including the entire nation of Ireland apparently.

    Kanye West is antisemitic but particularly on this conflict, he hasn’t commented (as far as I know). One TMZ interviewer asked him about it and Kanye replied something along the lines of “I don’t know enough…ask me about the dying kids in Chicago, that’s what I’m concerned with”.

    “Hate me and mine for ethnic reasons, that’s fine, but I draw the line at calling a genocidal spade a spade.”

    Ethel Cain. She released a song called From the river… very unfortunate I really loved her. (She’s trans, no doubt she’d be killed the second she steps foot in Palestine).

    Let’s make a list. You (this commenter) draw up the people Palestinians murdered for being broadly LGBTQ+ in the last 10 years, and I’ll try to write down the children IOF murdered in the last week.

    Thankfully most of my favorite artists are dead :( but I have unfollowed and blocked a lot of activists. I’m an animal rights activist and unfortunately the childishly black-and-white “total liberationist” ethos has taken over a large portion of the movement, especially the younger/newer people. Jews are oppressors and they won’t hear otherwise. I hope as time goes on they look back on this and adapt their thinking. In the meantime, I’m connecting with Jewish animal advocacy groups.

    “Black-and-white ‘total liberationist’ ethos” talking points: Genocide is wrong. Murder is wrong. Starving people is wrong.

      Not even children, just list the queer Palestinians killed by Israel. I guarantee it’s higher than anything Hamas is capable of.

        just list the queer Palestinians killed by Israel

        Anyone pro-Israel on queer grounds should be forced to read that heart wrenching Queering the Map post in Gaza about a queer Palestinian who never told their partner their true feelings, and now the partner is dead from an Israeli bomb
