Israel’s Brutality Is Increasing—and So Is Its Denialism - Lemmy Today

A human rights monitor documented the sniping of at least 13 children in and around Shifa Hospital, all between the ages of 4 and 16.

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.

On the other hand if you post something against Ukraine and you are banned within minutes

Lemmy freedom of speech at its finest :)

…why would you be against Ukraine, exactly?
They’re a Russian stoog?
Ukraine being clearly having the moral high ground as a sovereign state defending itself, yes, expect to be downvoted for trying to contract what we all see with our own eyes.
Bro they literally started the war 😂
WTF are you smoking, and where can I get some, comrade?
Impressive. How do you go about starting a defensive war of conquest?
By having the stupid idea of existing next to Russia (or a similar country).
Depends on the instance.

You can still say there is rampant corruption in ukraine. They have embezzeled billions in aid.

But it all seems miniscule in front of the existential crisi they are in.
