    Perhaps I’m misunderstanding something somewhere. The original post seems to be saying, “don’t assume just because we support buying European we support Israel/Zionism”.

    Movements that lean towards buying local often have a political leaning as well, I know that’s often the case in the US anyway that they lean right-wing (but not always like many union workers who support buying domestically but lean left).

    I think the post is, “yeah we support X movement but we also support Y. Don’t assume you’re welcome here with that bullshit.” Which we’re on Lemmy, so it makes perfect sense a “buy local” movement would not support Zionism and modern settler colonialism.
