Zionism is toast. It'll shamble along for a while because it has so much inertia, but there's no viable project anymore.

Zionists are doing what they've done since the Bronze Age, regardless of whether semitic DNA or European DNA. Unless both groups of Zionists, plus white Christians are genocide, in the United States and everywhere else, I hardly see Zionism being "toast."

not gonna happen. You underestimate the power of money and lobbies.

Public buy-in did matter, that's why they've wasted so much money and effort and credibility on trying to brainwash people to become Israel supporters. It's why the Ellison brothers are buying up all of our media. They wouldn't bother if it didn't matter.

But it's too late. We've reached a tipping point and there's no putting the toothpaste back in the tube.

It's reality. Already, population growth in Israel is negative. Without Jewish population growth there's no settler project, they simply can't get people to come to their shitty ethnostate anymore and people are trying to flee (even as Israel implements controls to keep people trapped). Combine that with public sentiment turning against Israel in both parties and there's no future for Zionism.
