#Zara‘s newest ad campaign is mocking dead Palestinians.

Zara has pulled the ads that were allegedly mocking Gaza victims.
The video in the tweet above explains the theory.
This is one of those things like the octopus in the Greta picture, where it seems unlikely to be purposeful but also seems too specific to be a coincidence.
But I don’t know that, if the imagery is a reference to Gaza, that it is necessarily mocking the dead.
Zara has had a lot of controversies. I remembered several Nazi controversies, and just read the list on Wikipedia. There was some stuff that seemed to be actually referencing Nazism.
They sold concentration camp shirts with a Jew star.
I thought that was funny. I guess a Jew might think it was funny too.
The same with the swastika bag they sold.
It doesn’t really mean anything. It’s sort of like the current ads in question: is it just edgy, or what?
But the last controversy was the Jewish head designer at Zara sending a message to a Palestinian male model that read:
Maybe if your people were educated, then they wouldn’t blow up hospitals and schools that Israel helped to pay for in Gaza. Israelis don’t teach children to hate nor throw stones at soldiers as your people do.
That didn’t age well.
So maybe the latest ad campaign was mocking Gaza. I don’t know.
I thought Zara generally seemed okay. I thought it was funny when they refused to apologize for using “slave labor” in Xinjiang.
In general, this seems like a stupid distraction and people should be asking why the ICC isn’t issuing an arrest warrant for Bibi Netanyahu.
It seems like the Jews want you whining about ambiguous fashion ads that probably don’t even mean what they are suggested to mean so you’re not asking why the UN is not demanding that the US be held responsible for Israel’s actions.
But you know, Zara makes the only t-shirts that fit me. So I’ve got a dog in this fight.
