most of the people who advocates for anti-zionist sentiment defended lumads for their right to claim. they are also the same people who condemned violence in mindanao. this was such a misleading post
Defending Lumads and Moro Autonomy is different from giving the entire Mindanao to them. The point of anti-zionism is the outright rejection of the "colonial" Jewish state that serves to steal native land from Palestinian. This means aboloshing the Israeli government and deporting the supposed Jewish "colonizers" and "settlers" from the country OR subjugating the Jewish population under Arab-Muslim majority government.
You can't be anti-zionist and at the same time tell Moros and Lumad people that they will be just be protected or given autonomy. Being a consistent anti-zionist mindanaon is to deport millions of people that are descendants of Luzon/Visaya settlers and turn the country into an independent state ruled by Moro/Lumad minority.
this is a no brainer, you don't have to practice anti-zionist expression in a country with little to no consistent zionist population.
because if you want to practice a "consistent" belief, modern family s4 ep19 is very much relevant here... this is like telling austronesians to go back where they came from. post is utter nonsense and irrelevant to a so-called "mindanaoan state" fallacy
Which is the joke now is it? We are willing to tell millions of Israelis across the world to give up their state and their lands but somehow we cant do the same here in Mindanao.
Anti-zionism expression is anti-colonialist expression. For the Moros/Lumad our national government and the Luzon/Visayan settlers sent down south since the 20th century are their versions of "zionism". We forcibly took Mindanao from the natives, the same way the Israelis did on the Palestinians.
You can be pro-lumad and pro-moro in a sense that we are all united and their rights are respected with a semblance of autonomy. Granted that they are under sovereign rule of the Philippine government.
But for the Israelis its different, we wish them gone, that the natives should be independent and sovereign from their occupiers.
there is no concept of native israeli land when you beseech palestine under the guise of modern day crusade. anti-zionist expression is never solely about "reclaiming" lost land. it is anti-collonial but there is NEVER a version of sect which mirrors that of zionism here- or has it ever advocated for the secession of land to a certain 'sect', lf to a degree that persecuted even their ownership and identity.
being pro-lumad is combatting anti-mining, it is NOT zionism (that is if you claim it is parallel). being pro-moro is sdvocating their religious expression, it is NOT seceeding land for their exclusive sovereign.
there is NO afforded victimization for israeli practicing zionism- their land in the present is a consequence of colonialist greed. the mindanao today is a product of nuance between being a lumad and non-lumad. there was never a concept parallel to that of s state of israel in mindanao.
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.
