ALGAYDO 32,130 Posted December 29, 2017 Share Posted December 29, 2017 11 hours ago, Naor Daniel said: 1. Lorde schedules performances in Tel Aviv, Israel and St. Petersburg and Moscow, Russia 2. Lorde proudly tweets about these three problematic locations on Twitter, naively, I guess due to ignorance 3. Crazy social justice warriors are losing their mind... No, not for performing in a violator of human rights Russia, the one who killed hundreds of thousands in Syria, Ukraine, Georgia and Russian LGBTQ, but Israel. The antisemites cannot accept anything culturally or economically related to the Jews. 4. Lorde is bombarded with comments against her scheduled performance in Israel, the BDS joins in. 5. Two New Zealand women who are NOT native to the land (one Jew, one Palestinian) urged white Lorde to not perform in a country that "steals land" (it's okay only if you're white) and violates Palestinian rights, urge her to boycott the country 6. Lorde gives up to the antisemitism and cancels the Tel Aviv show, while Russian dates stay in tact. 7. Lorde loses all of her Israeli fans (including Jews, Atheists and Arabs) and is heavily criticized for cancelling a show in the only democracy in the Middle East in an excuse of caring for "human rights" while still performing in a country like Russia 8. Lorde deserves all the criticism she's getting. You’re literally blowing this WAY out of proportion, obviously adding your own personal biases to it, and spreading literal fake news Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goodtimes12128 230 Posted December 29, 2017 Share Posted December 29, 2017 I seriously don’t understand Lorde. She isn’t a good singer or dancer or visual artist in my opinion. She is clueless about politics. What is the point? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

How are you reading on both sides and then wanting innocent civilians to suffer Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
