The post has since gone viral, garnering over 26.9 million views on X.
BLM Chicago placed a graphic as the cover photo on its official Facebook page.
X owner Elon Musk responded to the post, writing, “Your position is clear.”

GOP Rep. Wesley Hunt of Texas posted:
“14 Americans are now confirmed dead from the attack on Israel.
Hundreds of Israelis have been murdered, burned alive, and viciously raped and maimed.
And this is how BLM reacts.
Never forget who these people are.
Never ever yield to their demands AGAIN.”

As The Daily Fetched reported on Tuesday, former NBA star Amare Stoudemire condemned BLM for remaining silent on the Israel attacks before eventually publishing their post.
Stoudemire took to social media following the news of the Israel attacks:
“I woke up, man this morning with some disturbing news out of Israel that Hamas is kidnapping children, putting them in cages, killing women, killing the elderly,” he said.
“That’s some coward s**t. That’s cowardly.”
“And for all y’all Black Lives Matter who aren’t saying nothing, ‘well let me figure out exactly what happened before I say anything,’ f*** you,” the former NBA star said in reference to BLM and their silence on the Israel attacks.
Over 900 Israelis have been killed, with 2,600 injured after Hamas launched attacks on Saturday.
At least 11 Americans are reportedly killed in the attacks, while some have been kidnapped and held hostage inside Gaza.
