Intersectionality is a great analytical tool. Jewish Voice for Peace found themselves to be in the intersection of being both Jewish and anti-zionists. German government policies and often German people (even from the left or antifa), fail take this intersection into consideration.

But do we really need this analytical tool for this topic? When a person knows the historical relation between zionism and fascism, why would they support zionists or zionist policies?

that doesn’t mean you can’t be GENETICALLY Jewish

One cannot be genetically Jewish, since anyone can convert into this religion.
Is that clear enough?

According to zionists and their allies, only.

Take a look at what Jewish Voice for Peace have to say:

Our Approach to Zionism

Jewish Voice for Peace is guided by a vision of justice, equality and freedom for all people. We unequivocally oppose Zionism because it is counter to those ideals.
(…)
Palestinian dispossession and occupation are by design. Zionism has meant profound trauma for generations, systematically separating Palestinians from their homes, land, and each other. Zionism, in practice, has resulted in massacres of Palestinian people, ancient villages and olive groves destroyed, families who live just a mile away from each other separated by checkpoints and walls, and children holding onto the keys of the homes from which their grandparents were forcibly exiled.
(…)

Criticizing zionism and israeli settler colonialism is not antisemetic either.

The segment of DW above was like a response to this comment:

Right, because Germany is acting so awfully one-sided.

Since Germany has not even recognized the right to exist of Palestine, having to recognize the right of existence of Israel in order to get a citizenship, seems to me awfully one-sided.

If I understand correctly it is still a debate. A one-sided, one.

Also in relation to your comment:

Pledging loyalty to Israel and recognizing that Israel has a right to exist sound like very different things to me.

The way I see it, it’s more “Pledging loyalty to Israel by recognizing that Israel has a right to exist”

Germany debates tying citizenship to Israel loyalty - Deutsche Welle - December 8 2023

Saxony-Anhalt, a state in Germany has done what many around the country are calling for: If you want to be a citizen of Germany, you need to pledge allegiance to Israel. The legality of this remains unclear.

Effective immediately, those applying forGerman citizenship in the east-central state of Saxony-Anhalt must declare their support for Israel’s right to exist. This “commitment” is part of new language that state interior minister, Tamara Zieschang, informed relevant authorities about in a ministerial decree this week.

Failing to do so would deny naturalization to foreigners who otherwise fulfill the necessary conditions for obtaining German nationality. Under the new guidelines, applicants would have to sign a declaration that they “recognize Israel’s right to exist and condemn any efforts directed against the existence of the state of Israel.”

Definitely my bad, since this is a Poland thread.

I guess having so many years Orban in power does leave its mark.

Freedom of speech is different from country to country, and it tends to have some limitations that are regulated through constitution and/or laws. From the top of my head I remember this example that you can’t scream Fire in a theatre, threaten people, tell lies about them. I mean you can, but you may also get sued for it, and get convicted.

Anyways, not too sure how censorship and freedom of speech snuk in a conversation on privilege?

To my understanding, meritocracy is a tricky notion. It also implies that if you are dispossessed, you are to be blamed, and systemic injustices are to be left alone.
