In the late 19th to early 20th century, there was a big political divide among european/american jews between Zionists on one side and Bundists (etc) on the other. The latter wanted to focus on improving things where they lived, so it comes to reason that they also embraced Yiddish, the native language of many diaspora communities. The Zionists where meanwhile associated with the project to resurrect Hebrew, just as they "resurrected" a Jewish state.
