Also, aside from the obvious and important matters of you should care about Palestinians and you should care about trans women and there's an active genocide against the former and increasing violence and genocidal rhetoric towards the latter...
From a purely self-interested point of view, zionism won't save Jews and transmisogyny won't save trans men. Do you really, honestly, think that punching down will make you a Good One in the eyes of Christian whiteness/patriarchal gender? It's unacceptable to get blood on your hands to be "one of the good ones," but also counterproductive--Jews are called increasingly insular and warmongering, TME trans people become the centre of "trans people eat their own," and Doing A Genocide isn't going to stop white Christian supremacy or the removal of trans people and medical transition from public life. You should never commit evil in the name of safety in the first place, but these evils aren't even making you safer!!!
Israel's existence has made me less safe as a Jew, and transmisogyny has made me less safe as a trans man, but some people would rather cry that their oppression comes from the people they're (metaphorically or LITERALLY) killing in the hopes of some sort of dumbass conformist/insular "safety" than actually combat where antisemitism and transphobia are coming from
