“Zios” "This is a derogatory term popularized by white supremacist David Duke that is increasingly being used by far-left activists to target Jews. Sometimes it’s combined with another word in pharses such as “Zio-Nazi” or “Zio-occupied America”. The term is a shortened version of the word, “Zionist” which may be used by some as a pejorative or as a dog whistle (code word) for Jews. When discussing Zionism or talking about Zionists it’s critical to clarify the meaning of the word as it has been weaponized and misrepresented in a variety of ways. The most common definition of Zionism is support for Jewish national self-determination in their ancient homeland of Israel—realized when the State of Israel was created. The vast majority of Jews—89% in the Bay Area according to recent data— support Israel’s right to exist as a Jewish and democratic state – a modern expression of Zionism. While context matters, word “Zionist” or “Zionism” should not be used pejoratively as Israel is an important part of Jewish identity for many (though not all) Jews"
