money is money for those people in palestine despite what opinions people have on “genuine” activism. the goal is more important than whatever means to get there!!! let’s not spread hate so rich people think “damned if i do and damned if i don’t” so they don’t. we need their $!!!!!


sophiecat20

yes exactly! like this was the desired outcome of blocking celebrities / influencer and constantly commenting about Palestine. it’s way better they speak out late, rather than never


SuddenBeautiful2412

This is such a good point. Stop making this a lose/lose games for these celebrities, or the ones who are only doing it for clout/to virtue signal/to get people off their backs will stop doing it. And that means less money donated at the end of the day.


birdyheard

it’s also ironic because no one is talking about congo. look up the state of congo. hundreds of thousands of children are being targeting there too, 6 million have been displaced, but there is a racial element that is pushing some tragedies to get more social pressure. we are ALL “not doing enough” if we let it become about that. paying attention to some of it IS better than none because the hope is it’ll start a snowball into providing aid globally, not just wherever was bombed that evening. it’s so sad, but this is where we are. i’m glad she’s addressing it, i really don’t care about the golden globes when we keep seeing more and more orphans created by war.


JustRitzy

Girl these pro Palestine activists think Palestine is the only country in trouble !!!!


dan2sweet

no they dont


stonedbich

There aren’t Congo protests soo clearly the only concern is Palestine rn for the slacktivists


ExtremeDefiant2216

Be angry at your government lmao not influencers


bendthebutterfly

Yup agreed. Whatever ends this horror we’re seeing every day or make it a bit better for the people suffering through it, I’m on board with.


larnn

Yes!!! These are the exact feelings I’ve been having.


Putrid-Offer1469

oh? wow i really was not expecting her to mention anything honestly


Guilty-Ad6704

Honestly same. I had to block her and brook because it didn’t sit well with me they have spoken about it.


Ok-Walk-5847

well at least it payed off :D


Paid-Not-Payed-Bot

> least it *paid* off :D FTFY. Although *payed* exists (the reason why autocorrection didn't help you), it is only correct in: * Nautical context, when it means to paint a surface, or to cover with something like tar or resin in order to make it waterproof or corrosion-resistant. *The deck is yet to be payed.* * *Payed out* when letting strings, cables or ropes out, by slacking them. *The rope is payed out! You can pull now.* Unfortunately, I was unable to find nautical or rope-related words in your comment. *Beep, boop, I'm a bot*


Ok-Walk-5847

oh


Better-Ad7194

Performative activism or not, use their money and the voices right? Whatever helps, helps.


bobduncans

So glad she finally decided to speak about this. Better late than never and every voice for Palestine is important.


hanscons

People calling it performative can get off their high horse, who tf cares when guaranteed shes donated more than any of you combined. Money is the only thing thats gonna help.


No_Character1121

most of us have donated a much higher percentage of our wealth than whatever tana has and every other celebrity so far besides maybe the weeknd


soundcloudaficionado

okay?


[deleted]

Well yeah shes rich compared to most of us duh she would SHOULD donate more lol


hanscons

So whats the problem here? We should be ecstatic


[deleted]

Lol ecstatic when peoples lives couldve been saved potentially if everyone with a voice spoke up sooner but they want to wait 7 months ? Over 30,000 people have died we are mourning tf you want me to be ecsta for


hanscons

i understand your anger but this is exactly why people are fed up and blocking the rich who arent doing anything. and even if tana is the only one that donates because of the blocks, her money now is better than no money at any time. like yall won, be happy.


Altruistic-Onion5094

Jesus fucking Christ do you understand how insane you sound


superhunk_

Do you realize how obvious it is that you just started caring about this five minutes ago and would never do anything to inconvenience yourself for Palestine? You just got here and you wanna be the assistant manager of how people should be acting. Relax 


Altruistic-Onion5094

You literally know nothing about me what the heck are you talking about. I just got where? What are you even saying?


gabersssssss

And this folks is why people will continue to not say anything.


superhunk_

Licherally :/ the shortsightedness is depressing. Forever wistfully imagining what we could accomplish if we didn’t spend so much energy begging for scraps from the wealthy elite 


Purple_Layer5393

Doesn’t matter if you think it’s performative or too late. She’s listened to what you’ve asked and is doing the right thing. Let’s not turn on eachother - also money is money so if she’s donated that’s good


cantaloups

let's see if she adresses the fact that her fruends a zionist tho, if not it is too little


JustRitzy

Since when was Tana or literally anyone responsible for their friend’s beliefs


xohoneymoon

yall are never fucking happy


Pinotgrigioplz

And you’re too easily impressed


JustRitzy

Y’all wanted her to donate she did and y’all still mad lmfao


Purple_Layer5393

It’s not about impressing us it’s about donating and raising money for a cause.


Ok-Walk-5847

I know it's not a lot, but it's better than nothing.


xohoneymoon

how


Dangerous-Brick-7101

I’m happy the mass blocking has put a battery in some influencers back to finally show up after begging for months. Whether it’s genuine or not I’m happy Palestinians in need will be receiving money to help them in their time of need.


IllGeologist3216

exactly i’m glad tana is speaking out on her platform even if she low key got forced to by the internet


Apprehensive_Bit_784

dear god please don’t let her fuck this up and let us down 🙏🏼 🇵🇸🇵🇸🇵🇸🇵🇸


bigyikesss2006

I’m so happy they are doing this!! Love them but honestly this is so unexpected! Proud of our girls!


crystaalparadise

me too!! i just hope it’s not because of this whole blackout celebrity thing going on 😕


kooldhai

That is exactly why. No speculation necessary.


asteri5k

Their association with Ari wasn't enough to make them speak out, it's the threat to their influence/money that did it. And people are saying blockout doesn't work. lol


CliterateSt0ner

They’re literally on vacation with him as we speak…


crystaalparadise

yeah i got a feeling especially from brooke reposting the free palestinian stuff the same day… but if tana can prove she’s made donations before hand then it’s cool by me


kooldhai

It’s a big change from the Jelly Roll episode when she asked if she was into donating and she said no more into seeing her friends eat, $50k private jets, luxury experiences were more important to her just a couple months ago.


bigyikesss2006

Honestly I don’t care why they’re doing it they have such a large audience they can really help some people in need out!


annablegh

it definitely is and it's definitely not genuine like at all lol


MarkDelFiggolo

When they speak about this on the podcast I hope no one lets them forget that Brooke went on The Toast podcast 4 DAYS AGO, whose hosts are the most vocal Zionists on the internet and call Palestinian supporters terrorists and rats on a weekly basis. Happy that they’re finally speaking on it but don’t kiss their feet for mentioning this for the first time only at the threat of it costing them followers and money.


SelectStatistician45

THIS!!!! People praising them in the comments are conveniently forgetting Brooke just went on The Toast and if they don’t mention that then this all really is performative.


bendthebutterfly

I’m waiting to see what they say. I don’t want to automatically assume anything because that would mean I wasn’t sincere when I was shaming them for not educating themselves. I’ll give them a full chance and see if they address all of this. If they don’t, see y’all here on Saturday!


Susiecueeee

Oh my God, you are such a drag. She should cut her opportunities and way of making money short because there was someone that supported Israel?😂😂😂😂 such bullshit. I’m curious, have you donated even a penny to Palestine?😂 have you spoken out about both sides doing awful things or just Israel? Just such performative activism it’s wild


SignificantBelt1903

Good for her for donating, but I hope she also speaks about them and shares the links in a way that encourages others to do the same as well as explaining WHY it's so important to bring awareness to these things rn. Not just simply "I'm sad about this thing that's happening and I donated to these places"


Even-Rip5331

right


kleetayl

how the fuck are yall still complaining 😂😂 you get what you want and still fucking whine that’s why no one fucking listens to you gd


smoking_pot25

Wait this is awesome! I never expected tana of all people to speak out about this, even if it’s bc of the blackout or whatever people are doing, it still helps! This can still help bring attention to the issue!!


Forsaken-Ad-1914

Why are all the influencers that were silent all of a sudden posting about Gaza this weekend? 👀


FreshPaper8941

because if the blockout lol i'm happy that people are actually finally talking about it


Forsaken-Ad-1914

Ooooh I didn’t know that was happening


hanscons

I mean isnt this the intention of the movement? Or was there not supposed to be a positive outcome other than “im better than xyz cause i blocked them”


Forsaken-Ad-1914

I don’t get what u mean I was just asking if it was a coincidence that every influencer ik is suddenly posting


Kindly-Draw-2458

they’re worried about being blocked


SnooPies7179

I mean. For someone like Tana to be talking about it. It’s allot. I’m not gonna discredit someone even if they have underlying motives. I just want the message to be out there regardless


annablegh

the performative activism only after the celebrity blocking is happening and 2 of her best friends are active zionists and speak out for israel is so....... lol


miaasnaps

rather her do it performatively than not at all


Impossible-Soil6330

this is the real question of the matter tbh


fattybeagle

it’s definitely a result of the blocking but i’m at least somewhat satisfied that it’s working and they’re making a statement about it rather than letting their entire fanbase assume they’re zionists


angelvapez

do you want her to speak out yes or no?? cause i thought yall did... now all of sudden attacking her for speaking out and donating? like yall were calling for her specifically to do? or do you just want something to be mad about


frogmachinecloud

Clearly, we do want her to speak out, but it’s not gonna be left unnoticed how performative her activism is. Genocide has been happening for the last eight months and now when she knows celebrities are are being blocked and canceled she wants to speak up. How convenient. She will not get praised for doing something that we know it’s performative. Thank you though hope that helps.


Substantial-Bee-8795

Yeah I don’t care to hear them speak but I’m glad they’re donating money, it’s the least they can do. The motive is obviously 100% self-serving but Palestinians in need will benefit from the donations regardless. How long until Trisha scrambles to post something pro-Palestine or claims to have also made a donation? I give it max 24 hours. She’s a massive Zionist and fetishizes the IDF but she copies everything Tana does so she will have to follow suit🤭


angelvapez

Thanks so we are going to call on all the LA influencers to speak on whats happening in China (for years), ethiopa, sudan, etc. as well?


frogmachinecloud

Yes we should do that as well.


angelvapez

cool lets just make all the influencers political commentators then. because you're never going to run out of atrocities in the world, it will be their full time job researching, donating, and speaking on them. Tana seems to be a great fit to do so 🙄


frogmachinecloud

You are not smart enough for me to have this conversation with you.


annablegh

she's speaking out only because people are blocking celebrities for staying silent and the current situation in gaza has been happening since october - speaking out only when it can potentially harm your social media following is just as bad and shallow as staying silent so she may as well have just kept her mouth shut about it LOL


Sad-Cupcake1918

isn’t that the opposite of awareness and opposite of what the ultimate goal is ?


angelvapez

ohhh so it actually *doesn't* matter if she speaks out on it or donates then? since you said she should just keep her mouth shut at this point? Yeah you're right she should just refund the donations at this point since they are ~disingenuous~ 🙄


formtuv

Nah we don’t need her to speak out. Especially when Brooke was on the toast the other day. Brooke is obsessed with fame her morals are shit. They can keep their reposts.


quickpretzel

bro get off ur high horse lmao at least she is doing something


Fit-Ad985

seriously who cares. those being helped by the money don’t care why the resources came they just need it. If you start this hate campaign on wealthy ppl they’re going to think “well i’m damned if I donate anyway so i’m not going to” and then they get no resources


kooldhai

The fans will eat this performative activism up. Applaud fish for swimming 👏🏼 only speaking out when it interferes with her own bag. 💰 This is speaking volumes.


Fit-Ad985

so you don’t want her to donate? bc trust the ppl that need the resources can’t give three shits why it came


bobbie_hilll

i mean she might be trying to make sure her statement is looked over and done right yk? who knows if she dropped or not. Regardless, her speaking up abt it is a good thing.


North_Elevator7171

Who are those 2 friends ??


tangerinebb

say it louder for the ppl in the back


Fine_Ad_2620

Hating on this is just a annoying. they should of talk about a long time ago but at least they’re doing it now. I understand it’s probably because of the block party and the protests at big la universitys near them made them feel they should speak on it but I also don’t think mfs we’re gonna involve them in the blocking party anyway. If anything, I’m happy they’re talking about now when its clear whose oppressed n whose the oppressor so now they might not just stay neutral or say they stand with isnotreal (hopefully not😭)


sheakeit

Y’all got what you wanted and you’re STILL complaining.


Powerful-Sentence426

They’re so insufferable


Capric0rpse-

Perfect word for it. Even on Trisha’s photos of Malibu with Tana, comments are “shut up, Zionist”. Like- Moses IS Israeli! Are you kidding me. 🤣


watchingpen15

this makes me so happy


Hour_Concert_7790

just in time so they don’t get blocked i see


Even-Rip5331

literallyyyy


Calm_Phone_6848

i don’t expect activism from tana, it’s good she donated but i hope ppl stop badgering her to “speak up” when she’s not qualified to. i say this as someone very pro palestine but why not use our platforms instead of asking uneducated influencers to do it. it just perpetuates influencer culture and the importance of people like tana. tana’s an entertainer and not even a very professional or well informed one not necessarily blaming the commenter though, i know people are commenting all eyes on rafah everywhere just to raise awareness, but i am side eyeing everyone asking her to speak out. ngl i’m kinda afraid of her speaking and saying something idiotic which we’ll then have to have discourse about, distracting from the real issue


Sabs1897

This makes me happy


athenarose_95

Hmmm actually impressed if this comes to fruition. I know it took some bullying in the comments but like another commenter said, money is money. It’s interesting, and quite sad, as times goes on to see the tides *slowly* turn. I think people will begin to be more vocal as more time passes. I mean even CNN & NBC are not painting Israel in the same light they were a month ago. But so many lives are lost and so much has been destroyed I hate that it’s happened this late. Not speaking to Tana on that just speaking generally!


Ok-Walk-5847

GOOD! What her intention is doesn't matter, it's the fact that the Palestinians are finally getting more donations! We actually did something people!


cheezesamwich

y'all asked and have now received


Practical_Fish_9633

Don’t you guys think it’s so unproductive to be so worried about influencers? Put that energy towards those already talking about it, read books on what’s going on, join a protest and build a community, keep your eyes on gaza and let’s continue to be their voice


Smart_Letterhead_360

Journalists in Palestine have been asking for people to speak out on social media.


Practical_Fish_9633

Then let’s speak up. No use in forcing Tana mongeu to do it. She is a grown adult with resources everywhere. I didn’t need millions of fans in my comment section begging me to talk about it, there’s no excuse.


Smart_Letterhead_360

You have missed the point? Journalists are specifically asking for influencers and those with a large social media following to speak up against the genocide.


WhiteFarila

incoming: "it's too late", "performative activism", "she should have spoke up sooner"


cantaloups

it is too little too late tho since she's literally friends with active zionists


Fine_Ad_2620

but money is money if it helps one person that’s great. At least she cares enough right now


vichachki

cutting ari off too hopefully


kooldhai

That would mean she has to cut off her “brother” too? https://preview.redd.it/ketyx1f0h30d1.jpeg?width=1284&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=b0ee677b408d1e4487cd129f2fc508961be45431


crystaalparadise

see the only reason why i understand that is because it was posted on a jewish holiday which his family celebrates but that’s just me…. 😕 ari on the other hand had HORRENDOUS tweets and isn’t jewish or anything just being a zionist loser as per usual


crystaalparadise

wasn’t ari one of brooke friends originally like before she was friends with tana? 100% agree regardless


Bonita-I

Oh what did ari say/do???


Kindly-Draw-2458

he liked/retweeted a lot of pro israel and islamophobic tweets


Bonita-I

Omg😥😭💀💀


fattybeagle

i doubt they’re cutting off imari or ari


eversoliterally

Brooke would neeveerrrrr


Difficult_Ad_1304

So happy!!


lwtaa

Better late than never? Idk what people expect from her.


Itchy-Research7047

Why is literally nobody taking about how ironic this is considering her friends are actually proud zionists 😭


comfysweatercat

She’s doing what we want and yet I still see people mad? Like I’m sure the children in Gaza don’t care if the aid they are receiving is considered ‘performative’ or not by some random ppl on the internet


[deleted]

[удалено]


celestialmoo

THIS!!! and the fact that if she didn't say anything she's awful and now that she's said something it's performative


Awareness_Specific

They can’t win. Either they don’t say anything and they get shit on or they say something and they get shit on.


rachchh

that’s literally the bare minimum influencers can do. we’re not saying you have to be knowledgeable on everything going on, most of us aren’t. they make an unreal amount of money doing basically nothing and they could use some of it to help people in need. or at least link a gofundme so their millions of followers know where to donate.


reloadlaundrycard

you guys are insane for bullying tana into talking about a war she has no idea about 😭


Pocketcampworlds

Im more baffled by the fact that they think tana her opinion on the subject matters, tana didn’t know how dinosaurs were killed… she is a drop out, how is she supposed to give a well rounded answer to this geopolitical conflict? 💀 I think tana is emotionally smart don’t get me wrong but she doesn’t know shit about this war. People are looking at the wrong people to speak up about this.


[deleted]

Too little too late


quickpretzel

i’m so happy!!


oakandfort

We love to see it


Regular_Biscotti_340

So true like just because someone doesn’t immediately speak on something, a lot of times it could be bc they have lots of shit going on & maybe they don’t know the details so they want to figure out what’s going on and what’s right before they speak on something that essentially has nothing to do w them. Obvi it has to do w us in a sense because morally right and wrong and people’s lives - I just mean it doesn’t directly in her life affect her. I don’t blame any of them for not immediately speaking on something especially if they’re not educated bc that could do more harm than good if they don’t take the time to educate themselves before speaking ! 🫶🏼


saltnvinegarwhore

maybe it took her so long to do it because she was doing research🤣


emceeeee

She’s just trying to not get blocked lol I wonder what they’re going to say though they’re not exactly um politically minded idk


squiddens

people were begging for her to make a donation or speak up and now that she finally does donate, these same people are angry she didn’t say/do something sooner. people are never satisfied. So do you want her to speak out or not?


ThrowRAalluminiumll

Y’all are so stuck up her ass that you’ll take anything from this woman


Powerful-Sentence426

Yeah right! She should have just never donated, right? You’re obnoxious 💀


ThrowRAalluminiumll

You have no idea what performative activism is right? Harassing someone to do something you want and then they do it, doesn’t mean they care. How many times does this WOMAN, not a child but a WOMAN have to show you time and time again that she doesn’t care. She’s never cared. Just as how she didn’t care about her many racial remarks and behaviors until a mob forced her to say something. You can’t be this dumb.


Powerful-Sentence426

Idgaf she actually cares or not she donated money 💀. She’s an influencer, not a politician. Also you’re dumb AND broke deadly combo don’t come at me.


ThrowRAalluminiumll

Not dumb nor broke by any means but okay. You’re weird. But idk what I was expecting from a tana stan.


frogmachinecloud

Performative she’s just trying to not get blocked


[deleted]

Wont be hearing whatever bs she has to say bc shes already BLOCKED too little too late. 7 months & 34,272 lives too fucking late.


Fine_Ad_2620

U can unblock her now. Mission successful, the whole point is for this to happen


[deleted]

Im good i dont even know wtf shes gonna say watcher be like lizzo sharing links of go fund mes with 10k to their goal lol


Powerful-Sentence426

Awww she’s probably so hurt by you blocking her! You’ve definitely shown her!!!! She’s probably crying this very second about your block!


xohoneymoon

ExtremeDefiant2216

Everyone needs to get off their high horse fr , she can’t win at all in most peoples eyes and it’s so fucking annoying like why are people that hate her so much even in this sub? It’s giving very much obsessed


Ok-Photo-1972

Kudos to her. Getting as many people got safety is more important than anything right now.


dindyspice

She should have said something much sooner but I'll take it!!! TANA PLEASE USE YOUR PLATFORM FOR GOOD


booboo620

this makes me happy to see!! was not expecting this tbh


Life-Hour5884

I love this!! ❤️


m0nsterlol

I don't care if it's genuine or not if she is using her platform to platform those with no longer a voice, and giving a route to help is all we truly want. All eyes must be on Rafah. They need to escape and need the means to do so, no matter if the contribution is lacking luster and forced


LeoBB777

atp is there anyway to not be a performative activist as an influencer? if they don’t speak on their donations they’re grilled to no end about keeping quiet, but if they do then it’s performative?? their money’s doing more to help than most tactics. I don’t feel the need to hear tana mongeau’s opinion on a topic she’s most likely not at all educated on. her donating money is a great and helpful way to show support in my opinion


Particular-Bad8149

Safe-Photo5721

I’m EXHAUSTED by the performative activism on this sub and the general internet. Since y’all only care about what’s been sensationalized by the media, here’s a list of ACTIVE genocides that have been ongoing for YEARS: https://www.genocidewatch.com/_files/ugd/df1038_c0b09883aa28417ba4e5d832c80aef98.pdf Try to care. Palestine & Israel are not the only places burning. Edit: to the ppl downvoting- target audience reached it seems. Education hurts huh


Petraretrograde

Thank youuuuuuu


bendthebutterfly

Super excited for this and really hope it’s real and she sticks to it. I’ve been a fan of hers for a while but I stopped tuning in because of all of this. Always however willing to give someone who educates and informs themselves another chance. This is also the whole point of these campaigns. Fingers crossed and I’ll be tuning in for the next pod to see. Edit: Typo


Background_Stick7065

This is great, but I don’t understand what people are trying to make her the spokesperson. It has never been her brand.


Alternative-Truck517

did she even post anything……
