Yes.
tldr part
He still sucks don't get that part twisted, but he's a popular voice that has a wide audience and he's calling the genocide a genocide, which can overall help BDS and other pro Palestinian causes because many celebrities are either Zionist or afraid of ruining their career by speaking out. His position of running his entire career on the false narrative of "I'm being silenced" makes it harder to shut him up. For both better and worse.Remember, outside of leftist spaces, where the grass grows, and most people live, the legitimacy of 10/7 isn't even on the radar as whether or not the genocide is even a genocide is still intensely controversial and people who simply state it is get silenced.
However yes with the company he keeps if he gets too pally pally with Musk and Ye he can fuck that up easily
