If ~~they~~ Jews want me to hate the Jews, then as someone with no problem with Jewish people, I guess the polite thing to do is to hate the Jews.
Edit: but apparently it’s not the Jews pushing this, but specifically Zionists. In which case the above conditional is rendered moot.
Maybe it's because I am a Jew, but I would say that the polite thing to do would be to tell them to fuck off with their bullshit claims of antisemitism.
For fuck's sake, no one sets themselves on fire in the name of bigotry.
I feel like any Jew who calls any of these sorts of actions, any anti Zionist protests, anti-Semitic, is at worst a fake Jew and at best a disappointment for Jews. Because how do you support zionists, this ethnic cleansing, after Jewish people had to go through the Holocaust? The amount of mental gymnastics you have to go through to not see the equivalence between this and what Nazi Germany did is insane.
edit: removed sentence to stick to point
I would suggest to restrain from hating groups, even if some act in a way you don't agree with.
Reminds me of what Yanis said:

You dare me… wow
See, I find it hard to explain politely how the context (comment I replied to) changed after I made my comment, and that without said context my comment looks completely different… because you’re such a fucking asshat.
Please don't.
They do want you to hate Jews, Zionism is fundamentally a project about promoting antisemitism around the world to force Jews to flee to Israel. You playing into that strategy is exactly what they want.
Well, if it’s zionists wanting me to hate all Jews, then I guess I’ll have to continue being neutral to Jews, and hating zionists.
Not that I really have the energy or concentration needed to hate something for more than the instant it triggers me.
