ALBAWABA - Self-proclaimed Israeli human rights activist Sheffi Paz sparked outrage on social media after posting an AI video of herself operating a garbage truck in Tel Aviv and removing African migrants from the streets.
The video featured NSYNC's hit song 'Bye Bye Bye' playing in the background.
Paz took to X (formerly Twitter) on August 8 and wrote, "Sanitation Department - We're here for you!"
She added, "To the readers gathered here from around the world, this video is not about skin color but about the infiltrators who have forced themselves on the local population and are lying drugged in the streets of our neighborhoods. The fact that they came from Eritrea and Sudan is not my fault. You are welcome to stay and follow me. Maybe you will learn something about the fight against illegal immigrants who harm the citizens of the country."
Israeli 'activist' posts racist AI video of African migrants being moved like trash
The AI video in question sparked backlash among social media users and human rights activists:
"Unbelievable how a lesbian, a persecuted minority in society for no small part of the people, persecutes other minorities in a Nazi-like manner.
Disgusting."
"This is a horrifying video by any measure, and I'm fundamentally very supportive of your struggle and can't imagine what you're going through."
"Wow, Shafi, you're a terrible, racist, and inciting woman. This video is disturbingly horrifying in a deranged way, and the truth is that I'm not even bothered by you at all—you've always been like this. What bothers me is that we've reached dark days where you're almost normalized here in certain crowds. I'm just shocked by this video. Shocked that this platform hasn't blocked you yet."
Despite the backlash, the video remains on the platform with the Israeli activist doubling down on her views, stressing that the video is not about skin color.
