  "account": "A viral social media trend has emerged on X, with non-Jewish users declaring themselves as Zionists in a standardized format. Over 600 such posts have been identified from nearly 550 accounts within a week, according to a Jerusalem Post analysis. The trend appears to have gained significant momentum around October 9, following a relatively low number of posts during the initial days. Users from diverse national backgrounds, including Iranian, American, Irish, and others, have participated in the trend, combining national and religious identities. The trend seems to have gained attention on X itself, with users explicitly referring to it as a trend. This emergence of solidarity with Israel and the Jewish people's right to self-determination amid global hostility marks a positive shift in social media discourse.",
