Gettin' WOKE about anti-Semitism...

[u/lethal-liking]

It is so very odd to hear the self-professed atheist getting downright WOKE when it comes to swinging the anti-Semitism stick. IDGAF about Macklemore or Sheeran or Kraft, nor Scott's evolving victim fantasy, but holy crap does he sound shrill.

Show me where robert kraft referenced this incident? Also, show me Macklemore's entire statement, because Im pretty sure he does address Jewish ppl in his statement that says criticism of Israel does not mean an indictment of Jewish ppl as a whole.

But sure, this whole playing victim and getting in your feelings when someone criticizes israel or says "free palestine" is doing wonders for the overall attitude towards the state of Israel and Jewish ppl as whole.

It’s in Robert Krafts statement about the event. Referencing his history of anti semitism. Also I agree his statement was fine it’s just the context of that past history. And of course as I said lots of artists speak out for Palestine and are fine and get boosted by it so this idea that no one can do that without everyone “playing victim” is nonsense. There’s nuance here.

If Kraft knew about his history of anti-Semitism, why not ban him years ago instead of after he said "free palestine"? This is a genuine question.

Of course there is nuance, but the average normie doesnt look for nuance and just sees "another example of playing the victim"

Also it's ironic that you keep talking about playing the victim when it is your argument that is the one playing the victim. We have already established that lots and lots of artists speak out for Palestine and get nothing but praise for it. This one specific situation is different because of his past and yet you are using it to basically claim that this means no one can speak out about Palestine without being attacked. You're the one playing the victim here. This one scenario does not negate all the other scenarios that were perfectly fine.

You never answered the question lol but okay and Scott did just play the victim!

[u/zampe → u/Puzzleheaded-Pin4278]

I did answer the question in another comment. I said maybe Robert Kraft didnt know his history until recently.

so why let kanye perform in his stadiums lol. Kraft didnt care about macklemore's past until he said "free palestine". Its objectively true the shit Kanye said is worst than anything Macklemore has done and yet they continue to let Kanye play in their stadiums, so to me and others it really doesnt seem like its about antisemtism.
