Susan Sarandon criticized for saying US Jews 'getting taste of what it feels to be Muslim'

[TheProle]

Actress Susan Sarandon is facing criticism for saying at a recent pro-Palestinian rally that US Jews fearing for their safety amid a spike in antisemitism “are getting a taste of what it feels like to be a Muslim in this country.”

Sarandon has been intensely critical of Israel throughout the war, repeatedly posting accusations of genocide, atrocities and war crimes by Israel; sharing misinformation denying elements of Hamas’s massacres in Israeli communities; and characterizing Hamas as a “resistance organization” and not a terror group.

1. What an appallingly tone-deaf thing for that ridiculous woman to say.

Seems to me that Jewish people have a pretty good understanding of how it feels to be persecuted.

[agingdem]

19. We do...

My parents were Holocaust survivors (Auschwitz)..I was "advised" that I was "a little too Jewish" to be president of my children's elementary school PTA...my then 7 year old son came home from school crying because one of his classmates told him she'd like him better if he wasn't Jewish... my then 13 year old daughter was not invited to her friend's Christmas party "because you're Jewish"...when my granddaughter was a freshman at a major university one of her suite-mates said "Jews deserved what they got in the Holocaust/they willingly marched to the gas chambers"...

yup..we "have a pretty good understanding of how it feels to be persecuted"...

24. I am so sorry that these horrible things happened to you and your family

and to so many other Jewish people, and that the likes of Susan Sarandon, who surely has no idea what it's like to be subjected to such things (nor do I) keep it all going. I do not understand and never will.

[yardwork]

25. I'm so sorry. That makes me very angry.

[LiberalFighter]

27. Wow!! So called Christians keep getting worse and worse.

[appmanga]

2. Is she also campaigning for Jill (lesser of two evils is still evil) Stein?

Susan Sarandon needs to go jump off a bridge.

[Omnipresent]

35. It's odd that sarandon would support people like Bernie and Stein...

Who both happen to be Jewish?

[womanofthehills]

55. Jews are divided on this war - just like everyone else

Been waiting for Bernie to call for a ceasefire- but he hasn’t yet. At least he wants to stop sending money while Gaza is being bombed. 300 past staff members of Bernie’s are very disappointed and have written letters & made videos and protested his office.

Stein is running as an anti war candidate - so far getting around 2% of the vote. This will take votes from Biden.

4. Susan Sarandon criticized for saying US Jews 'getting taste of what it feels to be Muslim'

Evidently she also was doing the river to the sea chant. Interesting comments from a person who never graduated high school.

[yardwork]

13. Sarandon is openly pro-Hamas.

44. Looks like she got a taste of her own medicine...er, poison!

63. I want her to become a pariah in Hollywood

if she isn't already.

Self Righteous *****

[madaboutharry]

5. During the 2016 election, she wanted Trump to win because she was convinced it would spark a revolution.

She is an anarchist. She is also an antisemite who sees Jews as an obstacle to her revolutionary aspirations.

[Takket]

6. oh yeah because it is has just been smooth sailing for Jews in the country and the world forever

up until right now.



She can go straight to hell

[electric_blue68]

48. Yeah, really, SUCH "smooth sailing". Shut up, Susan.

[yardwork]

7. How would she know? Is she Muslim?

[WA-03 Democrat]

10. No but a rich actress

Rocky Horror Picture Show was hard work!
Damit Janet - shut the fuck up

[David__77]

8. Very bad comment.

Of course Jewish people in the US have experienced racist oppression.

[sarisataka]

9. I wonder if Ms Sarandon would like

To experience a taste of being Jewish?

Same shit, different century...

[W_HAMILTON]

11. Good lord.

[Sal_NV]

12. Susan Saradon raising her ugly anti Israel head once again.

Tell me it isn't so.

[Mossfern]

15. Actually,

It's antisemitic.
She's shown herself to be a dangerous dolt several times in several instances.

[Sal_NV]

16. That's what I intended to say, but I had a senior brain fart.

Thanks.

[BannonsLiver]

14. What's her DU handle?

[debm55]

17. She's an ass

[ismnotwasm]

18. Still being Susan Sarandon I see

Nothing’s changed

[mcar]

20. I see she's still a moron

[maxsolomon]

21. Stop making stupid people famous.

In Sarandon's case, stop KEEPING stupid people famous.

[Paladin]

22. One thing about Sarandon: She's consistent. (nt)

[hlthe2b]

23. Has she said ANYTHING not totally cringe-worthy in the past 20 years?

29. Questioning the terror attack on Israel

Puts her in the same camp as holocaust deniers.

31. Excellent.

39. Rec.. Mahalo for this, lapucelle!

[EllieBC]

57. Rec. That is an excellent clap back!

Thanks for linking it.

I still am not sure in what world Susan Sarandon, a wealthy white celeb, would know life is like for anyone other than…..wealthy white celebs. Her hubris is off the charts.

[jcgoldie]

32. she's a fucking moron

And too stupid even to know when to stfu.

[BeyondGeography]

33. Ask Quora: Why is a know-it-all often equated with an "asshole"?

[BootOutTheGoons]

34. Once upon a time Susan Sorry-andon was a fine progressive

I'm sorry to say she's gone cray-cray.

Maybe she's proof you can go so far left that you wind up on the right. Maybe gazing at Dump fried her brains, like how looking at Medusa turns you to stone. I don't know the cause but she is no longer our friend and now does great harm.

Dammit Janet!

[JohnSJ]

36. I grew up in Iowa, and I encountered anti semitism frequently from a baby sitter telling me I would burn in hell

because I was Jewish unless I accepted Jesus when I was young, to being called "Christ killer, cheap, bullied, how they got "jewed", along with fights, when I was older, so I don't need this 60 million dollar net worth jackass, who worked to encourage people not to vote for Hillary, telling me how it feels.

[totodeinhere]

37. To put it kindly Susan must have a few loose screws.

And I never thought she was much of an actress anyway.

[madaboutharry]

38. You're being too charitable.

It isn't just a few loose screws. She is a radicalized antisemite. That is an entirely different thing.

[tritsofme]

40. She is a disgusting anti-Semite and all around terrible person.

I’m sure she will effectively vote for Trump again next year too.

After making controversial remarks at a recent pro-Palestinian rally in New York City, Susan Sarandon has been dropped by UTA as a client, a spokesman from the agency confirmed.

The former Oscar-winner has been present at several pro-Palestinian rallies where she made several remarks that included, “There are a lot of people afraid of being Jewish at this time, and are getting a taste of what it feels like to be a Muslim in this country.” She also went on to repost on X a pro-Palestinian post from Pink Floyd’s Roger Waters, who has been criticized over the years for his antisemitic remarks.

Sarandon being dropped from UTA is another instance in recent weeks of talent agencies making tough decisions when it comes to clients or agents making public statements on the war in Israel. Last month, CAA Co-Head Of Film, Maha Dakhil, resigned from the agency’s board after she reposted an instagram story that said “You’re currently learning who supports genocide.”

60. Yes TY.. I saw that and am grateful that

UTA isn't putting up with SS' Shit.. I hope she's Dropped by More of Hollywood for This and her big mouth for wanting the Trattor in OUR WH.
