    Maybe 🤔?

    Although I’m willing to bet their PR bet is to say nothing about what Israel is doing for fear of being ruined. And not by Conservative Trump voters. Otherwise they’d have come out by now strongly condemning what Israel is doing, right?

      I mean yes if they come out saying that Zionism is cool actually then they’ll have a big problem on their hands(and so they would deserve). If they come out saying Zionism is kinda fucked up and genocide is bad then the only people who would be mad are the kinda people who can go fuck themselves and also probably don’t make up a significant amount of their customer base. Any that actually do listen to their music, in the face of any ridicule from others on the right, probably also are at least anti-genocide enough to not stop listening to those artists.

      It’s all hypothetical, of course, but I’d say it’s a safe bet. They probably just want to stay neutral and not catch strays which I sorta get. High profile people don’t need the security risk from all the bomb threats and shit.
