    Yeah there’s always been this stuff but it just seems to have made it’s way in to the official statements a lot more this time around, like there isn’t that awareness of how most people perceive it that’s been keeping things less weird in the past. I could see past responses to this being something like “Jews have differing opinions on the subject of Zionism but we all agree that protecting Jewish lives and securing a safe homeland for Jews is important.” Now what used to be the extreme response is the mainstreamed one.
