> Are all Jewish persons zionists and/or communists?

They're not all called Rothschild either, that's not really the point.

> Is that being implied in the post?

No. The post is using standard euphemisms for Jews that are commonly used in anti-semitic literature.

Well, I had to search for the actual terms, because I didn't find them in the post. They're in a comment to the post. So the actual post isn't even using "euphemisms".

In any case, my point is that "zionist" isn't a euphemism for "Jew" or "Jewish". It describes a specific political (at least) ideology - which has radical, extremist militants.

"Zionist" cannot be anti-semite unless one believes all Jewish persons are zionists.

I understand why radical zionists would want to pass that on as true, but it's not.

Many Jewish people oppose Zionism on political, humanitarian and religious grounds.

Yes it is. It doesn't literally mean Jewish but it absolutely is used as a euphemism for Jewish.

It's usually easy to tell the difference. If it's being used in the context of the social and political events leading up to the establishment of the state of Israel then it's likely to be the literal meaning.

If it's being used in almost any modern context, but especially in the context of conspiracies, secrets or money, then it's very likely to be euphemistic. And anti-semitic.

Correct, it's not even obfuscating the fact that they're merely referring to "Jews". Being pro-Israel is hardly the defining factor as to why they've been signaled out.
