Noah Schnapp trying to apologise by saying his words have been misconstrued. You were gleefully videoing your friends as they were proudly showing off stickers that read “Zionism is sexy” you posted misinformation and uplifted hateful voices of your peers. You were silent for far too long and conveniently come back when your show is being publicly boycotted on social media because of you and likeminded cast members. Nothing was misconstrued you just regret that there are consequences.

1998, Edward Said.

"Israel was constructed on the ruins of another society."

Transcript: Israel was constructed on the ruins of another society. And by the mass dispossesion of another people who remain unacknowledged as just sort of obscure natives in the background. 'Back to the desert. Let them go to one of the other Arab countries.' That's their position. The Oslo Accords say specifically that Israel bears no responsibility for the costs of the occupation. This after 20 years, 26 years of military occupation, no responsibility.

As an Israeli journalist said, he said 'we took over the country in 1948 from the British, the British left us the port of Haifa, a road system, an electrical system, a large number of municipal buildings and lots of prisons, and we could build Israel. Without that there would be no state today. If we had taken Palestine in 1948, the way we left Gaza for the Palestinians, there would be no Israel. We destroyed the economy, we deported most of the capable people, we forced the people to live in hovels and refugee camps over a period.'

I mean anybody who's been to Gaza, it's one of the most criminal places on earth because of Israeli policy of occupation, and they bear no responsibility for it. I mean, that's simply unacceptable, even for the Jewish people who have suffered so much. It's unacceptable. You cannot continue to victimize somebody else just because you yourself were a victim once. There has to be a limit.

I hate how my anxiety and panic set in whenever I have to leave the house

“When you send me for a role and it says ‘South Asian, his name is Raj’ … I say ‘I don’t fucking want it.’ And then the next one comes in and it says it doesn’t have a race. ‘This is John. 30s. Handsome.’ … When it says that, I want that fucking role. So I want to take from the majority. That’s the only time I think about race.” —Rahul Kohli on Blackman Beyond podcast

He’s so real
