    I hear you. But she doesn’t buffer her language, at least not that the article mentions, on either side to make it sound more academic. It’s clear to more than just me that she said something wrong. And didn’t say enough right.

      Except you have mischaracterized what she said. So it’s not clear whether you have an axe to grind and are being deliberately misleading, or if you just blindly follow people who do.

        She was dropped by her agency, had others explain to her what she said was hurtful, and ultimately she apologized. She got it wrong. Any mischaracterization here is simply irrelevant. I can see where she got it wrong; there are other ways to state what she said. I don’t know why this is so hard to understand.

          My interest in this story does not support the amount of effort it would take to argue with you. You clearly care more about this than me, which, again, indicates you have a particular agenda.

          You have inaccurately described what she said, based on the quote you described. I don’t give a shit about Susan Sarandon, or her agency or Israel or Palestine for that matter. I oppose genocide and terrorism, and fascism and politically motivated character assassination. I’m not in a position to comment on who she is as a person, and I have no influence on the violence and conflict.

          I’m in a comment section replying to a person who is pushing an agenda. That’s what I’ve said, and unless you have something else to offer other than “Other people agree with me, trust me bro,” then you can just stop now.
