Absolutely deranged. I love it.
You mean I can use a cute little stuffed octopus as a symbol of my autism and support for Palestine? I think I might get one.
I've seen a few old articles (2 years ago) saying these toys were 'viral on tiktok'. So I guess lots of younger folks are familiar with them to some degree. The reach of the zionists over this toy is verging into 'ok boomer' territory.
I know some of those references!
