K-pop group, BTS, despite a large following and influence, has remained silent and has continued to collaborate with zionists and are ambassadors of brands such as Valentino(Suga), Louis Vuitton(J-Hope), Dior, Tiffany & Co.(Jimin), Celine, Cartier(V), and Calvin Klein(Jungkook). Member, Suga (also known as Agust D), showed his movie "D-Day" in Israel despite pleas from fans to halt screening in the apartheid state. Their company, HYBE, has yet to make any statement in behalf of the group in response to the fan-organised boycott to demand the company to divest from zionism and to remove zionist and propagandist, Scooter Braun, who is part of their board and is the CEO of HYBE America.
Silence = Complicity:
For those who have passionately spoken out against other instances of genocide and massacres, yet fall silent when it comes to the suffering endured by Palestinians, their silence becomes a glaring indictment of the value placed on Palestinian lives and perpetuates a dangerous narrative that suggests Palestinian suffering is somehow less worthy of outrage, less deserving of empathy and less human than that of others.
By choosing silence in the face of Palestinian suffering, those with influential platforms inadvertently contribute to the erasure of Palestinian voices and experiences. They perpetuate a narrative of invisibility that allows the injustices inflicted upon Palestinians to continue unabated, shielded from the spotlight of global scrutiny.
Their silence sends a chilling message of complicity to the world – one that suggests Palestinian lives are expendable, their struggles inconsequential and their humanity negotiable. It emboldens perpetrators of violence and oppression, granting them impunity under the guise of indifference.
To remain silent in the face of Palestinian suffering is to betray the very essence of activism – the relentless pursuit of justice for all, without exception or equivocation. It’s a betrayal not only of the Palestinian people but of the universal principles of human dignity and equality and instead is a tacit endorsement of the dehumanization and marginalization of an entire population.
True activism demands consistency and integrity, an unwavering commitment to speaking truth to power and standing in solidarity with the marginalized and oppressed, regardless of geography or politics.
