Amanda, Moses, Sahar and Linor cover various topics related to progressive societies, homophobia, progress and tolerance, culture vs values, Iran and anti-Semitism, pinkwashing and double standards, Zionism, criticism of government, Palestinian identity, and closing remarks.

Sahar is a digital marketer living in Tel Aviv, Israel. He is of Moroccan descent and grew up in Jaffa.


Linor is a trans woman and the CEO of an organization supporting Trans women in Israel. She is of Moroccan descent. 


Takeaways

  • Progressive societies can still have pockets of homophobia and narrow-mindedness.
  • Progress and tolerance go hand in hand, and societies that are open to the world tend to be more progressive.
  • Culture and values are separate entities, and one can adopt democratic values without giving up their culture.
  • Double standards and hypocrisy exist when it comes to discussions about Israel and the Palestinian conflict.
