I remember in 2016, anti-zionist arguments were considered Neo-Nazi Talking points. Look how things have conveniently changed now that there is war in the former promised land of Canaan.

This is what people do. They decide what the rules are, and how people should interpret what they see. You cannot take anything you see at face value, anymore - the game is for the ambitious to use definitions to manipulate the ignorant for their beliefs, not to make the world a better place to live in. This isn't about what's good or evil - this is about ideology. The history past a certain date isn't supposed to matter - depending on who's answering. If this conflict ends peacefully it will not for long - neither the Isrealis or the Palestinians are going to just sit wherever they are and forget what happened, regardless of whoever "wins". People can talk about what's right and wrong, but that doesn't undo the consistently aggressive relationship between these two groups of people over the past couple thousand years or so. What's "good" suddenly doesn't matter when everything is as messed up as it has been for a long time, now. What would be "good" is if people stopped killing or brutalizing each other - but we know that's not going to happen, not without some big (or fantasically divine) intervention.
