A Socialist Zionist and a Bundist (Workers Party in Eastern Europe)walk in to a Bar..
Two arguments as though it was a dialog between two people.
Bundist-
The socialism of the left-wing Zionist is a deliberate sham, they weir a red mask to hide their real intentions and adjust themselves to the radical zeitgeist. The zeitgeist is a philosophy that the world split by religion.
Yiddish is our language because it is the language of the masses, opposed to the Zionist who would have you take up an elitist language like Hebrew. As one Jew once said “he, who scoffs at Yiddish, scoffs at the Jewish people; he is only half Jewish”.
According to Renner and Otto Bauer Jews have the right to use their own language and develop their own education and culture. This is a dangerous utopia bound to deflect the masses from the struggle for political and economic rights and to weaken their consciousness.
It is simply not logistically possible to get everyone out and we owe it to the future generations to improve the conditions in the factories. If we want socialism and radical social change we should not subscribe to the patterns and philosophies of the futile system. As the industrial age comes to maturity the same social inequalities pelage the working class and this will continue to be a problem unless we find a way to redistribute the wealth. Even if the Palestine revival works class divisions will still be a problem, so we should get rid of the class system by not identifying as Jews. We should do this especially when we are in the company of non Jews.
With the fall of the Ottoman Empire, and establishment of a constitutional government the propaganda coming out of the Reagan has been horribly ant-Semitic.
The Zionist are misleading the masses we should stay focused on the actual political struggle, by some fantasy to be realized one distant day in a remote country.
