Nazi ideology helps drive home the propaganda that “Israel is the only safe place”. So that’s ok in the Hasbara play book.

Saying free Palestine is the real crux of the issue. They dont want that.

This.  One makes them sympathetic and the other makes them the aggressor.

That's exactly it. Kanye provides not just a fundraising opportunity for Israeli pacs, but also a clear and present danger that can be pointed to for why moving to and investing in Israel is the only safe thing. Macklemore saying Free Palestine just exposes Ed Sheeran's 12-year-old fanbase to things like empathy and understanding, and people like Robert Kraft can't have that.

I guess Mackelmore's added "free Cuba" and calling ICE a terrorist organisation put him firmly on a place on the political map in the US. Respect to the guy, is all I'll say.

That and Israel is allowed to openly run an Ethno-supremacist apartheid state, and all the Nazi's really love that idea.

nailed it

There is nothing in this debate that makes someone sound less educated than using the word "hasbara"

[u/Sansundertale2069 → u/7thpostman]

"Using a relevant term makes u sound dumb actually"

[u/7thpostman → u/Sansundertale2069]

Yeah. It does. "I saw this on the internet and Zi started repeating it because I think it makes me look smart"

[u/inqte1 → u/Fupastank]

Yes. There is a reason literally every right wing idiot turned anti Israel in almost methodical unison. Initially I thought "weird" but when I saw Dan Bilzerian go on that schtick, I knew what it was.
