I have a persistent feeling that Pro-Paliz people who have those kinds of reactions to a famous X who went to Israel/met a Prime Minister/met a Jew or whatever, operate in a completely different reality, with their large parts of brain activity completely overwhelmed with emotions of pure hate ( that probably comes from untreated trauma, mental illness).

Here we have people who use Intel, Nvidia chips that are developed in Israel. With leaders who are very friendly with the people and the government of Israel. And employees who spent many months of combat in Gaza. OpenAI who just signed a contract with Nubeius(Israeli company). But no, let's cancel Vercel CEO, or celebrate that some noname artist blocks streaming in Israel.

It's so pathetic and sad. But I also understand it's all emotion and that some people live through their lives based on that.

I would argue that not understanding why that photo would be controversial requires a greater emotional disconnect and lack of awareness. Believing that not all lives are equally valuable is generally considered a symptom of the disordered.

It does seems it's all emotion on your end. Projecting much? Tried empathy for a change?

I bet there'd be controversy on that too if attempts to raise awareness weren't even further buried by puppets.
