Zionism is a political movement that was born in the late nineteenth century. It doesn't mean "simply in favor of Jewish self-determination." It is a political project with multifaceted expressions, all of which have led to the subjugation of Palestinians under apartheid.
Anyone who wants you to believe Zionism means "just Jewish self-determination" or wants you to think that Zionism is some sort of ancient principle of Judaism:
1- has a vested interest in conflating Jewish people with a state (yikes!)
2- is committed to historical revisionism
3- is committed to a world-view which requires antisemitism to continue to persist unfettered
4- has contempt for the passage of Jewish history
It's not shocking that the antisemites and nazis in the federal government are promoting Zionism while actively creating a world that is more dangerous for Jews. this is literally what they want, and Jewish Zionists are like, cool, this is great.
This is what decades of voting for politicians who are "good for Israel" has gotten us, ya shitbags! This is on you!
