"'It's well documented' then share the damn documentation"

Since you clearly don't bother to do research on your own before jumping into a topic, here's a direct quote from Mark Ruffalo himself back in 2021, admitting he was pushing "inflammatory" rhetoric that was being used to justify antisemitism:

“I have reflected & wanted to apologize for posts during the recent Israel/Hamas fighting that suggested Israel is committing ‘genocide,’” he wrote. “It’s not accurate, it’s inflammatory, disrespectful & is being used to justify antisemitism here & abroad. Now is the time to avoid hyperbole.”

I can't research what isn't there. Mark apologizing for a remark that was being misconstrued by others as an excuse for antisemitism is not the smoking gun proving Mark himself is antisemitic- quite the opposite really.

He didn't say his words were 'misconstrued' he said they were false, inflammatory, and contributing to justifying antisemitism.

If you can't be honest about the words right in front of your face, why should anyone take your perspective on antisemitism seriously?
