Tensions are high everywhere right now, and I normally stay quiet about things like this. But I feel a responsibility to speak up.I’ve known this individual for many years, and I recently shared a post about my background. The moment I mentioned that I am half Palestinian, his behavior changed. His reaction made it clear that my identity does not sit well with him.Based on my direct experiences, Brennan Blades has engaged in openly racist conduct and has expressed views aligned with white‑supremacist ideology. This is not a misunderstanding or a disagreement it is a pattern of behavior rooted in prejudice.In my opinion, anyone in the FMA martial arts community should think carefully before supporting this business. Choosing to spend money there means choosing to endorse the attitudes and actions that come with it.Ultimately, everyone decides for themselves who they support. I’m simply sharing what I’ve witnessed so our community can make informed decisions and choices
