I don't want to be rude, but why do gringos love Palestine so much? I hope someone answers me genuinely, on Twitter everyone insults me, but from my perspective they should support Israel, I mean, I do and my country has nothing to do with the conflict, it makes me very curious.

It's the same kids who blindly support BLM and thought George Floyd was some sort of a "saint" (even trough objectively, he was a criminal, you can google it)
It's ironic how majority of them are LGBT yet in Gaza they wouldn't make it out alive for being LGBT.

Standing against injustice and genocide isn't some kind of transactional arrangement wherein queer folks expect Palestinians to support them in return. Shocking as it may seem, some people are actually willing to live by their principles even when they don't stand to directly benefit from it. I'm sorry for anyone who is too hopelessly cynical to understand this.
Also, what the fuck do BLM and George Floyd have to do with anything in this post? Apart from fitting the general theme of how your comment history is weirdly focused on black people, that is.
I understand why people have such strong feelings about this and Israeli policy towards Palestinians has long been pretty fucked up... but what does One Piece have to do with it?

People like to see the characters they care about and the principles they believe in, in alignment. That's pretty much it. Not too complicated.
I'm not upset about hamas losing a war they started by killing toddlers. I am however upset for any civilians on either side (including those toddlers) getting caught up in this. I don't know which side is in the right, but it definitely isn't hamas.

It’s not the side dropping bombs on hospitals either.
This is kind of a dumb way to protest in general, but Luffy seems like a poor character to use in particular. He doesn't care about systemic injustice or grand causes. He only gets mad for himself or on behalf of a friend he knows on a personal level.
The only people winning are the extremists on both sides. Hamas gets all the PR they could have ever wanted to recruit more for their cause and in Israel you have extremeists who had always wanted to purge all the Palestinians finally having the fuel they wanted to justify actually doing it. The ones seeking peace were always the problem for both groups, and with these events they can finally fool people into thinking you have to choose one of their two sides.
