Not all Jews are Zionists .. so they are not equivalent words.

eg: https://www.jewishcouncil.com.au/who-we-are

To the antisemites it’s the same thing.

I can point you to threads here on HN where negative things are said about Jews and the term “Zionists” is used interchangeably with “Jews”.

  • Misuse by idiots doesn't make them equivalent terms.

    • Depends on who’s saying it. Often times it’s obvious from the context that “Zionist” is just being used as a loophole, and pretending that the difference is then still important is disingenuous.
