    How dare social media disrupt Israel’s narrative!

      “And the other thing is I hate, they put out tapes all the time. Every night, they’re releasing tapes of a building falling down. They shouldn’t be releasing tapes like that. They’re doing, that’s why they’re losing the PR war. They, Israel is absolutely losing the PR war,” Trump said.

      Oh that’s the problem. Not the atrocities, recording the atrocities.

        More importantly, showing the atrocities.

    Guess they are just saying the quiet part out loud now?

    They can’t control the narrative, and they don’t like it.

      Can’t have anything that gets in the way of manufacturing consent. Social media shows us the effects of the bombing and starvation, stuff they won’t show you on CNN/MSNBC/etc, and that’s why there’s such a gulf in opinion between generations.

    “Disrupting Israel’s narrative” as in “reporting on IDF war crimes”?

    He is accidently right. There should not be a narrative in the first place.

    But people eat up Israel and Hamas propaganda like crazy.

    And what gets lost is an actually nuanced discussion where people can criticise Israel’s actions without questioning if the country has a right to exist and defend itself in the frist place and being grouped with antisemites amplifying the same message but for the completely wrong reasons. And where people can criticise Hamas without instantly being in the same camp with those supporting genocidal actions against Palestinian civilians.

    Thanks to social media this has instead devolved into a brain-dead team sport only build on narratives. With facts and common sense being lost and one side pushing narratives helping the other to do the same, when there is no actual right side, only degrees of wrong.
