As has been pointed out to us over the past few days, Max Blumenthal and many in his camp regularly make a point of retweeting and sharing pro-Assad stances. (2/6)pic.twitter.com/LHAjZPwmmR

We here at Bluestockings want to be very clear on our decision to cancel the Killing Gaza screening the @nycDSA set for March 16. All the love to the DSA, it's clear that there wasn't enough due diligence on both our parts in regards to the film's director, Max Blumenthal. (1/6)

This goes from directly mocking Syrian refugees to suggesting that Assad's war crimes are completely fabricated. Which hurts not just the Syrian people but the sizeable Palestinian population within Syria.pic.twitter.com/wDT42rsER2

The objection to this screening is entirely based on Max Blumenthal and we are in talks with the DSA to screen another film that is made by and centers Palestinian voices in the ongoing conflict against the Israeli army. (4/6)

Bluestockings is a community space first and we want to make sure that our inclusivity does not come at the expense of Middle Eastern communities and activists. (5/6)

It's going to be hard to find someone who is ideologically pure. (Except me, of course, but I don't have any movies!)

That's not the issue whatsoever. Blumenthal has become a toxic and totally dishonest propagandist. He was once pro-Syrian Revolution, and changed his position completely without ever explaining why.

Thank you for cancelling this Assad propaganda event and understanding the plights and struggle of the Syrian people to obtain freedom from a barbaric regime that's been promoted by Russian stooges.
