Why Muslim K-pop fans love RM

Whelps I can’t even go through the quotes without seeing him getting dragged beyond 5 tweets.

Someone will think he did something bad

But Namjoon is a very kind person. He has multiple artworks dedicated to Palestine and has spoken about Palestine in one of his lives.

I didn’t know this until RECENTLY! I’m not a practicing Muslim (I’m agnostic) but I do come from a Muslim background. RM has a heart of gold for recognising Palestine and the struggle of Palestinian people.

This is refreshing to see. There are countless celebrities who show support for Israel(Maybe by force?), and its kind of disgusting to witness. Like that Hulk actor....He immediately retracted his statement, when he voiced his support for Palestine unfortunately.

PS: May God make you rediscover the beauty of Islam. Ameen

Maybe Hamas will host a show and he can perform.

But better say no to any fireworks..

And RM should not mention his support of LGBTQ either.

Risky stuff.

Yes I like RM

I’ve seen that too, many celebrities get cancelled for even mentioning Palestine exists. Makes me appreciate Bella Hadid so much for always fighting for Palestine rights as a Palestinian Queen herself. Any celebrity who shows support for Palestine is incredibly brave since the industry literally boycotts people for doing so.

this happened on eurovision

like the tweet said, icelandic broadcaster was punished because their artists broke the rule: politics is not allowed at the event. and this year the winners who were ukranians, had a huge ass winning speech about ukraine, talked about mariupol and finished it with slava ukraini, and nothing happened. surprise, surprise. i'm not dragging ukraine and ukranian winners, i'm complaining about injustice and hypocrisy. it's allowed to talk about issues europe supports and those they don't, here comes the punishment.

This is so sad but not surprising in the least It really seems like Eurovision wants to appease the Israeli Government & this is blatant hypocrisy right here.

but kudos to the band, they did this in israel where the contest took place lol

they are activists and known for doing "controversial" stuff and people were afraid they'd do something on the stage and be disqualified. when it didn't happen people were happy because their song was good and it would be missed in the final. but when the votes were being announced for island and we got close up shot of them, they showed the flag lol. the broadcaster tried to remove the camera fast but it was too late. and this is the screenshot from their moment

slava ukraini is fine but let's punish palestine flag...

Mmm. I dont know about the first. But i think a Bansky dont mean Free Palestine per se.

It is actually smart to do "Free Palestine" than other issues, since the Jewish whatever be their other strengths are a tiny market.

Whereas Muslims are majoritarian in 50+ countries, and huge in India - they operate more on the basis of religion, than nationality.

Whereas Free Kashmir will piss off a huge Indian-Hindu market.

Tibet, Taiwan or Xinjiang - definitely no no.

In S. Korea there are protests against migrant Muslims building a mosque, I am betting RM will be very silent on that issue

Celebrity endorsements of causes are "no skin in the game".

It was found out that Rihanna was paid for tweeting against the Indian government by separatists

So who knows.

Thankfully barring some emotional itch scratching on social media, celebrity activism has zero impact on the ground.

They can do that in Israel and at worst get a slap on the wrist.

But can they try anything like that in Palestine or most other Islamic States -anything critical of the regime.. ?

What is the 'kudos' in pulling stunts in a liberal democratic state?

One thing that shows how relevant and great Namjoon is, is how many people are willing to spend their time trying to drag him instead of doing something productive with their lives

Namjoon king, and yes, Free Palestine!
