Social media users have launched “Operation Blockout” to mass block high-profile celebrities and influencers who have not used their platform to shed light on the ongoing genocide in Gaza and advocate for a ceasefire. “These people have all the opportunity to make change in this world and instead of using their platform to talk about shit that matters, they use it to make themselves money. That’s it. Fuck ‘em. Block ‘em,” said one user on TikTok. Some users are posting their daily block list on social media using the hashtags #blockout or #blockout2024
