Rock legend John Mellencamp didn’t mince words at this weekend’s Creative Community for Peace gala — reminding Hollywood what real courage looks like. “I don’t like to call it antisemitism,” he said. “It’s too polite a word for what it really is. Hatred is what it really is.” Mellencamp, who isn’t Jewish, spoke about learning empathy as a teenager working for a Jewish shop owner — and how that early kindness shaped him for life. “I may just be a guy with a guitar,” he said, “but I promise the Jewish people I’ll remain a staunch ally as long as I’m on this earth.” And to the Jewish haters? “F–k you.” ✡️👏 A rare voice of moral clarity in a sea of silence.
