@mark-carney.bsky.social “The hypocrisy of the banker Prime Minister is astounding. Israel is bombing and murdering a defenseless civilian population and infrastructure in Gaza/Lebanon on a daily/nightly basis but we never hear a peep about it from #MarkCarney.” Sid Ryan

Israel has total control of Gaza. Nothing gets into Gaza because of tight Israeli security checks. So why is Israel still bombing Gaza? There are no weapons of significant size to be a threat to Israel. IT'S GENOCIDE. The world sees it but does nothing about it. Harsh words and sanctions don't work.

Lots of Nazi apologists saying, "It's not a genocide in Gaza, only 3% have been killed." Yes, but the 97% are; - Being starved - Denied medical care - Denied sanitation - Denied housing. The intention is CLEARLY to kill as many as possible. The genocide is not finished yet.

Cornell University treating Gaza protestors more harshly than gang rapists is a real statement of values. It’s almost like violent domination by the powerful is the core belief of leadership.

@mark-carney.bsky.social Canada announced $100 million for Palestine, with no conditions put on Israel. In the past we paid for solar and water projects, only for Israel to destroy them, without any condemnation from Canada. So is Carney just participating in public theatre for appearances?

Lets not forget that Palestine is still undergoing a genocide. It's not gone away. The press has stopped talking about it and people are forgetting the horror of it all. That's how people become manipulated.

Do you want Israel to be sanctioned? Not their settlements, some meaningless sanction that can be avoided by changing a sticker. But Israel itself, for Crimes against Humanity. Spread the word if you do.

It's great that states are banning imports from West Bank settlements, but let's not give them too much credit for something they would have done 60 years ago if they actually believed in international law.

You can't blame Ed Sheeran for caving in to American stadium owners I suppose. I mean, take these guys in the 60s, they refused to play to racially-segregated audiences in stadiums in the southern states of the USA and who remembers them now?

Anti-semitism is evil, yes, but I think we disagree about the definition. There are too many people who conflate the government of Israel, and/or Zionism with Judaism, & they are not the same thing. As far as timelines go, the violence against Palestinians has been going on much longer than 3 years.

You're right, it wasn't for me. And it wasn't enough! She is a mega star, with massive reach. I can understand why she wrote it, that it wasn't for me and still wish for more. It's been almost 3 years, it's not time for "this is complex" it's time to stop the killing.

em, she/her 🇨🇦 @windowsandcups.bsky.social · 12/09/2026
She literally says that she sometimes speaks too quickly in this post, and she just reposted what someone else wrote rather than crafting her own thoughtful response. She absolutely could have said something that would have satisfied me - free Palestine, stop the genocide. It's not "complex."

And it's been named a genocide by several different organizations and scholars, including some in Israel - that's not my opinion, it's a fact. Listen to the way some of the politicians in the Knesset talk! It's hatred, it's state sanctioned, it's genocide. There's no other honest way to look at it.

That's always the way. Because I don't agree with you, I didn't read the post. I did read what she said, and I'm not impressed. But whatever - Pink doesn't care what I think, and that's fine - but there are many people who care what she thinks, and with that kind of influence comes responsibility.

It's a little performative, and then it comes only after huge backlash - and? It's a cop out to say you've held children on both sides, and then to call something complex when it's simple. Stop the goddamn genocide. Stop the bombing, stop the murder. That is what is hurting children on both sides.
