You’re entirely right.
But see if the political view is only held by members or a certain religious group (even if not all members of said religion accept said political thought), it’s easy to conflate it, so that you can ban anyone opposing said political thought based on “they’re discriminating against me because of my religion”.
Fuck twitch.
Well, I guess, but… you could argue that Zionists are mostly seen to be purely Jewish due to the nature of the movement.
