Michael Lucas, an adult film producer, received criticism after tweeting a picture of an Israeli Defense Force missile bearing his name.
Michael Lucas, an adult film producer well-known for his pro-Israel views, suffers a setback to his profession after tweeting a picture of an IDF missile bearing his name. On December 17, Lucas tweeted, “Hahaha I actually asked to write my name.”
Adult film business responded swiftly, with Iranian-American porn actor Shahrokh The Mosavinejad at the forefront of the movement. Following his accusations that Lucas was a “accessory to murder and genocide,” a flurry of hashtags including #boycottmichaellucas and #boycottLucasEntertainment were created. He stated, “In my book, anyone who believes that writing notes on missiles is some sort of sick flex is an accessory to murder and genocide of innocent Palestinian civilians.”
Other porn celebrities joined the boycott, including Sean Xavier, alias Kyle Overton. “I don’t want to draw more attention to the post; I find it both saddening and reprehensible,” said Overton. “I will not be promoting my work with that studio any longer, nor will I accept any future offers to work with them,” I said, voicing the rising disapproval of Lucas.
Defying criticism, Lucas called those attempting to cancel him “vile antisemites.” “The people trying to cancel me are nothing but vile antisemites,” he says, refusing to express regret. Such hatred for Israelis and such backing for those who would commit the most heinous acts of murdering Jews and homosexuals defies comprehension. From his present location in Tel Aviv, he tweeted, “I am not intimidated by this and I won’t delete the tweet no matter how many threats I receive.”
Producer of movies such as “Michael Lucas’ La Dolce Vita,” Lucas has a reputation for vocally endorsing Israel. His “Men of Israel” garnered media attention as the first significant pornographic film featuring an exclusively Jewish cast.
Lucas is still a big supporter to Israeli charities in spite of the controversy, especially throughout the nation’s crises. Soldiers from the Israeli Defense Force are seen thanking Lucas in an Instagram video that he posted. “Thank you very much, Michael Lucas, for the wonderful evening we had last night and for your kindness. We cherish you. The troops said, “Thank you very much.”
