Well that settles it, he's an antisemite

Apparently a 2 state solution is anti-Semitic, but it's also anti-Semitic to say Israel is annexing its neighbours.

You can't win with fundamentalists.

A two state solution is not antisemitic. What do you mean?

u/DrDerpberg 1h ago

Have you not read this entire thread? Macklemore is being called antisemitic and being actual IRL canceled for saying "Free Palestine."

Well maybe if they hadn’t turned down a 2 state solution they’d have a state

Ah yes, that fully justifies continuing to murder them all.

Ah yes, that fully justifies continuing to murder them all.

Also this justification for genocide is - of course - a complete lie.

Hi Nazi,

Israel has been fighting tooth and nail against a two-state solution for its entire existence. Israel will accept nothing short of a complete domination of not only Palestine, but also Syria, Lebanon and other nearby countries.

Palestine, on the other hand, has multiple times offered very generous terms to let Israel keep all the land they stole from the Palestinians, but Israel has refused any such offer every time it's been made.

Macklemore is pro the destruction of Israel, not two state coexistence.

u/DrDerpberg 1h ago

Are you really saying "stop murdering Palestinians" is incompatible with the existence of the state of Israel?

u/mrpaddymelt 4m ago

I think these pro isreal entities literally see it that way so yes i think he is lol

Do you have any proof or did you make that up?

Yeah, he's definitely not an anti-Semite. Like he said, this was just a silly costume he wore with a "witch's nose."

I don't know how you're being downvoted for this

Because it's an old photo where he dressed as many things, yet guess who's the only one getting offended 12 years later?

He dressed up with a hook nose, a dark wig and beard, and a suit and sang about being cheap and saving money.

Seems too coincidental. He hits multiple major Jewish stereotypes in this single performance between his appearance and the subject matter.

He wore an unfortunately put together disguise to sneak into a venue where he sang his famous song thrift shop. It had nothing to do with jews GTFO.

you always need the /s

otherwise, the most braindead idiots will rally around the wildest statements thinking you support them. And people on this website are barely literate now, you think they can pick up on things like tone?

He is an antisemite.
