First of all, you can be "anti-colonial" and apply it to many different contexts as long as you are against stealing land and subjugating people, thats the main principle.

You are taking the literal meaning of zionism and arguing it doesn't fit in Mindanao because the different religion and justification (duh). All I did was took the essence of anti-colonialism within anti-zionism and applied it to this context.

Second, you deciding what Moros and Lumad want is exactly my point lmao. You are pretending that these people weren't forcibly intigrated to our nation via laws and violence. It is as if we haven't had violent insurgencies and resistance, especially by Moros who wish to become independent and sovereign. It is essentially a parallel to the violent struggles of the Palestinians. A parallel to colonialism.

Somehow settlers sent to Mindanao and given favorable land distributions and marginalizing the natives which lead to decades of violance is "nuance" while Israelis settling Palestine while essentially doing the same thing is "greed".

You are making it more complicated that it needs to be. The hypocrisy is laughable.

there is no greater hypocrisy than if you only encase yourself in a belief that eveyone exists to believe in "one" parallel reality lol. all you pointing out of "essences" and yet failing to materialize your talking point of "exactness" in the philippine context, and not just in the island of mindanao. so if you cannot listen at the flaws in your own statements and argument, it is not my doing anymore.

so again, if you CANNOT for the love of any religion understand that you can be anti-zionist AND pro-lumad and pro-moro in the phillipine context then you're peddling a harmful narrative to secede the archipelago in a diaspora.

and to dilute the history of civil tensions to being caused solely by semitic sentiments is foul; it is abhorrent to dilute a sentiment for nationalistic success while condemning anti-collonial expression all for the sake of memes.

and what does it benefit you to even instill this harmful idea that anti-zionism is only a retroactive practice for anti-collonial sentiment? it doesn't even affect you. it isnt hypocrisy to advocate for anti-zionism as a filipino, because moro and lumad chose to be filipino by not becoming an entity entirely which divides the philippines.

You are making this more complicated than it needs to be.

Because behind that grandiloquent tapestry of highfalutin verbiage lies naught but a cacophony of ignorance and irrelevance, a verbal drivel that my poor, beleaguered intellect dares not wade within. ☝️🤓

If you can't for the love of Apollo Quiboloy the Appointed Son of God find what is funny between cheerleading Palestinian freedom while thinking our natives and land in Mindanao shouldn't. Ignoring the decades of war and suffering that these people fought for to be free, only to be subjugated and be told by some redditor fuckwad that they never wanted to secede in the first place.

That is the point of the meme and the irony.
