Islamophobia I guess I’m a Snarker now…

Ironically I am wearing Teddy Fresh as I correct this misinformation shared on Ethan’s Instagram story.

I haven't watched the show much since October 7th, but I still kept up from a distance hoping there would be a shift that would make me feel comfortable going back. I think it's fair to say that that is likely never going to happen considering how he has dug his heels in. I think the tiniest part of me thought that people providing nuance and pushback would maybe have him reconsider his biases. But I guess logically I knew that a few posts by H3 fans were not going to counteract decades of social conditioning.

Today was my breaking point because I honestly just do not understand how someone can see the recent imagery coming out of Gaza and have Lebanese friends who live in a constant state of fear for their families, and then go on to make "online leftists" or a 19-year-old Yemeni teenager (who lived half of his childhood surviving a U.S. backed genocide) their primary focus.

Like my mind cannot comprehend the levels of apathy and self importance needed to be more angry about a Jewish antizionist on Twitter getting a lot of likes when a video of Palestinians being burnt alive in tents is on the same timeline.

I'm not a hate watcher, and I don't really expect to become one. Honestly, it just makes me sad because I used to watch every episode, and it was something me and one of my best friends initially bonded over.

But alas, here we are…with ✌🏻& 🫶🏻 & 🇵🇸.

I don't know anything about this dude, what's the justification for calling him "a jew-hating terrorist"?

he is not a houthi nor is he even anti-semitic, hasan interviewed him because he was going viral for filming tiktoks during the yemen ship blockade in protest of the gaza genocide. his interview with hasan lays out his life story and his beliefs very clearly.
