SINY!!
Talk is cheap. A letter????:russ:

How about a collective boycott......anything that harms their tourism economy is the only way to send a message.

I would understand if this was a petition, but I don't get how a bunch of celebrities signing a letter is the equivalent to "speaking out" or influencing change. To me, social media has weakened everything.

Also, why do we wait or anticipate celebrities or influencers to say something about an issue just because they have a platform. Yes, they sway opinions, but on something as serious as what is going on between Israel and Palestine, a bunch of celebrities living in the United States voicing opinions from social media isn't influencing or even challenging anything.

^^^ probably not. People that don't like Drake will just look at it as him signing his name to something someone else wrote yet again.

It does look like he only did this because he got called out on it but it's something. Still waiting for Khaled to say something, or French Montana but they probably don't even care.

Be sure that anyone talking about "how does a celebrity signing a letter solve anything" is ok with the status-quo, meaning the gen*cide.

Drake I can kinda understand (but not really cause it’s stupid as shyt) people wanting to know where he stands, he might blindly support Israel or be more nuanced or have opinion at all…just because he’s a prominent jewish celebrity, I get that ….but muhfukkas keep saying “I want Khaled to say something” ….Khaled is Palestinian, like are there people really unsure on what his take on the situation is :heh:

Are you guys kidding me right now? Who gives a fukk about them signing some fukking paper for a cease-fire. Like anybody’s really going to give a fukk what some stars have to say. This is the most narcissistic shyt I’ve ever seen and I don’t even use that word.
When he said nothing it was a problem. When he says something it's a problem. Damned if you do, damned if you don't. :pachaha:
