Insofar there's been a very ramped up effort to characterize 'zionist' as a slur so as to silence critics of the ideology, yeah.

you're saying zionists use zionism as a slur to subdue criticism of zionism? that's peak jew conspiracy.

No, I'm saying that (some) zionists characterise the use of 'zionist' as anti-semetic, more so today than in the past, but cool straw man.
