Other rules of Wikipedia discussions still apply on this page, but this may change later based on experience and better knowledge of policies.

Response to this Talk:Zionism#Use of term 'colonization' in opening sentence / definition

Nishidani, I never said that the Arabs should be expelled. First of all, I didn't say that I subscribe to the idea the Zionism is decolonization. In fact I don't subscribe to it, because I am not a woke who views the entire world through the lens of colonization/decolonization. I just said that this is one of the many things that some Zionists said about Zionism. And I said it partly in a tongue in cheek manner, because someone else had actually said it in the talk page of Zionism today. Second, even among those Zionists who subscribe to this idea, "decolonization" doesn't necessarily mean expulsion of anyone. It could mean just liberating a place (or part of it) from the political rule of others. But the fact that you think that the meaning of "decolonization" is necessarily "expelling" is interesting. It means that either you are against decolonization in general or in favor (or indifferent) to the expulsion of people. Which of these options is true? Vegan416 (talk) 21:00, 3 July 2024 (UTC)Reply

I'm sorry but this is terrible argumentation.
Also please try to be concise and to the point on talk pages, avoiding statements like the one you described as: "I just said that this is one of the many things that some Zionists said about Zionism. And I said it partly in a tongue in cheek manner."

What is terrible argumentation? I just stated the fact that Nishidani's claim that I think the Arabs should be expelled is false, because I don't think so. It is obvious that I know what are my opinions better than anyone else... Vegan416 (talk) 05:12, 4 July 2024 (UTC)Reply
