A settler colonial apartheid state is bigoted by nature. I don't understand your defense outside of the word "bigoted" making you upset when you should be more upset at the rampant colonialism and genocide being done in the name of religion.
Are you really upset because the descriptions make you sad?
Your have 3 mistakes in describing Israel as "settler colonial apartheid" alone. I cannot help you. Maybe Wikis or LLMs will or [1] as a start.
I am only sad about HN level of discussion, and how smart people in tech leave their critical thinking, kicking it out the door when the "I-word" is in the article/comment.

Judges from ICJ may need your deep learnings too, since they describe Israel policies as apartheid, too.
And as far as settler-colonial goes. Establishing your pet state on other people's land while driving out the original population with terror and violence and death marches to the front lines, while stripping them of valuables along the way and using them as human shields as Israelis like to say these days, while settling former population's land and houses, is as settler and as colonial as a [Zionist] group can get, outside of actual state establishing actual colony somewhere.
