side and its allies good, their collective enemies bad”, and a lot of people do not think about politics past that unless someone presses them for a deeper moral reason (that they arrive backwards at)

              Anarchists who consider Zionists as allies on their side though? Haha

                It’s likely extremely common in people that venerate Kibbutzes as models of socialism.

      And there are a lot of them especially online.

      They are far from a terminally online phenomenon tbh, even if they are in a slow decline for the last decade or so (mostly because many become regular liberals or right wingers).
