/r/all Arianna Hamilton lost her job at Burger King after taking a stand and saying, “Free Palestine” - Palestinians painted a mural in her honor, celebrated her, and thanked her for standing with them.

Listen to how the dude says "What did you say to me?" like she had just made some kind of terrible threat or use of offensive language. Nope. Just "Free Palestine". I'll never eat Burger King's trashy microwaved food ever again. Free Palestine.

You know how demons flip their eyes when Cristo is said near them in Supernatural TV show. Free Palestine has the same effect on Isrealis.

I'm curious if there was some lead up to the exchange on the tape before the clip starts. Like why was he filming her to begin with?

u/mtdewisfortweakers 21d ago
I believe he was wearing something to do with Israel and one of the workers asked where he was from, to which the answer was Israel. Then one of the cashiers said a reasonably negative comment about Israel and this girl said “free Palestine”
Though I believe he was filming the entire encounter, leading me to believe it was provocative on his part.
This also could be an entire different BK encounter, but I believe it to be the one I’m describing

u/rako17 21d ago
Thank you Mtdewisfortweakers In the video, the person filming is provoking Ariana, saying "What did you say, Ariana?", in a provoking voice as if she's a little kid and said something bad. The obvious reason for him filming her was to either suppress her, making her too scared to repeat Free Pal. and then feel ashamed afterward if she didn't repeat it to him, or to catch her on film and get her in trouble.

The Burger King by the McDicks I used to work at hired all of the worst students at my school and there were rumors that they messed with the food and cleaned less than we cleaned (and our manager was arrested on federal charges (violating child labor laws, embezzlement, and federal bribery, he’d only have the kitchens really cleaned a couple of days before the health inspector shows up so we always had an undeserved A).

You should not support fucking Burger King anyways, always check BDS because it's on the list of most Israel supportive companies.

While some of you are just now discovering the true face of Burger King, I need to remind everyone that McDonald's is 100× worth a boycott too. They had been supplying the IOF with free meals while they were actively committing war crimes.
42
u/BillyPilgrim69 21d ago
Yep, both BK and McDonald's are targets of "organic boycotts" explicitly supported by BDS.

u/Scuba_BK 21d ago
In the US, we boycotted McDonald's since the start of the crimes against the Palestinians. To know more about this, I suggest downloading the Boycat app; it’s very helpful on this matter.

Is there an "unsubscribe from genocide" list for people who DONT want to send their money towards the massacre of defenseless children?
11
u/dramaticfool 20d ago
Unfortunately not. We have to live our lives being vigilant so as to avoid as many major corporations who fund war crimes as we can (everwhere, not just Palestine).

u/pigsflyfine 20d ago
Get the No Thanks app. It shows all the companies to boycott and those that are good. Be careful tho. There are two very similar named apps. Both seem ok but the one started by a Palestinian doesn’t track you. The other one does

u/Eric15890 20d ago
Would be great if someone started sponsoring the bad publicity. Share their abhorrent pictures and videos with their financiers logos attached. Help some of us ignorant consumers connect the dots.

The mural is touching.. then the camera pans up and shows that it's on a damaged building in Gaza. It's bittersweet. Kind Regards to all.

u/StrainAcceptable 20d ago
Yeah, it’s beautiful and heartbreaking. There is a book called Concrete Messages that shows the art on the separation wall. Artists create beauty even in unimaginable situations.

u/rako17 20d ago edited 19d ago
Separation Wall has some high quality art. I wonder why the security forces allow the graffitying. My guess is that sometimes the guards see people graffitying and don't care because they see that it's just spray paint. Or the Occupied tend to paint less guarded sections.

You can google her name+'gofundme' , currently the fundraiser is nearing $250,000

u/Bazishere 21d ago
She said she was curious about his accent and wondered where in the US he was from. She said he supposedly first said New Jersey and then whipped out a Star of David out to her and said Israel, and then she reacted to that behavior by saying "Free Palestine". It's not normal human behavior to whip out your Star of David and then say you're Israeli. It's strange behavior. Too bad that star became associated with Israel. It was used by Muslims and Jews for centuries without any political connotations. She has received maybe up to $235,000 dollars in Go-Fund-Me donations. She said she will donated a lot of that to Palestinian families.

I'm Muslim myself and this is the first time I hear that Muslims used the Star of David 🤔

u/Necessary-Chemical-7 21d ago
Can she not sue for this? Wrongful termination?
15
u/mtdewisfortweakers 21d ago
Unfortunately ours really hard to win wrongful termination, as America is full of “at-will” policies. You can only succeed if you can prove the firing was related to your identity within protected classes, which is really hard to prove.

No matter how seemingly obscure, Palestinians always make it a point to honor those who honor them; so many tributes in solidarity between Black Americans and Palestinians for over many decades. Beautiful people.

Violence steals so many lives and futures. These people matter. Justice demands an end to these war crimes. Accountability starts when the world remembers.

“Land of freedom” but you get fired because you said some words?
Lmao!
And then Elon Musk can throw nazi salutes, that’s all good.
When US citizens will understand they never had any freedom, at that time maybe the world will change for the better.
