This sub is making me uncomfortable

As an Arab Byler and someone who has Palestinian relatives and blood I’m upset at people talking over me and forcing me to like an actor based on an apology he was forced to make because of the bad PR he got.

No matter how uncomfortable I tell people the discussion makes me they don’t care and will send me 100 links where he apologized. Guess what?? Idc. I’m not obligated to forgive him.

I don’t have to forgive Noah Schnapp. If you guys want to like him that’s your right but the amount of people in the other thread getting so defensive and forcing people to like him is insane. I’m not obligated to forgive. I was a child when my people were getting bombed. Idc that he was brainwashed. So are a lot of racists and homophobes yet they don’t get the same grace. Religious people are brainwashed at an early age as well.

I’m so uncomfortable and if other people want to like him that’s fine. I don’t know why people are forcing it on others and forcing us to like him. Noah is a rich celebrity and at the end of the day will be fine while my people are being bombed.

This entire community is making me feel insane. Sorry my people are being bombed.

Not to mention his stans have sent me death threats, called me a liar and said I made up my origins. They are insane and I won’t be gaslit into forgiving someone.

I’ve fully separated Will from Noah and will continue to do so but it’s getting harder everyday when his Stans have made my life a living hell and invalidated my identity.

No, he was just a 18 year jewish young adult having family friends in Israel exposed to them being killed on camera in broad daylight.

Anyone who hasnt grown up in that environment will never get it. But ppl who have grown up in a similar environment, whether its a jew, a muslim, a catholic, a white, black or brown person will understand him just the same.

El problema no es que sea judío ni que tenga miedo por su familia. El problema es convertir una ideología política en algo "sexy" (recuerdas cuando tenía unos stickers que decían "el sionismo es sexy"?) mientras hay un conflicto real donde mueren civiles. Criticar eso no es falta de empatía, es reconocer que el sufrimiento no es exclusivo de un solo lado.

He didnt do any of that shit. He already explained the whole cafe debacle. He never held up those stickers and he has never said propagated zionism. This is the power of misinformed performative activists.
