Gal Gadot says 'pressure' to speak out against Israel hurt 'Snow White' at box office (www.usatoday.com)

  • Gal Gadot suggested that political pressure on celebrities to speak out against Israel contributed to Disney’s Snow White underperforming at the box office, though she acknowledged other factors played a role.

  • The film, starring Gadot and Rachel Zegler, earned $87 million domestically compared to higher-performing Disney remakes; Zegler faced criticism for her pro-Palestine stance during promotion.

  • Gadot emphasized she enjoyed working with Zegler, said her “conscience is clean” regarding support for Israel, and expressed hope for peace and safety for all people.

But, they are only following orders.

And how did that go for the last group of fascists that used that as an excuse?

Bad for the plebs that had to die for it.
The industrials, rich, politicians, etc, who got them to do it got immediately rehabilitated and stayed in power everywhere.
With exception from the handful symbolically sacrificed at the Nuremberg media trials

My point exactly. History is a wheel et al.

We'll see what happens when Trump is out of office.

Nothing, the Blue MAGA fascist-lite half of that shithole will call for reconciliation.
As they already have.
And as happened with the original WW2 fascists

Most of them are very proud of being part of the occupation force . Many even film themselves mocking Gazans or committing war crimes
