Before I continue, I'm not Jewish, and I strongly support a truly free Palestine.
The attached photo is simply unacceptable. Nobody who thinks celebrities doing blackface is abhorrent, or anyone who thinks a royal dressed as a Nazi is vile, should be sticking up for Macklemore.
I agree that the Israeli government has played victim until nobody listens any more.
This is fucking vile though.

@dar@mastoart.social @JimmyB@mas.to @moonrabbit@sunny.garden Just to put this image issue to bed once and for all, it happened FOURTEEN YEARS AGO and as soon as there was a complaint he issued a full apology. I notice your consideration didn't extend as far as the blind and sight-impaired community on Mastodon by providing alt-text. I originally thought your reply to be purist whataboutery, now I know it's also ignorant.
