I saw many audience members with Israeli flags at the show in Atlanta, but I just thought it was a patriotism thing. Today on Reddit I saw someone try to hop on Coldyplay's stage with the same flag. Now I'm wondering if the people at the IM show were showing support for Israel in the war against Palestine 🤔
Fuck that's disappointing. I'd expect them to raise above the whole conflict and not take sides. You can support whatever you want but supporting genocide is so much over the line.
They are Israeli, they are literally the ones who were attacked, if god forbid IM were at that festival we wouldn't have any more IM music, so how can you say this you absolute baffoon?
“they are literally the ones who were attacked” This is so oversimplified and ignores so much context that I’m convinced it’s done in bad faith.
The 10/7 attack was of course abhorrent and immoral but to use that to claim Israel are the victims here is absurd.
Civilians on both sides are victims. To claim anything otherwise or to intentionally ignore one side’s suffering (no matter where you’re from) is just bigoted.
Edit: lol at people downvoting “civilians on both sides are the victims”
"bigoted" word detected, post disregarded.
Feel free to replace with another word. Do you agree with the point otherwise?
