      Yea you get to a point where you realise people who deny the existence of an entire race don’t add much critical thinking to conversations

      Mark has talked the talk, and walked the walk for yearsss.

      I will always respect him for the way he passionately defends Indigenous peoples rights. I adore him and so does the Indigenous community, we gave him an ndn name, Mark Buffalo 🤣❤️

      to think that he and Gwyneth Paltrow are part of the MCU and must have crossed paths so many times…

      ‘And they were your friends’
      ‘no, i THOUGHT they were my friends’

      I’ve never been attracted to him in the past but somehow he is SO HOT as an older man. Like even before I knew he was politically amazing, I found him so attractive from like 50 years onward

      He is right. It is totally indefensible. It’s just bullshit saying this stuff. They are blinded by unconditional support for Israel. Well done Mark. He is a good guy.

      Name names of who you have dropped! The messy bitch in me wants details!

      I know the general list of celebs he is talking about but I need specifics god damn it.

      As dystopian as the present is, I kind of appreciate how it has encouraged people to show themselves in both good and bad ways. Like when I see a video of Jerry Seinfeld being asked to say “Free Palestine” and he arrogantly chuckles and says, “It doesn’t exist,” I appreciate that because it’s a clear statement about who he IS as a human being, which then reframes his work for me. I prefer knowing the truth about people even when it disappoints me. Mark is good guy.

    9. I’ve loved him ever since seeing Sarah Polley’s My Life Without Me years ago. A king amongst men, for sure ❤️

    10. Generally speaking, Jews that take the perspective of Palestinians deserving this are basically fearful of the Holocaust happening again and basically have a “It’s us or them” mentality. There aren’t a lot of people in Israel and there aren’t really a lot of Jews in the world. So there is a real deep down fear of being wiped off the planet. There’s also a pretty standard understanding that antisemitism is very much alive and well. It’s easy to find pro Israel Christians that are pretty anti-Semitic.

      With all that said, this still doesn’t justify the actions of Israel. The fact they’ve convinced themselves there is no middle ground here is extremely worrying.

      “They’re all terrorists.”

      “No, they’re not. Here are some examples of innocents being killed.”

      “But they’re human shields. The terrorists are trying to make you empathetic. They choose to be shields anyway, I bet.”

      “No, they don’t, here’s some evidence of innocents being targeted and killed.”

      “Yeah, but they choose to live there. They deserve it because–”

      You can’t win an argument when it’s evidence and facts versus fanatacism.

    12. I almost wish the members of my family who are pro-Israel had such cogent arguments. Instead, all I get is the same line on repeat, that, since the Palestinian people happen to be Muslim, they all deserve to die.

      Like…. the world isn’t that black and white sis. But there’s no convincing them.

      I can’t relate to them either. Between trump and netanyahu, I’ve discovered that I don’t know half the people I thought I did – and now I don’t ***want*** to know them – now that I know who they are. It’s been enlightening to say the least.
