The chokehold Israeli Intelligence / Propaganda wing has on reddits worldnews subreddit is freakin depressing (and scary in how total it is).
Post anything even remotely critical to anything Israel did and within minutes you’ll have a dozen downvotes and people outright warping reality in their response to you, all on relatively recent accounts that only ever respond to posts related to Israel. They aren’t subtle about it in the slightest.
And stories like them murdering foreign aid workers on purpose just get magicked away.
You need both.
Some people won’t ever hear anything about the issues until they see some weird kid do these stunts or see that someone their age can have a word in the discussion too.
Others are more likely to pay attention to scientists, the type that read more intellectual literature.
And then there’s those who won’t ever change their mind because they’ve been spoonfed corporate propaganda and thanks to religion and just generally being dumbasses, are perfectly primed to be managed in this way.
