Cynthia Nixon Sparks Controversy by Wearing Palestinian Flag-Inspired Shirt in And Just Like That… Trailer
Apr
Controversial Wardrobe Choice
The trailer opens with Nixon, reprising her role as Miranda, wearing a blouse with a red triangle and stripes in black, white, and green—colors that mirror the Palestinian flag. A red tie completes the look. The outfit quickly sparked heated reactions across social media.
Later in the trailer, Nixon appears in other fashionable outfits without any political messaging. The preview focuses on romantic plots, family issues, and Miranda’s evolving identity as a woman drawn to both women and non-binary people.
Public Reactions and Political Criticism
Nixon’s visible support for Palestinians amid the Israel-Hamas conflict has sparked recurring controversy. Critics have condemned her for overlooking human rights violations in Gaza, particularly the persecution of the LGBTQ+ community by Hamas.
Online reactions flooded in after the trailer dropped. Some viewers accused Nixon of using a light-hearted show to push political agendas. One commenter referenced her 2018 bid for New York governor, writing, “Maybe she could become the governor of Gaza.” Others dismissed her activism as “performative” and “out of touch.”
Nixon’s History of Activism
Nixon has taken part in multiple protests, including hunger strikes and rallies outside the White House. She made headlines by claiming, “Israel has killed more civilians in seven weeks than were killed during 20 years of war in Afghanistan.” Many critics flagged that claim as misleading. She also supported genocide accusations filed against Israel at the International Court of Justice.
Although she is a lesbian and the mother of Jewish children with Holocaust survivor grandparents, Nixon has remained silent on Hamas’s anti-LGBTQ+ stance. This silence has drawn strong criticism from both political and human rights observers.
Co-Star Takes a Different Approach
Unlike Nixon, her co-star Sarah Jessica Parker has kept a low profile on political matters. In 2019, Parker traveled to Israel with her husband, Matthew Broderick, and their children. Back in 2016, Nixon gave an interview to The Jerusalem Post about her film A Quiet Passion, avoiding political topics entirely.
