Over on Tiktok, people are organising to mass block celebrities that haven't talked about Palestine in a campaign called "Blockout 2024". This has spread to Twitter and Instagram as well.
The idea is to mass block a list of major celebrities, including their brands and fan pages, and ignore them. Celebrities get money when we hate on them, but blocking and ignoring them makes them loose attention and therefore money.
Does it work? Well yes! Lizzo lost several million followers in a day and has suddenly spoken out in support of Palestine. You only need to block a social media account. Its very easy.
Which platforms? As many as you have or use. This includes Spotify!
Which celebs? A lot of peoples blocklists vary but the names I've seen the most are:
Taylor Swift
Rihanna
Beyoncè
Kim Kardashian
Kylie Jenner
Selena Gomez
However, the idea is to block all celebrities and influencers that don't support Palestine or haven't spoken out for Palestine. This can be ANY celebrity or influencer, and yes, this includes Kpop and MCYT. Encourage your fandoms and fan bases to block!
YOU, the consumer, provide a celebrities income. No consumer, no income. It's time to utilise that power!
