Seems nonsense to me, no clue what it means or more crucially if it's even a good or bad thing.

After arguing with some.people about things and finally going and reading a bunch of shit, I'm pretty sure it's in reference to the people that were at a rave like ~4 miles from Gaza and a military base that was a target for the oct 7 attack, and because of the proximity there was lots of confusion about who was military or civilian. Also one thing I read said the rave location was announced like 1 day before, so Hamas also did not know it was happening. Anyways a bunch of people died and were taken hostage from it
So basically BE is alluding to "Coachella” (the rave) next to "Auschwitz"(Gaza) and blaming the capture/death on the people who went there
Don't forget that Israel also had intel regarding an upcoming attack but took no action.

Many other sources to be found online.
True, was just explaining the particular thing I believe BE to be referencing

We can denounce Israel without justifying other atrocities. Do better.

Khamas kidnapped my baby from inside the IDF tank he was piloting
I can't tell if BE is being sympathetic to zohrans statement or not
Seems like a decent enough statement for his current situation with being associated with the DNC tbh, and I don't really watch BE or know his opinions on zohran
Okay but do you seriously think, in this political climate where everyone is cucked by Israel, that he could have gotten anywhere near the attention and support to win his election by not saying Oct 7 was bad? He was the most progressive/socialist candidate on the field, and honestly it's stupid that he has to repeatedly talk about Israel in the first place, when he had zero power to change anything about our relations with Israel/the genocide.
And even then, the most I've ever seen him 'denounce imperialism' is to say Oct 7 was bad, which if you think that crosses the line you are out of touch with our political reality. Hell, I think in one of the debates he refused to even do the whole 'i condemn hamas' bit, and was pretty much fully critical of Israel
