Not so much controversial as just shitty journalism
It says her statement has 77,000 likes, and then gives six examples of people getting angry for no fuckin reason, like they do
Waste of fuckin electrons
Seriously. Two things can be true at the same time. Hamas is a piece of shit terrorist organization that needs to go, and what they recently did was absolutely horrific. AND Israel’s aggressive bombing campaign is hurting civilians and like the US did after 9/11, is radicalizing people and helping terrorists to recruit.
We’ve seen this story play out over and over. The only thing that’s changed is an increasing amount of bodies being thrown into the meat grinder.
That’s just silly. She picked a side; it just didn’t align with some people’s “us vs them at any cost” perspective.
Good for her for yet again standing up for what she believes.
I love how not killing civilians is now considered controversial
I read the article expecting some kind of hateful comment, and it turns out she was on the side of civilians over Likud and Hamas - which I think is a refreshingly well thought out position. I'd question whether she is really losing fans overall, or if this is just clickbait. Haters are always going to hate, but just because a few people criticise someone doesn't mean there is a net trend against them.
It is better to lose fans over human lives.
Her losing fans because of her opinion on the subject doesn’t stop people getting killed though
Because Israel doesn't care and they have a country that supports their acts.
Just because a lot of people are interpreting her statement as supporting "their" side (when it's a neutral statement about civilians in general), and as a result thinking that the people triggered by her neutrality must be from the "other" side - I'd encourage actually reading the article to see what position was generally the one upset about her statements, as it's the opposite group of whom many here are assuming.
What else do you expect from the rabid cesspool that is Twitter-formerly-known-and-always-will-be-known-as-Twitter.
Huh. I’ve been calling it “loser Elon’s twat palace”.
You all leave that beautiful woman alone!
