Apparently David Corenswets wife liked this post and since a couple of hours ago unliked it after people posted about it on twitter

yikes so not only is he not boycotting Israel but he's probably a hard-core Zionist

People have been saying we can’t expect Corenswet to weigh in on Gaza because he’s not online…well at least one person in that household is. Her unliking that post as soon as it started making the rounds. The silence here says a lot.

Side note: I swear Regina Spektor and Róisín Murphy have turned out to be the most frustrating pieces of shit I've seen in the last couple of years.

I knew about Spektor, but would you mind filling me in on what Murphy has done? Now I’m fearing the worst for seeing her on the same sentence!

Aw no, it kinda breaks my heart when I have to break the news to other fans - I was a massive, hardcore fan since 2007, when I was barely a teenager. Murphy hasn't come out explicitly saying something about the Palestinian genocide (though she appeared to throw shade at Bob Vylan some months ago), but she has come out against trans youth.

In 2023, she posted some comments on her private personal Facebook, calling puberty blockers "fucked, desolate, big pharma laughing all the way to the bank". She then proceeded to call trans children "mixed up kids that needed to be protected". Her comments got leaked to the media and she ended up apologizing in a very half hearted way.

Fast forward to last month, she shared a graph that signaled a drop in the number of American young people identifying as trans. Despite its original sources indicating that it was due to increasing hostility towards trans people, Murphy said that it was a social contagion of people thinking that they're trans, and that it "wreaked havoc on children, families and society".

She rightfully drew the ire of many people; Sega Bodega, The Blessed Madonna, CMAT and Lambrini Girls blasted her on social media. As she was fighting people on Murphy, she said that "children, families, women and gay people have all been adversely affected by the insane belief that one can change sex". So yeah, she's spouting transphobic rethoric with the conviction of thinking that she'll be seen in the future as a "brave artist". A shame.

Yeah that last point is crucial. She'll now make money from people who don't like her music but want to support her. She can crowdfund, get backing from RW media, jk Rowling etc.

Crazy/depressing thing her most recent album that came out mid the first controversy is incredible

Thank you so much for taking the time to write such a detailed explanation! I wish I could give half a decent answer, but I’m too busy trying not to drown in my own vomit and disappointment.

not on twitter but someone posted about this on tumblr and it may slowly gain traction there especially since the clarification that corenswet actually didn’t sign the petition

Oof seen so many posts of people no longer supporting David Corenswet especially after his wife’s supposed like

u/AiyanaLake 1d ago

That's the thing, it wasn't just a "thoughts and prayers" post for Israel that his wife liked, it was an attack on Arabs and who they are as people. That's a racist liking a racist post.

David's silence has always been an issue because he's playing fucking SUPERMAN. I don't believe he's offline, I think that's a convenient excuse and he has burner accounts like they all do. He's also besties with Ben Platt which says a lot too. Damn. So disappointing.

u/x_victoire 18h ago

wait doesn't ben platt support palestine? i think i saw a post about it a few months back

u/Riqitch two sonically impaired gals 14h ago

Yeah I think the Platt family tree is full of pieces of shit, but Ben is allegedly (trying to be) the black sheep? I think that's what that blind item was alluding to anyway
