Dude accused Zelensky of being a Zionist yesterday and when asked to explain, he didn't engage.
I wrote it off as a shit post.
Accusing Zelensky of being a Zionist? From his past statements on Israel, he seems to a supporter of Israel's right to exist and admires the country for its steadfastness while being surrounded by enemies.

I don't think it's unfair to characterize him as a Zionist or that he would object. He has supported Israel's right to self defense and has repeatedly sought closer relations with Israel over the years.

If the same thread allows shitposts like this
then that post is fine as well.
shoulderoforion is a Zionist himself. This is not the antisemitic accusation, you might suspect.
Other gems from the thread
Truly a deeply intellectual debate on the highest level!
