I honestly don’t get it. Isn’t she just asking for peace? I saw HBOMax tweet out an announcement that WW84 was coming back to the service, but they disabled comments and every single quote tweet is some negative ass shit about how horrible she is. Soooooo, IDK, I don’t get it.
What’s the issue?

She's not asking for peace. She's 'praying' for it. In I/P politics, the difference is enormous.

For those who don’t know, I’m an atheist, so well,,, you can probably guess my views on prayer. I typically just interpret it as (wishing/hoping/asking) for whatever, but of course I have no idea what it’s like to take seriously the idea that you’re actually telepathically speaking to some magical cosmic living tribunal level being. This is kind of the big problem I have with religion, is that people are willing to fight over the fact that other people are telepathically speaking to The Inbetweener, and others are talking to the Beyonder, and I just want to scream out that none of this is worth fighting for, to stop being offended because it’s all nonsense. That’s my hope for the species.

I agree. She didn't say anything wrong. Apparently Rihanna tried to say the same thing and people are angry at her too;at least that's what I heard. People need to dial it back. Jesus.

That’s my hope for the species. Even as an agnostic, the situation is beyond comprehension. It won't be long before one side successfully enacts its "final solution" against the other. Assuming that doesn't plunge the rest of the world into infinite warfare, I'm content to let that happen and deal with whatever remains.

If that’s confusing to anybody feel free to ask, but I won’t voluntarily bore you ;-) But yeah. Through my lifetime alone, it’s pretty clear there’s no happy resolution forthcoming. My naive optimistic solution would be to leave the debated territory as an independent free permanent cease fire area that works something like DC as a non state. Just stop fighting over it and everybody can come and go as they like. I know that’s not realistic but,,,

She wished for peace for both sides. Some will get angry over anything these days. Screw Hamas though She should have just made a hashtag #Letbothofthemburn, maybe then people would love it lol

It seriously feels like a massive overreaction. I’m finding it more and more annoying that you’re simply not allowed to have a point of view people might not like. Any chance to be offended, they will be.

She didn't say anything that any rational person could ever find controversial. Anyone complaining about it is an ignorant hater.
