Since this is a meme I'll give the meme answer: Luffys personal politics extents as far as the hand that hands him a burger. Dude shows up on islands, gets fed and then fucks up whoever tries to hurt the people that fed him.
It just so happens that haughty nobles are dickheads that won't share their meals, while the downtrodden masses share what little they have.
Now tell me: who do you think is more likely to give Luffy a piece of bread? The Israeli settlers or the Palestinians? The houthi freedom fighters or lance -corporal McMormon?
I don't think that's entirely true. Luffy was pretty adamant that the people of Wano should be able to eat until their stomachs are full every day. I can't find the citation and if someone could help me I'd appreciate it. There's also the evergreen moment where he punches Charlos because he was being an oppressive asshole.
Which is to say that even if Israel gave him hummus, he has a habit of going to go see what's going on in Gaza and it doesn't leave him feeling conflicted when he fights for Palestine.
I found a YouTube link in your comment. Here are links to the same video on alternative frontends that protect your privacy:
I agree completely, it's just that the meme is "lol luffy fights for wendys"
