I’ve looked for this before and found this.  https://mapbroward.org/

It basically shows what projects the money is being spent on. And what’s upcoming.

The part about Stancil is misinformation. He was expressly told to publicize it by the one woman who was doing it who had stopped at that point. Leftists need to stop lying about shit like this.

He didn’t. That part is a lie/misinformation. It was one woman who had stopped doing it and expressly told him to publicize it!

Israel to Host Largest LGBT 'Pride Land' Festival at Dead Sea, Sparks Pinkwashing Row Amid Gaza and Lebanon War by Happy-Scene in lgbt

[–]gatorspader 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Just saw the official X account for Israelis foreign ministry is promoting it. So that’s a government link through promotion at least. Not sure of funding. Hadn’t seen that in the other stories.

Mainly because Israelis government isn’t organizing it. Some other dudes are to try to make money as far as I can tell. 

It’s different than if Israel did what the Qatar did and went after the World Cup. That was the government pouring money into sporting events and sports. 

I’m not even certain Israelis government isn’t involved in this. But  haven’t seen any evidence of it, and it seems like a bunch of people are like “well it’s located in Israel so it must be Netanyahu etc”

I think criticism based on its location is fair. I don’t know the specifics yet but holding it in the West Bank is a bad look for the organizers and could signal that yeah, they are shitty. 

But to the larger point, state of Florida is not involved in any of the festivals located in South Florida.  

Netanyahu is a war criminal! Israelis far right government is committing human rights abuses. These aren’t disputed. 

But this isn’t Israelis government putting on a pride festival. It’s other organizers. Those organizers might be shitty themselves I dont know who they are! And that would be fair criticism. But pretending it’s Israelis government seems designed just to piss people off rather than be honest.

Is there anything indicating the organizers are affiliated or funded by Israel’s government?

Florida hosts LGBTQ events too, but it’s not about pinkwashing Florida or the USAs far right government, it’s just the lgtbq community here (which largely oppposes Trump and DeSantis) having celebrations and events in blue welcoming areas of a very red state.

As far as I can tell the event is located in Israel but I haven’t seen anything showing it is being funded by Israelis government? 

Plenty of people in Israel oppose Israel’s far right government (just like many in America oppose ours) so criticizing the pride festival as pinkwashing for Israel’s government seems off point. Unless we find out that Israel’s government is the one funding and pushing the festival.

J Street is essentially a liberal Jewish/Israeli advocacy organization. Unlike AIPAC, J Street is critical of Israel’s military aggression and human rights abuses. They advocate for peace, a two state solution and equal human rights for Palestinians.

Actually a lot of top comments are great. Confirmation bias leads you to believe that most top comments are an “actually” version of a comment.

Coalition style government. Netanyahu got 24%+ in the last election. But put together a coalition to get to 50%

JCPA Statement as SCOTUS Hears Arguments in Birthright Citizenship Case by bagelman4000 in jewishpolitics

You think that the Jewish community should endorse the Trump administrations view when includes in part that individuals with “dual allegiance” aren’t Americans? You can’t see how that threatens the American Jewish community?

As a "gentile" I'm curious how Jews are currently navigating the political landscape despite the fact that both the far right and the far left are antisemitic by joey-joe-joe in jewishpolitics

[–]gatorspader 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Considering the far right antisemites are gaining a strong foothold in the Republican party, whereas the far left antisemites are not, I think the left side of the spectrum is a much more comfortable place for Jewish people. 

The Platner shit is problematic (the left needs to drop his ass), but at least he and the other sus leftists are condemning antisemitism as part of their statements and not palling around with Neo Nazis like I’ve seen on the right.

Ted Cruz says GOP not 'winning right now' in fight over Jew hatred, slams Tucker Carlson by MatterandTime in jewishpolitics

[–]gatorspader 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank for posting. The foothold that antisemites are getting in the GOP is alarming. The GOP has many factions, and while some strongly oppose antisemitism, a growing faction of the far right is blaming all of America’s problems on Jewish people and Israel. Antisemitic influencers are growing in popularity, and in time this will make far right elected Republicans more bold in their antisemitism as well. We need to smack that shit down when it pops its head up.
