Many influencers were paid off with money, but some want a more pro-terrorist policy from Kamala, too.

Pro-Palestinian influencers have intensified their social media campaigns against Vice President Kamala Harris, urging her to adopt a tougher stance on Israel as the presidential race.

Key Details:

Influencer Ahmed Eldin, with 1.1 million followers, has consistently criticized Harris's support for Israel on social media.

Influencers like Rosy Pirani have shifted their content focus to the Gaza conflict, significantly increasing their followings.

The online campaigns are pressuring Harris to distance herself from Biden's policies on Israel, appealing to young voters disillusioned with the administration's stance.

Diving Deeper:

According to the Wall Street Journal, within hours of President Biden announcing his decision to drop out of the 2024 presidential race and endorse Vice President Kamala Harris as the Democratic nominee, pro-Palestinian influencers mobilized online to pressure Harris into adopting a more critical stance on Israel. Leading the charge is Ahmed Eldin, a former journalist of Palestinian descent, who took to Instagram to highlight Harris's past affiliations with Israeli leaders, urging his 1.1 million followers to intensify their scrutiny of her positions.

Eldin's Instagram feed has since been dominated by content condemning Harris's stance on the Israel-Hamas conflict, accusing her of complicity in the violence against Gaza. This is part of a broader movement by pro-Palestinian influencers who have used social media to rally young voters and others disillusioned by the Biden administration's unwavering support for Israel.

Unwavering support for Israel? Seriously, MXMNews?

...

Rosy Pirani, another prominent pro-Palestinian influencer, has seen her following on Instagram triple since she began focusing on the Gaza conflict. A lifelong Democrat of South Asian descent, Pirani was once known for her lighthearted content. However, her recent posts have taken on a more serious tone, sharing graphic images from Gaza and calling out Harris and Biden for their perceived inaction.

As the Democratic Party's convention takes place in Chicago, Harris finds herself in a difficult position. While she has called for a cease-fire and criticized Israel's actions, her continued support for Israel's right to defend itself, in line with Biden's policies, has not gone unnoticed by pro-Palestinian activists.

The influence of social media in shaping public opinion, particularly among younger Americans, has become undeniable. A Pew Research Center survey found that people under 30 are almost as likely to trust social media as they are national news outlets. This shift in trust, coupled with the raw, emotional content shared by influencers, has created a formidable challenge for Harris and the Democratic Party as they navigate the 2024 election.

I heard about this last week: Black TikTok is getting angry at Muslim Terrorist TikTok for refusing to vote for their (half-black) girl over demands that Kamala expressly support Hamas in its war on Israel.

I didn't write this up, because I don't know how to search TikTok. And anyway, it's not my job. It's America's Oldest Teenager Taylor Lorenz's job.

Of course, she's not covering it, because it would hurt her precious Democrat Media Fascist Party.

This Telegraph article writes of the "coming Hamas split" in the left's ranks.

Is the partnership between African-Americans and pro-Palestine activists rapidly beginning to unravel? Are Black activists finally realizing their anti-racism agenda has been co-opted by Hamas-loving terror-deniers with whom they have little or nothing in common? And will this unholy alliance finally come to a violent crescendo this week at the Democratic National Convention in Chicago -- where 100,000 anti-Israel protesters intend to disrupt the coronation of America's first female/Black/Indian-American presidential candidate?

That's the tantalizing prospect as influencer-advocates from both sides begin to clash over competing -- and fundamentally incompatible -- visions for their self-described liberation struggles. And while this conflict may involve a rainbow tribe of anti-Israel agitators, the skirmishes between Black Americans and Arab-Americans reveal the fragile fault lines among the intersectional far Left.

Take a series of social media posts on TikTok last week. In them, Arab activist-influencers -- many raw and unhinged -- essentially demand their Black counterparts abandon campaigning for Kamala Harris because of her support for the "genocide" in Gaza. "The way y'all switched up and did a 180 on Palestinians ... the second we have a black woman run for office is disgusting," declared TikTok user @dan1ahan. "Keep Palestinians' names out of your f-cking mouth when defending your decision to vote for Kamala," added an Arab-American creator menacingly, in typical woke Gen-Z vulgarity.

True, Harris has repeatedly insisted that Israel has a right to defend itself and yes she's yet to agree to an arms embargo against Jerusalem. But Harris also been far more critical of Israel's Gaza campaign than her boss, President Biden, and has repeatedly called for a ceasefire. She would also be much more likely to facilitate that ceasefire than her Republican rival, Donald Trump, who's indicated he supports Israel's "total victory" strategy in Gaza. But like so many "woke" causes, committing to Palestine demands complete fealty and allegiance -- even at the expense of your own best interests. And so the TikTokers -- many hysterical and ranting through tears -- accuse their Black American allies of nothing less than treason for wanting one their own to win the White House.

Similar allegations of race betrayal were meted out to a Black Vanderbilt University officer during yet another pro-Palestinian melee that same month. "You are Black in America, and you're not standing with the marginalized people of the world," the protestors shouted at him. "What does that make you?"

...

"We spend our money with you ... we stand in solidarity with you, and you keep asking for more ... it's never enough," one Black tiktoker retorted. "These are people who feel like they are entitled to the support of Black people no matter what," she continues. "That they get to push us around and tell us who the hell we get to vote for ... they've lost their minds."

...

For Black people -- particularly Black women, the most loyal Democratic voting block -- Harris's ascent feels nothing less than miraculous. But for pro-Palestinian groups, Harris is nothing less than calamitous.

"It's not going to make a difference, that [Harris] represents this administration," said Hatem Abudayyeh, chair of the US Palestinian Community Network. "We're going to stay full steam ahead."

Let them fight.
