Most Jews aren't Zionists.
Zionism is not Judaism.
Anyone who calls you antisemitic immediately and without evidence is probably a Zionist, or confused by Zionists.
Zionists are Fascists, or Fascist Adjacent.
Is there any actual research/data on this? Every time I search it's a mixed bag between articles claiming over 90% of Jews are zionist to articles saying 'a lot more Jews than you think aren't zionists' but with no hard numbers.
A lot of people define zionism differently so those surveys that tote 90+% can't be taken at face value (https://www.jewishvoiceforlabour.org.uk/article/zionism-an-ideal-that-has-little-purhase-on-reality/ best resource that I've found on the matter).
I think it's fair to say that most jews don't like how Israel operates even if they might define themselves as a zionist due to personal/family complications (also a lot of zionist propaganda).
