    Look, I know that there are people out there using pinkwashing as a way to silence anti-Zionist voices.

    I’m not one of them.

    I have very clearly articulated that my beef is with the man and not what he said here. In fact, I very clearly articulated that his take is correct here. And I never said to take down the post. You are making yourself look bad. Please save this energy for ZioNazis.

      You are whether you realize it or not. You’re attacking BE who’s consistently pro LGBT for a single edgy tweet he made a year ago as if he’s an anti LGBT crusader dedicating his life to attacking trans people

      Finklestein literally wrote a book attacking “woke culture” https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/I’ll_Burn_That_Bridge_When_I_Get_to_It . Finklestein has made plenty of mistakes.

      Please save this energy for ZioNazis.

      Likewise. Once again apply your own standard to bad things every other content creator has said and there’s literally nobody left.

        Nah, he’s done it several times. I’m not providing a full dossier of receipts because I have shit to do, but again this comes from a pattern of observed behavior. Again, former fan. Like my point is literally that he’s not consistently pro-LGBT. Anti-trans crusader? Absolutely not, but trans rights clearly aren’t a factor in his worldview.

          BE is pro LGBT. He frequently mentions it including in his video about Norman Finkelstein, where he calls out Norman for his book. The reason for his attack was because a lot of trans people were using their identity to pinkwash the genocide and attacking the Palestinian resistance on it. BE then made an edgy tweet generalizing the entire white trans community for it but it’s not something that happens every single day nor is there a whole dossier about it.

          If you want to call him out when he does it that’s fine but this video is about the DSA being Zionist imperialists and you’re doing nothing but detracting from its content with ad-hominems. There is nobody else calling out the DSA on being literal genocidaires.
