antlered-kitten said: Oh please, she supports IDF attacks against Gaza. That’s not “supporting her people”, that’s supporting military expansion through war and death. And to me “patriotic” is just the “nice” word for nationalist - I don’t believe in “good partiotism”.
antlered-kitten said: Loving an expansionist army that is literally murdering people trying to take their land is shit, I’m sorry. Now way around it. Her hashtag #freeGazafromHamas is disgusting. Hamas exists only as resistance to Isreali aggression, so how about leave Gaza alone you fucking imperialist scum. Simple.
antlered-kitten said: But I literally don’t care to try and find old screencaps of things she’s posted and that have since magically disappeared - as usual, when a star says something shitty. Not so I care to explain why “patriotism” in the context of a military force trying to expand its power is a thin veil for the far-right. And I especially don’t care to converse with someone who is pro IDF. Stay ten feet away from me. There are videos all over the web of IDF torturing children. Scum.
As I’m not educated enough about the subject, so I appreciate hearing different points of view.. And of course I understand if you don’t feel like finding old sources of things she has said - but surely you can understand I won’t judge hear say on Tumblr completely without sources. Sorry for troubling you by asking about them though - as you seemed so confident that Gadot had said these specific things, I falsely assumed you might have sources to back up that.
Also as someone who works in the media, I have to disagree with things “magically disappearing” when a star says something wrong - while people might ignore those things and the celebrity might still continue a successful career, in my experience sources of them saying or doing things don’t disappear (an example of which is the tumblr culture of pulling back receipts from years ago).
Lastly I’m going to have to assume that “someone who is pro IDF” and “scum” are not directed at me, as I have not at any point in this conversation stated bias towards or against IDF, and have merely tried to ask and understand what Gal Gadot has done or said to make so many people dislike her.
Sorry this has obviously made you very upset, that wasn’t my intention at all, just trying to understand the situation. I hope you have a good day.
