    i just saw zara larsson’s IG story and I 100% agree that the reason why we should be begging for artists and celebrities to speak up is to put “PRESSURE ON OUR POLITICIANS”
     
    it’s clear that the majority of those who want their favs to speak up only want them to so they can feel good about stanning them and so their fav doesn’t get any hate. you can see it on here and all over stan twitter you can see people arguing with one another and bragging about their fav showing public support. i feel that pleading with celebrities to speak up to make an impact within politics and pressure those who can make a change is really impactful, but to just have them only speak put by posting a little IG story and nothing more is just really stupid and performative. every time this thread is hot, it’s because of lana or some other celebrity, not over new news

    ben follows orgs like Jewish Voice for Peace and ifnotnow and engaged posts advocating for Gaza so I don't think its them that's holding her back. I agree it feels stupid on her part to stay silent since she has propped herself up in the past to speak out especially having songs like Coachella,  or Looking for America. She even posted about Ukraine once. Taylor really never comments on politics besides the US election and she has a huge PR team as well as being in the middle of a major tour so it's less expected from her. a lot of lana's friends and people she works with are Palestinian or have been outspoken about this so it just feels weird. And after the massacre a few days ago I saw lots of posts coming from people I wasn't expecting--Jack, Aaron dessner, Finneas, Ariana grande, etc. this is just a huge tragedy in the world happening right now and the tides and public opinion really are turning and it would be really surprising if Lana was not a part of that

    The thing is the letter doesn't even exist anymore it's obviously something her managers attached her to without knowing what it was. I've said this before on this thread but if she was is a zionist it invalidates everything she stands for, especially with her art. Yes I find it infuriating that she's been silent and I really do hope she eventually does speak out about it. If Jack did I don't see what would stop her tbh. And I agree that we should direct our anger to governments instead but at the end of the day, celebrities do unfortunately hold influence. Even swifties are beginning to crack down on Taylor after the recent tragedies in Rafah and honest to god I hope it works especially with the current Eras show in Spain where they're very vocal about it. I know its not any sort of confirmation but I have a feeling in my gut that Lana doesn't stand for whatever Isnotreal stands for, it simply doesn't make sense given the person she is.

    The pin represented a call for a ceasefire though, and she wore it during her Oscar speech which was one of the biggest moments of her career. I know that it’s the bare minimum but at least she did something. Even if you don’t want to use Billie as an example, there is Melanie Martinez who is in the middle of an arena tour and about to headline a major festival. She is always posting about Palestine.

    Billie is under the same label and has a tour coming up and yet called for a ceasefire. A lot of artists that are currently touring have as well. At this point the only two options are that she doesn’t care or that she doesn’t support the cause.

    I don’t think Billie ever made a statement in writing. She just wore a pin at the Oscar’s.

    Retweet, i dont think shes a zionist nor do i think she support the genocide but shes being ignorant n probs doesn't care as much as she should about it or she doesn't realize its severity.

    not to defend her actions or lack there of, but honestly, i just think she's out of touch and ignorant, and i don't consider that to be at the same level as somebody being intentionally malicious or hateful like other celebrities like amy schumer, perhaps signing that paper from joe biden wasn't the best move, but i honestly don't think she really knew what she was doing or looked into it very much, she probably just saw that our democrat president wanted celebrities to sign a paper for some sort of cause and she thought it would be a good idea to show support because she just simply wants to help out, she likely didn't know what it specifically was for or what the issue at hand was, and, of course, it's quite foolish to do that, but i personally do not believe she has any malicious intentions, i think she always wants the best for everyone no matter who they are, but she just isn't very well-versed or knowledgeable about politics, so i honestly don't expect much out of her regarding that
     
    obviously, i think it's best that people educate themselves and do research from reliable sources, to raise awareness, and to help out in whatever ways they can, and it would be amazing if she did the same, but i honestly don't know or think she will, but at the end of the day, we don't know her, we don't know what she does on a day-to-day basis in her life, or how she feels about certain subjects, so i don't think we can just assume she feels a certain way, we don't know for certain if she's donated or not, or if she's doing research, but it does honestly feel like speaking out publicly is the best thing one can do, maybe we'll be pleasantly surprised, but i honestly wouldn't be surprised either if she doesn't say anything
     
    she's a musician at the end of the day, i can't necessarily expect activism or taking political stances out of somebody who's rich, famous, and who's job is to entertain people, or be incredibly upset when they don't speak out or when their views don't perfectly align with mine, i'm not saying that's necessarily right or good, but that's just the way it is

    Jack Antonoff is Jewish and even he posted about Rafah.

    I do agree with the fact that it's kind of fair to be disappointed by lana's behaviour since she already got involved with the letter and in the past she took political positions multiple times - and i agree that we shouldn't expect from EVERY celebrity to talk about this, everyone do what they want - but it just feels weird in my opinion that Lana doesn't say anything, not even a word for all the people that are dying, when literally everyone is talking about this war. 
     
    Also I think it's pretty likely that she might have been warned not to take positions since a lot of people in the industry are Jewish - BUT so many celebrities spoke up so idk, we never know what relationship between these people really are
