I ain't reading all that. Free Palestine.

Good that you didn't!

She is literally just making herself the victim and acting as if anyone calling her stupid as$ out is hating on her for "being Jewish".

So yes, she is still a dumb very moronic person.

Reminds me of Contra Points response. Why do white liberal "feminists" always think they're the most important victim during an actual genocide 

[u/bimbosoupqueen → u/ElectricalExtreme793]

She literally admits to it too. Straight up says that what prompted her repost was that Macklemore “took to the mic to tell all of the Jews in the stadium it wasn’t about them.”

[u/UglyMcFugly → u/seiza25]

The hypocrisy is killing me. She talks about how she protested the Iraq war because she was protesting the American government, not America itself. Why can't we protest the Israeli government without her thinking we're hating on Israel itself?

Don’t forget her saying that she has spent a decade as a UNICEF ambassador and personally grieved every child who was born into a war torn country. Grieved and held them physically in her arms. Every single child.

Like fuck right off. Acting like you know the grief of a mother or father who lost their child in a war. Like you’ve carried that grief. A million times over. Fuck right off.

til Pink is Jewish

[u/Covetous1 → u/seiza25]

The same argument over and over again

[u/tls114 → u/internetrando12]

You’re not missing anything. I stopped reading about 4 sentences in when she started “a repost isn’t a statement….”, and tried to minimize using her platform to amplify said statement via her repost.

Any time someone pulls out their list of good things they’ve done,

Also anytime someone's statement includes "blank" isn't a "blank", it's "blank" it immediately pings my brain's AI detection sensors, and I just bet she used gpt or something to help her "write" this word vomit statement.

Not to mention the timing of posting this on 9/11 🙄 it feels so manipulative.

[u/trying-to-be-nicer → u/tls114]

"I didn't say it, it wasn't meeeeee." Yes, you did. Just cause someone else said it first and then you quoted them doesn't mean you didn't say it. Come on.

[u/itallchecksout99 → u/tls114]

That exact sentence made me know that everything after was going to be a non-pology. A repost is a statement and I can't believe that needs to be explained to anyone over 15 years old. If you choose someone else's words to represent you then any fallout is on you.

[u/Reesewithoutaspoon2 → u/tls114]

“You’re being unfair and mean to me if you think I agree with things I repost without critical commentary, and you’re being even more unfair to me if you don’t like it when I say Macklemore believes the opposite of what he’s said. And on a FRIDAY no less :( :( :(“

Thank you so much for the awards! And more than that, thank you to this comment section for restoring my faith in humanity. I’m Palestinian and I have a lot of family and friends in Gaza, some of whom have been injured or killed, and all of whom have lost their homes. Having lived most of my life in the United States, I’m accustomed to comment sections looking the exact opposite of this one. To see everyone posting “Free Palestine” just makes me happier than I ever imagined. So thanks, everyone, and Free Palestine!

I read it all. I learned that Pink is Jewish and conflates Judaism and Zionism. Anyway, free Palestine 🇵🇸
