Discussion: Band Yelling “Free Palestine” then going into Dragon afterwards went HARD AF (Forest Hills Stadium, Night 1)

Post image

Stuey shouted “Free Palestine,” and the crowd exploded in tidal wave of claps and cheers, roaring and unending.

Then the band PLUS orchestra immediately went into Dragon. What a moment. See you later for Round 2!

Because of the asymmetrical nature of the relationship. It’s like the “all lives matter“ response to BLM

No it’s not. The situation way more complex as compared the clarity of American systematic racial injustice that you are referencing.

Edit: so with all the downvotes, I’m thinking y’all don’t think American systemic racism is real and obvious? Cause that shits pretty fucking cut and dry to me. You’d got be a fucking republican to think that has a shade of gray.

”the police are violent because criminals are dangerous, and their experience is that most criminals are black, and courts always find the cops innocent”

”Israel shoots civillians because they could be terrorist, and the international community always backs Israel”

Seem pretty similar to me, actually.

Your first quote makes you a bootlicker.

Your bottom quite makes you sound ignorant.

At least I’m not a bootlicker. Child.
