this picture is of the Israeli Ambassador to Brazil, Yossi Shelley , having a meal with the President of Brazil, Jair Bolsonaro, in a fish restaurant. Sheli had himself a plate of lobster and before uploading the picture Shelley made sure to have the lobster unprofessionally blurred out of the picture, seemingly to avoid causing a ruckus back home in Israel among people who would not be happy seeing the Israeli representative publicly displaying his non-kosher plate of food. The result was politicians making political hay out of it, along with social media users having a great time with hundreds of comments and photoshopped images laughing at what could have been..
1. I could not care less what he eats
2. I don't know why he had to black out the plate of the Brazilian President as well. Did he think people would get upset at what Bolsonaro was eating as well?
3. If he is blacking out the lobster, it is a good thing there were no women int he picture! Think of what he would have to do to get rid of them!
4. how does that saying go? First they came for the women, and I did not speak out— Because I was not a woman. Then they came for the lobster, and I did not speak out— Because I was not a lobster. Then they came for the Jews, and I did not speak out— Because I was not a Jew. Then they came for me—and there was no one left to speak for me...
