    I don’t remember where I read it but some Zionists do not consider non/anti Zionist Jews to be real Jews. So yes, they would consider this antisemitic. If I find the source I’ll add it here.

      So long as we are anecdotal, that has not been my experience.

      Judgments along observance lines, and people thinking those in some denominations are crazy or lesser, but I haven’t seen it drawn on those lines.

      Generally the same kind of a thing you’ll find in any religion, or any fandom for that matter— those who are more observant or more dedicated may say the less observant/dedicated aren’t doing it right; the less observant/more casual may say the more observant/dedicated are crazy.

          It’s possible that @ABCDE@lemmy.world replied to an earlier version of my comment where it said ‘for many Israeli’s’ or something like that. I edited my comment before I saw their reply. Anyway, I edited my initial reply for clarity but I don’t think it will help because my phrasing makes it sound like I’m the one who thinks the director’s comments are antisemitic. I don’t.

            The confusing bit is that “Zionist, non-zionist or anti-zionist” reads like a list lacking an Oxford comma. You have to realize that reading makes no grammatical or logical sense then go back and realize the intended syntax.

            A more clear way to put it might be: “but some Zionists do not consider non/anti Zionist Jews to be real Jews. So yes, they would consider this antisemitic”
