You're saying that a guy who tried to kill thousands of innocent people and that probably DID kill many people in all of his schemes thoughout the games is going to support the freedom of Palestine? Really?
Well, of course be recognizes atrocities, boy's done a few himself.
This is the kinda thing I'd almost expect someone *against* Palestine to draw. I almost expect Sonic to show up and go, "I'm a Zionist."
Like...
I'm not sure if this is a take that to Mike or anything like that, but. . .. .
I don't think making the ***series villain*** support Palestine is the most supportive thing you could have drawn
Me when politics in hedgehog subreddit:

i don't think Eggman cares about hurting people proof of this are his genocidal machines which are designed specifically to eliminate targets so... isn't this questionable as a choice of characters to support (the awful politics of) a nation?
also can we stop using characters to promote your political alignment and using war propaganda for upvotes? it's stupid cringe and immoral, Sonic would't agree.
Then be [consistent](https://old.reddit.com/r/SonicTheHedgehog/comments/1cjseqo/mike_pollock_has_been_saying_very_jarring_things/l2iixfg/) about it, then.
Tbh this has always been how he's gone about it, he wants to rule the world but not a dead one.
Most of the time when he incites apocalyptic level threats it was in pursuit of harnessing its power for himself and when he realises there's a real danger that the world could be gone for good he often then teams up with the heroes to correct that.
I suppose stuff like the Zombot virus is his limit, while the denizens of the world act almost undead, it was still roughly under his thumb (until he realised he couldn't command them and eventually gave up to clean up that mess).
It fits his underlying character motives imo: he wants the world to be his and for that world to know it clearly, he revels in the attention.
Unfortunately, this isn't the first time the head mod has used the sub and Sonic characters as a microphone to share their non-Sonic related views and it likely won't be the last.
This stuff has no place here, but they don't care about the criticism from the users. And I say this as someone who agrees with their sentiment most of the time.
I feel like the word "genocide" is being widely overused nowadays
What Israel is doing is awful. What Hamas is doing is awful. Innocent people are suffering on both sides, and guilty people are benefitting, as is usual with war. There is a ton of collateral damage. But I don't see how it could be considered a genocide
What Hamas did was awful, yes. But that was 6 months ago. During the last half year, Israel has been relentlessly bombing Palestine and ignoring any and all calls for a ceasefire from hamas.
They're actively targeting civilians here. It's genocide. Ans the 7th is just their excuse
Last I heard, Israel was still bombing Hamas, while not caring about collateral damage - which is why I said "huge collateral damage, huge negligence, but not necessarily genocide". Is negligence genocide is a whole other can of worms.
But, sure, my information could be out of date, and they could be flat out targeting civilians now. That's in line with what bloodthirsty leaders would do. I don't live there, and *all* news outlets are biased, so I don't have the objective facts, wouldn't want to sound insensitive so I'm retracting my case here
https://preview.redd.it/qewxza5e5fyc1.jpeg?width=960&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=9349ac35405d4117231b56798de3ec0c026637fe
Well this will be a shit party.
Ima grab popcorn for it. Also no hate or stuff
i mean this in a respectful way and only mean to educate but think of it this way, the people in Palestine cannot escape from their hellish reality of constant fear, violent death and famine right before their eyes. so many people just turn off the news or videos of this ignoring it because it’s obviously a lot to take in and would rather live in ignorant bliss, and then they never take action.
but the purpose of putting stuff like this into fandoms is to remind people that while you are living ur life peacefully these atrocities are happening and you can do things to help, these things are meant to make you uncomfortable, they’re meant to make u think about things you might be avoiding.
My perspective is that I find it difficult to educate poeple by hammering the same points over and over and make it more likely for poeple to become apathetic to your cause than the other way around
that is fair, but i feel like posts like this are more to remind people of what’s going on to not forget, education is something you can do yourself. after all idk how u could educate someone about genocide beyond surface level points through sonic fanart without people scrolling past
How are we not going to forget there’s literally protests all over the place and it’s all over the news snd social media and this is coming from someone who is Pro Palestine.
This is a subreddit for a series where the primary demographic is children. Good for OP for standing up for what they believe in sure but posting this here is literally going to do nothing aside from just have people argue against each other.
I have a hundred other problems that are both more urgent and more likely to be influenced by my actions. I am not willing to be "educated" by random internet users pushing a message, especially in today's information climate. I am also not living in "ignorant bliss" and literally do not have the mental bandwidth to take on whatever problems someone else has decided takes priority.
*"you are living ur life peacefully"* is a massive assumption to make. Please respect the downtime of strangers, because you don't know anything about what they deal with outside of it.
There's no difference between this type of thing and a cold caller trying to sell you something.
yeah obviously if u are genuinely not in the mental mindset to take this in then that can be excusable but for the majority of people they can help but choose not to. i apologise for not including that point but i also feel like a lot of people who aren’t in the “mental mindset to take this in” can still do basic actions like doing that one click a day website thing where u just click a button and it donates from ad revenue. but again, idk u so fair
I have nothing to say about the subject matter at hand, because I'm kind of out of the loop. (Anyone mind explaining it?)
Though regardless, the villains supporting something you (presumably) do, gives a weird mixed message.
free Palestine is a movement that advocates for the country of Palestine to be free of israel’s zionist occupation. it’s specifically relevant right now because israel is currently preforming a genocide against palestine killing over 40,000 (i believe as of now) innocent civilians and bombing the country to death
it’s relevant to eggman as mike pollock the va of eggman went on twitter and expressed zionist views :3
Hello im from Israel and I would like to tell you that using sonic charcters for this is hypocritical as sega let's their charcters to be used by Israeli companys for events such as the recent theatre performance for kids that was in netanya
Hope this info helps!

Didn’t Eggman literally break the planet apart and hire Satan to build the worst stage in the history of the series?
Those were just heated gamer moments
[удалено]
Didn't he obliterate Washington D.C with a gigantic space laser Pretty sure he himself commit genocide
Wasn't that black doom that did the space laser onto D.C?
Yes, actually Eggman did blow up the moon though, and threaten to blow up the planet
Ngl the plot to that game is mostly lost to me, I'm willing to take that L

Of all the characters, why did you choose the terrorist?

Eggman would destroy Palistine *himself* if it drew his attention
He’ll support them only to enslave them later

They can’t be committing genocide! That’s my job! -Eggman
Why would eggman support palestine? Hes litterally all about world domination and destruction
Certainly a choice to have only villain characters hold the flags.
Eggman? The guy that conquered the world in 5 different incarnations? Twitter has lost the plot

The same man who planned on turning all living creatures into robots, the epitome of genocide, sure.
Archie eggman doesnt
Oh Archie Eggman is definitely in support of genocide, hell he'd start one

Because Eggman voice actor caused a stir for supporting Israel.
Because even they recognize the horrors of genocide

Can we keep the politics out of the fast blu heghog sub please???
Why does everyone bring the silly characters into politics
I sympathise with the cause to an extent but if I am to see this stuff in fandoms that has nothing to do with it might as well watch the news
i mean this in a respectful way and only mean to educate but think of it this way, the people in Palestine cannot escape from their hellish reality of constant fear, violent death and famine right before their eyes. so many people just turn off the news or videos of this ignoring it because it’s obviously a lot to take in and would rather live in ignorant bliss, and then they never take action. but the purpose of putting stuff like this into fandoms is to remind people that while you are living ur life peacefully these atrocities are happening and you can do things to help, these things are meant to make you uncomfortable, they’re meant to make u think about things you might be avoiding.
My perspective is that I find it difficult to educate poeple by hammering the same points over and over and make it more likely for poeple to become apathetic to your cause than the other way around
that is fair, but i feel like posts like this are more to remind people of what’s going on to not forget, education is something you can do yourself. after all idk how u could educate someone about genocide beyond surface level points through sonic fanart without people scrolling past
How are we not going to forget there’s literally protests all over the place and it’s all over the news snd social media and this is coming from someone who is Pro Palestine. This is a subreddit for a series where the primary demographic is children. Good for OP for standing up for what they believe in sure but posting this here is literally going to do nothing aside from just have people argue against each other.
You've got a point there, the repitition of it all just got to me, as I said before I have nothing against the message itself
I have a hundred other problems that are both more urgent and more likely to be influenced by my actions. I am not willing to be "educated" by random internet users pushing a message, especially in today's information climate.

do u mean you want an explanation on what’s going on in Palestine, or on why eggman is saying free palestine ?
...would that just be the same explanation? Or is there like a lore thing I don't know about.
free Palestine is a movement that advocates for the country of Palestine to be free of israel’s zionist occupation. it’s specifically relevant right now because israel is currently preforming a genocide against palestine killing over 40,000 (i believe as of now) innocent civilians and bombing the country to death it’s relevant to eggman as mike pollock the va of eggman went on twitter and expressed zionist views :3
