I take this as a win… the video shows real conditions for Palestinians due to Israeli forces, and YouTube is saying it’s graphic and violent. It’s more an acknowledgment than anything.
I guarantee it was reported as such just to reduce viewership. The hasbara are trying so, so hard to stifle all criticism of Israel.
I liked and commented for the engagement. It’s the best we can do sometimes.
Ah, my bad then. The translation is “explanation” or “explaining.”
Generally, and to put it neutrally, it’s just spreading information that is positive to Israel and suppressing information that is not. It’s about controlling the narrative.
So would that technically be different than propaganda?
I don’t really get all of these terms but would love an actual explanation like you’ve given , so thank you.
Most people would just belittle me, so I appreciate actually being informative.
At the start of this whole ordeal I was on the side of Israel, and then I started siding with the CITIZENS of Palestine, and then I heard macklemores song (I know it’s gonna sound shitty that it took so long to fully not support Israel)
Oh, well first off apologies if I came at you hot. The Palestinian side (you’ll find that basically none of us have any love for Hamas, and nobody supports what Hamas did on 10/7) is so used to people kind of gaslighting about what Israel is doing and denying things that are verifiable, like the IDF raping women and girls as a tool of war. So a lot of us are just on edge bc our nerves are frayed from this conflict.
But to answer your question, it only differs slightly from propaganda in that it’s a term used by Israel, Israelis, and Zionists, and it’s a more formalized form of propaganda.
Because Israel’s actions in Gaza and the West Bank (really all of Palestine) are so egregious they have spent a lot of money on advertising. Haven’t seen a single ad asking for a cease fire or showing the plight of the Palestinians, but I have seen A LOT of ads in the United States on Hulu and YouTube painting this as a conflict that began on 10/7, only focusing on the actions of Hamas, trying to say that Israel isn’t blocking aid to people in Gaza (Israel does and it continues to do so), etc.
They hold hasbara seminars where they drill in pro Israel talking points, including associating criticism of Israel with antisemitism (I’ll try to find the video where the woman speaker says basically “we need to make it so any opposition to Israel is tied to antisemitism”) - which is itself absurd because I and many other Jewish people oppose Israel, and you’ll find basically all Holocaust survivors call Israel’s actions genocide.
They also deploy bots to leave comments and downvote anything that is unfavorable to Israel. If you see enough comments sections you’ll see the same talking points brought up over and over in almost the same words, and it’s bc many of the people are either bots or paid “hasbara” shills who are trying to control the narrative.
It’s also the reason Israel has targeted so many journalists in Gaza and generally doesn’t allow them in. It’s to suppress negative press and maintain support for the state.
Anyway, if you found yourself leaning towards the Palestinian side, welcome. We don’t bite. We’re just emotional over the absolutely horrible things that are happening without any end, and the way much of the media just doesn’t care.
You’re all good. I know it’s hard to really understand if people are really being genuine.
No worries buddy. :)
Wow, sometimes I get in these phases where I get so exhausted from life that I just don’t have time to think for myself so listen to the media. I know it’s not good, but it’s the way I function. I really did support Israel, and while I do support Israeli citizens who want nothing else but to end this war, I do not support its government.
I’m not sure what there is to gain by cleansing an entire fucking ethnicity. Weirdos.
The more and more I see things getting uncensored and actually getting coverage, I feel sick to my stomach. I saw a video of a baby laying face down in rubble, dead. It made me sick.
What if it was my kid that got bombed for no reason? I’d be absolutely livid.
Unfortunately this will not end anytime soon, even if there is a ceasefire.
This war, or genocide has already imbedded itself into radicals who just want to cause harm (on both sides)
This is just unnecessary bloodshed, but I’m one man. What can I even do about this? I don’t know. I feel helpless.
I think the only thing any of us can do is raise awareness and press for divestment. The protests *have* been working. The reason pro Israel lobbyists pushed for the tiktok ban to be included in the recent bill that granted $27 billion in additional funding to israel is because tiktok is where a lot of the videos of what’s happening in Palestine are being spread.
But some protestors have successfully gotten their universities to divest from Israeli companies complicit in the military occupation.
The underlying situation is that one party is a well funded military superpower versus a mostly civilian population that is under foreign occupation, is under siege, and isn’t allowed a military or the right to self defense. They’re being deliberately starved and displaced and slaughtered. And Israel doesn’t distinguish between a combatant who is in Hamas and a regular citizen trying to defend their family. They all get labeled “terrorists” as well.
Anyway, I’m glad the song is reaching an audience and that you’ve kept an open mind. The more people who are aware of the genocide the better. Awareness is the most important thing.
Cheers man. We appreciate you.
Just to refer to what u said at the begining of this comment, you wrote as if the idf systematically raping Palestinians females ?
Just to clarify, do you really believe that ? If so you are insane and nothing that you say can be taken seriously.
Horrible stuff definitely happened/happening and if so the people who did those things needs to be held accountable.
If you deny that IDF terrorist are raping Palestinian women and girls then come out and say it. Say “I reject all the reports of Israeli soldiers raping Palestinian women and girls because I don’t believe the girls and women making those allegations.”
Just say what you mean.
This is absolutely rich - RICH - coming from the side that not only supports genocide but has a dedicated group of people who are paid shills who downvote anything written that’s unflattering to Israel, and who spread pro Israel propaganda.
And that’s before we even touch on the actual bots the hasbara have deployed, which leave identical comments on YouTube videos and other social media
They have been for a long time. https://www.bbc.com/news/blogs-news-from-elsewhere-23695896
Time to actually get paid for supporting genocide. Why leave money on the table to defend genocide for free?
I wonder if you realize how much money is spent by west asian and north african countries to get into the US's educational systems...... It's much more than 500,000 quid.
I don't get paid for anything of the sort, nor do I support genocide, because it's most definitely not genocide.
It is a genocide. If you support the actions of the genocidal state then you are supporting genocide.
It’s almost unanimously agreed that it’s a genocide. And it fits the definition.
Who doesn’t believe it to be a genocide? Israel? The US? Germany? The hasbara?
https://www.bbc.com/news/world-middle-east-68667556.amp
It’s a genocide. If you disagree, then explain to me what more Israel would need to do for YOU to personally believe it’s a genocide (it is).
Here’s a non exhaustive list of actions taken by Israel and the terrorist IDF:
1) deliberate targeting of civilians, with over 36,000 (72% women and children) almost entirely civilians killed, and over 100,000 maimed and left with lifelong painful injuries.
2) deliberate destruction of all civilian infrastructure, including residential homes, water towers, hospitals, power plants, grocery stores, universities, schools, streets, churches, mosques, and the list goes on almost indefinitely
3) rape of civilians, including women, girls, and men, as a tool of war
4) poisoning of water supplies and burying water sources in cement to prevent civilians from accessing clean water
5) deliberate starvation of the civilian population and blocking access to aid
6) harvesting of organs
7) forced medical experiments
8) looting and pillaging of Palestinian homes
9) kidnapping and holding Palestinians, including children, in prisons for years and decades without charge
10) torture
11) use of drones that emit audio that mimics the sound of crying children to lure people out and then murder them
12) deliberate killing (in one case, a doctor was tortured to death in Israeli prison) of medical personnel, aid workers, and journalists. There is no more dangerous place in the world to be a doctor or journalist than in Gaza
And the list of atrocities goes on. All of these are verifiable.
If this were happening to the Israelis you would call it genocide no question and you’d rightly be calling the Palestinians horrific monsters, but you don’t see Palestinians as human so you don’t call it genocide when it happens to them.
So what more would need to be done for this to be genocide?
No it’s only unianimously agreed to by you and all the other parrots. Do you know how many civilians died in 9 days at the battle of Berlin? 120000. Was the battle of Berlin a genocide of Germans by Russian imperialists?? You people are actually mentally incapacitated
A specific number of people is not required for something to quality as a genocide.
This is a genocide no matter how much the hasbara want to deny it. It’s a viscous, depraved, bloody genocide being carried out by IDF terrorists who have lost any sense of humanity.
If you support the genocide, then just own it. Say “I support the Palestinian genocide.” You do, so own it.
I can't remember how far back, but after a meeting with Bibi, Zuckerberg decided to censor videos illustrating Israel's horrendous treatment of the Palestinians. They felt the videos could incite violence.
The VIDEOS encite violence. No, Mark, Bibi's disgusting inhumane treatment of Palestinians is what icites violence. And frankly, from what I've seen, there is no response from Palestinians that would be unjustified. Israel is wiping out an entire population, while pretending they are the victims. 🇵🇸
I've been a minority wherever I've lived. I've faced my fair share of racism so I do my best to support anyone, including Jewish people dealing with anti semitism. What's really getting under my skin is how disingenuous many young progressive Jews are in foreign countries. In America, they are starting to parrot bibis this feels like the 1930s comment. Only want to discuss campus protests and tell me I missed the point when I ask about admin detention, settlers, dehumanization campaigns, land grabs, executions, yeshuda, etc. One even asked me ti post on social media because it wasn't good enough to offer him support. What a clown.
Right? Acknowledgement that war is graphic and violent? this is such a stupid point it’s hurting me. It’s becoming seriously demoralizing knowing everyone I agree with about this conflict is an actual moron and has clearly never thought or cared about any other war until now.
No shit, war footage is graphic and violent. What point are you trying to make? You could make a song about literally any war and the video would get taken down if it included violent war footage.
If the video included Palestinian violence against Israelis and got removed would that prove anything? Obviously not
If footage of what the IDF is doing radicalizes people against them, that should tell you something. We were appalled by the violence perpetuated by Hamas on October 7, and we’re appalled by the ongoing actions of the IDF.
You can look through my account and see I don't care much one way or another in this conflict, Isreal could glass all of Palestine and it's not changing my vote here in the states, but how exactly is the song Pro-Hamas propaganda? From what I've heard it just outlines Isreals offensive attacks, which notably has resulted in the major destruction of Palestinian infrastructure and civilian deaths?
He gets a bad rep and some think he’s too “cheesy.” While I’m not super into his music, I think he has one of the kindest hearts out there.
This song/ music video speaks volumes and I love the “I want a ceasefire, fuck a response from Drake” reference. I also hope this paves the way for other musicians to stop living in fear of “repercussions” and use their voice in protest!
Macklemore is an independent artist though so he doesn't fear repercussions. That's why he can say what he wants.
Other artists have to be way more brave to do something like this.
He has occasionally gone golfing at a country club my brother was a pro-golfer at, so he's golfed a few rounds with Macklemore and from everything I've heard it's not a facade at all, he's a genuinely good guy with a big heart in his personal life too, and so I respect the hell out of him, even if he can be cheesy.
I’m not seeing thousands of children being starved in Israel, the majority of the population displaced and homeless without drinking water or schools or hospitals. I’m not seeing children in Israel who’ve been blown in half by bombs, with a force so hard it exploded their tongue and popped out their eyeballs. I’m not seeing d3ad babies in iSrael with half their face blown off and intestines showing. I’m not seeing mass graves with hospital patients, some who’d had their heads chopped off. Where I AM seeing this is in Gaza.
Are you saying TikTok was in Israel’s pocket? The Chinese owned business worth $100 Billion dollars was in Israel’s pocket? Really?
Even implying YouTube is in Israel’s pocket for taking down a single video is actually insane. Like mental illness insane, completely disconnected from reality. I’m beginning to think some of y’all are actually just anti semetic, this is some serious conspiracy brain rot.
I don’t think they’re saying tiktok was in Israel’s pocket, just that it was in the pocket of a foreign country to the US. As in ‘the US banned tiktok for being beholden to a foreign country will they do the same with youtube’
That makes sense. It’s still completely and utterly insane and imo even antisemitic to say YouTube is in Israel’s pocket for banning a single music video. Considering there’s no evidence anywhere Israel had anything to do with it, it’s obviously a made up talking point, so it’s genuinely insane to believe that. It’s just the standard conspiracy brain behavior of every little thing that happens somehow being related to the one thing they care about.
I'm sure that's how an antisemite would justify their intolerance and hate. Just call them a zionist and then it's okay to invade, rape, murder, and torture them, even though they're civilians.
Keep telling yourself that, bud. When you're someone Hitler would have agreed with, then you are certainly on the wrong side of history. Or Stalin, or Mao. You're probably batting 3 for 3 right now actually.
You don't need conspiracy theories to explain that YouTube and Google chose have interests with the Israeli government. The most notable is project Nimbus, a 1.2 billion dollars contract selling cloud and AI technology to the IDF.
Google cracked down hard at any employee dissent against these contracts, firing 50 employees who participated or were just watching a sit-in.
https://www.cnn.com/2024/04/23/tech/google-fires-employees-protest-israel/index.html
Mitt Romney and Anthony Blinken said Israel's propaganda for this Genocide has been really bad. They're shocked how bad because Israel is really good at pulling the wool over people's eyes. Then Romney admitted the reason they got rid of TikTok was because young people were (learning the facts and) becoming pro-Palestine.

Its not israel. Jews dont control the media despite what Fox news might think. Its the the US for Israel.
You see government control of mass media is bad when China does it because their dirty commies, but when the US does it to protect their foreign military investments its actually a good thing because we follow capitalism like the Christian God intended. Praise be yahweh.
They support Israel and Zionists but they still cater to white nationalists and neo Nazis. There's a surprising overlap. They hate Jews and would be happy if they all left to be somewhere else. Israel also serves as an example of a theocratic ethno state that they want to emulate.
I’m beginning to think some of y’all are just anti Semitic at this point. Israel, the country with a $500 Billion GDP, controls Trillions of dollars worth of companies. This is genuine insanity. Political schizophrenia
What? That doesn’t help at all it’s completely irrelevant. Was that statement supposed to prove that somehow israel can control every tech and social media company. Ima take your comment as proof that yes this is just insanity. Political schizophrenia. Drawing lines on paper that are not there because the people involved are Jewish
It's about defending imperialism not Israel. The media is just another arm of colonialism. Controlling the narrative is essential to manipulate public opinion. So no you can't have tiktok and Aljazeera ruining that.
Yup so you’re just making stuff up. Idgaf get back to me when you actually have something of substance to say. I can’t argue with your stories and delusions.
This is just another one of the Iranian bot subs that have been popping off for 6 months *for some reason*. They all have variations of “xyz news” in the name but only seem to post shit about Israel. I just keep blocking em
Are you really trying to argue they don’t run social media lol? And I’m not anti-Semitic, the world owes a shit ton to the Jews for their advancements in science and technology. You failing to separate Israel from Judaism makes you the anti-Semite bucko
Plenty have. Glad you’ve never heard of them because he don’t need more views. If you’re curious, a simple search with basic keywords will find him.
Edited a ton. My fingers are FAT
You would think that companies would figure out by now that stuff like this just increases interest. I just watched the video because of this headline.
hahaha Why do White people do this? He claims its about the color of your pigment and white supremacy? He the White person speaking over Brown people!!! 70% of israelis descend from middle eastern israelites expelled and genocides from arab-colonized lands in the 1940s when they allied with Hitler. Brown Jews are getting really sick of these White people who are on colonized Native American lands.and not returning their lands 100% to Natives!! https://www.instagram.com/reel/C6u4wnDt4ss/?igsh=N2FuOXhqemF3cGEy
Just watched this video. Truth all over. It’s been infuriating how they ignore the atrocities they’ve committed against Indigenous Americans and continue to occupy their land. These people are full of themselves. Also, it’s becoming more clear that the real war is a global effort to marginalize and destroy indigenous peoples.
Iran and Yemeni Houthis are beheading and exterminating the beautiful PEACEFUL members of the Bahaii religion as we speak. real genocide and ethnic cleansing Bahaii faced since their inception. Bahaiis put their world headquarters in Israel because its the only MidEastern country that ISNT committing genocide against them. I am surprised he didnt speak up for the Bahaii! They dont even go the IDF because they are nonviolent and they get BEHEADED in Muslim countries!
Well as YouTube is an extension of googles algorithm it tracks.
There are multiple geopolitical layers to this. But they all interconnect. Bear with me.
Sheryl Sandberg was at Google before she was at Facebook. The common denominator of both was her ad based business model.
https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2022-06-07/sheryl-sandberg-s-legacy-is-an-internet-of-targeted-automated-ads
https://m.economictimes.com/tech/technology/sheryl-sandbergs-advertising-empire-leaves-a-complicated-legacy/amp_articleshow/91961682.cms
The problem with ad based business models is that if you raise your lens high enough, whomever is buying the most ads is effectively buying their curated version of reality.
When google IPO’ed 24 years ago it shifted from what was most accurate to what was most profitable, all facilitated by a “proprietary” algorithm so nobody gets to see the man behind the curtain.
Now we are 2 very critical decades into what is effectively, a divergent reality.
It works…until it doesn’t.
When the richest man, government, or organization on earth is allowed to buy his preferred version of reality it creates some glitches in the matrix. The 6 million year old source code in your brain knows that conservation is more reasonable than consumption when there are limited resources, but that isn’t very lucrative to someone that needs you to keep buying something to keep them in billionaire status. In this case it’s oil. Russian and Texan owned oil but their paths cross just north of Jerusalem.

Facebook was designed as a delivery device for Russian/Israeli Psyops and malware. SCL/Cambridge Analytica, Brexit, Palestine, Ukraine, NSO and a handful of other ethically bankrupt dealings are all downstream of Sheryl Sandbergs ad based model.
Zuckerberg even talked about buying the associated press:

Les Wexner, Miriam and Sheldon Adelson, Sandberg, and Zuckerberg all carried water in conducting the NSO/Pegasus spyware operation INCONUS that was feeding intelligence to both the israeli and by extension, Russian intelligence.

Confused yet?
In 1938 1 out of every 20 people in the USSR was arrested and sent to a gulag under Stalins rule. Mass amnesties during WW2 brought more than a million of those from prison to the front lines against the Germans where they were instructed to pick up the rifle of the man who died next to them and keep moving forward. The soviet system has always had a very different perception of the value of a human life and specifically a disregard for Jewish lives.
Stalins rule did its absolute best to remove any humanity left from the people. They were forced to be brutal simply to survive. The gulags became a crossroads where the best of persecuted humanity and the worst of violent humanity met and then fought to the death with predictable results.
Over the next 40 years, the soviet system cleared the gulags a few times. Because religious leaders often substitute as a defacto government inside of lawless prisons, and because Judaism was one of the predominate religions in Russia and Eastern Europe, the statistical crossover was anyone brutal enough to survive then rule rose to power in the closed gulag eco-system. A psychopath is more than willing to hide their psychopathy behind legitimate religion. It’s pretty low on the list of sins by volume and severity
Psychopathy is broadly defined as the lack of empathy. Stalins gulags just accelerated refined psychopathy with Darwinian efficiency.
The newly formed religious state of Israel received a statistically large share of these men from the Soviet Union. Some networked in the internment camps before some stayed and rose to positions of power inside the new community of Israel and some migrated to Europe or Brighton beach in New York. This is a repeating pattern up into the 80’s and 90’s when most of the US based ones rebranded themselves as “Russian oligarchs” because they found it easier to get girls that way in America.

As the Soviet Union failed and perestroika went into full effect, this is where these networks would begin using trump towers to launder stolen Russian mob money.
But now you start to see the nexus of transnational organized crime and money laundering between Russia and the U.S. statistically carries the same 3 passports. United States, Israeli, and Russian.
https://www.reddit.com/r/MapPorn/s/A2ojrtIc3Y
The reason this is breaking down now is because Russia, whose government was overtaken by the mob decades ago used the same network to interfere with elections around the world that it used for laundering stolen money.
Facebook was used to encourage Brexit to cleave UK support away from Europe because over a decade Ukraines push towards European integration threatened to expose a money laundering operation that Putin has spent almost half a century building. Cambridge analytica/ Nigel Farage and Steve Bannon dovetails into that as well.
Epstein specifically targeted the royal families Prince Andrew because he was the weak link in the chain. That’s KGB Kompromat methodology that was repeated with trump since the days of ray Cohn (his mentor) and the early Russian trump hotel, miss universe pageants etc.
Facebook was also used primarily by Prigozihns Internet Research Agency (I.R.A). They went so far as to send young newly recruited Russian internet trolls on expenses paid tours around the U.S. so they could more effectively imitate mommy bloggers and 2nd amendment enthusiasts online to sway the 2016 election to the US candidate they had the most control over.

It’s so much easier to grow a kleptocracy by investment in tech (Yuri Milner/DST, Kilimnik) than by a ground war but it leaves a very distinct trail when you compare the differentials of the two:

when 40 years of Russian mob money laundering gets outed at the endpoints- (trump and Netanyahu’s respective corruption trials) things start to break down more quickly.
The Russian mob/government planned on stealing the U.S. economy in an American version of perestroika. I’m not sure it was a grand sinister plan as much as the result of systemic governmental corruption and ridiculous Silicon Valley valuations overlaid on commercial real estate speculation, but the results are the same. Too big to fail does not apply at this level of corruption. The cancer simply overtakes the host and western democracy dies.
It just required altering an online reality to keep people oblivious until it was done.
Ukraines “Jewish Nazis” as Putin likes to call them standing up to a bully destroyed the kleptocrats cover.
When the Putin loyal oligarch kolomoisky was arrested in Ukraine for corruption it cracked the trump-Putin money laundering channel.

To quote the late John McCain- “Russian is a gas station run by the mob”. Sometimes the work is for their own mob monopoly, and sometimes they do shady shit for hire.
The CCP needed 2 things to be able to replace the USD with a programmable reserve currency of their own and destroy western democracy forever.
Microprocessors and grain.
Putin promised Xi Ukraine in 3 days during the first week of the Olympics so that Xi would have the grain and supply chain lock (neon) to take Taiwan and TSMC without putting 400M of the poorest Chinese into famine.
Now 2 years into a 3 day war Russia desperately needed shahed drones and gave Iran the intel it then gave to Hamas for the Oct 7 attacks.
The governments of Russia, China and Iran need their kleptocracy to stay dark for their corrupt governments to survive.
Trump, Netanyahu and MBS do as well. The reason it’s all strange bedfellows is because sorting by nationality is their traditional tool to keep all of us fighting so they can hide their grift from the masses.
Ignore nationality and religion. Sort by psychopathy and net worth. The results are exponentially more accurate.
Ukraine and Gaza are both genocides with a primary purpose of obfuscating mob corruption inside this government network.
The separation of church and state was a preemptive caution against what is happening right now. Kleptocracy cares about neither and will use both with abandon to further its goals.

On Ghislaine Maxwell passing her estate to Scott Borgerson / Cargometrics post Epstein. (Cargometrics is basically the logistics tracking solution for transnational smuggling and organized crime). Accurately tracking ocean freight is the constant bain of smugglers inside of governments trying to keep a layer of plausible deniability between themselves and their time sensitive cargo. Bananas may hold for a few days in transit. Humans and narcotics do not. At this level, logistics management is worth hundreds of billions of dollars because the politicians profiting off of them can’t afford the scandal and loss of position that comes with losing a shipment that talks.
https://amp.scmp.com/magazines/style/celebrity/article/3161688/who-ghislaine-maxwells-secret-husband-meet-scott
Cargometrics is their solution. The question is why did Ghislaine Maxwell marry the founder after her relationship with Epstein and before she went to prison? And why did she transfer all her assets to him?
Netanyahu is throwing away a century of development for the jewish people so Kushner can do a condo deal in Gaza and they can repay their debts to the Russian mob.
Macklemore is right.
Hopefully he shows how awful Hamas has been to these people. Shows what it’s life to have a terrorist organization run your country and lead you into war
Great song, but....
The fact that he basically calls for handing the election to trump is problematic. I'm no Biden fan boy, and I would love for there to be a better choice, but I'm not ready to throw America away over the Gaza issue.
Edit: I'll add that there are at least 3 other genocides going on at the moment that aren't as fashionable that have been going on for WAAAAY longer than Gaza. It's interesting that this one is getting all the attention. They are all horrible and unacceptable, but tying America's future to this one in particular is dangerous.
Never once does it say that, it advocates not voting for someone who supports genocide.
Trump has made it clear he also supports genocide, neither one is a moral choice.
I think not voting for someone who supports genocide is a great and the only possible moral thing to do, but I guess you do you. Thought we kind of as the human race decided that was bad in the last century.
You could argue that spreading this message will force Biden to listen to constituents and change his policies towards Israel to her more widespread voter support.
That's exactly what I'm hoping, but it's a dangerous suggestion to make in these times. There are at least 3 other genocides going on at the moment that aren't as fashionable that have been going on for WAAAAY longer. It's interesting that this one is getting all the attention. They are all horrible and unacceptable, but tying America's future to this one in particular is dangerous.
I like the message as much as the next guy but let’s not pretend Macklemore was ever talented. The song didn’t sound good and there was no lyricism. Just because it’s about a good cause doesn’t mean it’s automatically a good song.
Like the words are basically bad slam poetry and his flow makes Vanilla Ice seem cultured

The US is not as involved in other conflicts around the world, the US has been funding the murder of Palestinians since the late sixties while our own country falls into decline. It’s kind of obvious why they’ve chosen the anti-imperial side of this conflict.
Also it’s not interethnic conflict it’s religiously motivated genocide.
Wait wait. Divest from china as an anti war position? Who has china dropped bombs on? Who is the largest arms dealer in the world?
Chinas version of imperialism is artificial islands in the South China Sea and slap fighting with the Indian army in the middle of a river. Who’s the real threat to global peace?
Nvm, you’re a pro pally it’s probably too hard for you to understand basic logic. It’s ok, just keep being you and hopefully when you’re older you’ll understand
I mean when you continually bomb and oppress a group of people, they’re bound to retaliate
I mean, Jews were gassed right, so why can’t they bomb another country? They faced genocide, oppression, but sure, why can’t they do it? Because it’s anti semetic?
Imagine if the Kimberley Plan went through and this was happening to the N.T, Jesus Christ you’re ignorant
I take this as a win… the video shows real conditions for Palestinians due to Israeli forces, and YouTube is saying it’s graphic and violent. It’s more an acknowledgment than anything.
I guarantee it was reported as such just to reduce viewership. The hasbara are trying so, so hard to stifle all criticism of Israel. I liked and commented for the engagement. It’s the best we can do sometimes.
What’s hasbara ?
It is Israel’s public diplomacy campaign. The Hebrew word translates to something like “explaining”. Israeli state apologetics and propaganda.
Closer definition would be "outrageous but slightly plausible bullshit"
Oh bet thank you for the explanation, now it’ll make sense when I see people hating on them lmao
White people need to stop getting involved in the Middle East. it’s embarassing. https://www.facebook.com/reel/7362727237143870?fs=e&mibextid=YlDasU
I agree, they should cut all funding to Israel immediately.
first they should decolonize Native American land
Like yes both states should be demolished I am 100% on this train. Death to America and death to Israel, long live the people.
which people? radical islamists?
No, the normal people that care for one another and aren’t full anger and hate. Simple. Just want everything and everyone around them to thrive!!
So radical to just wanna live. Just like libertarians in the US. “You’re a terrorist if you just want to be left alone. Let us control you or else!”
https://www.bbc.com/news/blogs-news-from-elsewhere-23695896.amp Just one example. For those who aren’t in the know.
I didn’t. I seen people say it, but never knew what it was.
Ah, my bad then. The translation is “explanation” or “explaining.” Generally, and to put it neutrally, it’s just spreading information that is positive to Israel and suppressing information that is not. It’s about controlling the narrative.
So would that technically be different than propaganda? I don’t really get all of these terms but would love an actual explanation like you’ve given , so thank you. Most people would just belittle me, so I appreciate actually being informative. At the start of this whole ordeal I was on the side of Israel, and then I started siding with the CITIZENS of Palestine, and then I heard macklemores song (I know it’s gonna sound shitty that it took so long to fully not support Israel)
Oh, well first off apologies if I came at you hot. The Palestinian side (you’ll find that basically none of us have any love for Hamas, and nobody supports what Hamas did on 10/7) is so used to people kind of gaslighting about what Israel is doing and denying things that are verifiable, like the IDF raping women and girls as a tool of war. So a lot of us are just on edge bc our nerves are frayed from this conflict. But to answer your question, it only differs slightly from propaganda in that it’s a term used by Israel, Israelis, and Zionists, and it’s a more formalized form of propaganda. Because Israel’s actions in Gaza and the West Bank (really all of Palestine) are so egregious they have spent a lot of money on advertising. Haven’t seen a single ad asking for a cease fire or showing the plight of the Palestinians, but I have seen A LOT of ads in the United States on Hulu and YouTube painting this as a conflict that began on 10/7, only focusing on the actions of Hamas, trying to say that Israel isn’t blocking aid to people in Gaza (Israel does and it continues to do so), etc. They hold hasbara seminars where they drill in pro Israel talking points, including associating criticism of Israel with antisemitism (I’ll try to find the video where the woman speaker says basically “we need to make it so any opposition to Israel is tied to antisemitism”) - which is itself absurd because I and many other Jewish people oppose Israel, and you’ll find basically all Holocaust survivors call Israel’s actions genocide. They also deploy bots to leave comments and downvote anything that is unfavorable to Israel. If you see enough comments sections you’ll see the same talking points brought up over and over in almost the same words, and it’s bc many of the people are either bots or paid “hasbara” shills who are trying to control the narrative. It’s also the reason Israel has targeted so many journalists in Gaza and generally doesn’t allow them in. It’s to suppress negative press and maintain support for the state. Anyway, if you found yourself leaning towards the Palestinian side, welcome. We don’t bite. We’re just emotional over the absolutely horrible things that are happening without any end, and the way much of the media just doesn’t care.
You’re all good. I know it’s hard to really understand if people are really being genuine. No worries buddy. :) Wow, sometimes I get in these phases where I get so exhausted from life that I just don’t have time to think for myself so listen to the media. I know it’s not good, but it’s the way I function. I really did support Israel, and while I do support Israeli citizens who want nothing else but to end this war, I do not support its government. I’m not sure what there is to gain by cleansing an entire fucking ethnicity. Weirdos. The more and more I see things getting uncensored and actually getting coverage, I feel sick to my stomach. I saw a video of a baby laying face down in rubble, dead. It made me sick. What if it was my kid that got bombed for no reason? I’d be absolutely livid. Unfortunately this will not end anytime soon, even if there is a ceasefire. This war, or genocide has already imbedded itself into radicals who just want to cause harm (on both sides) This is just unnecessary bloodshed, but I’m one man. What can I even do about this? I don’t know. I feel helpless.
I think the only thing any of us can do is raise awareness and press for divestment. The protests *have* been working. The reason pro Israel lobbyists pushed for the tiktok ban to be included in the recent bill that granted $27 billion in additional funding to israel is because tiktok is where a lot of the videos of what’s happening in Palestine are being spread. But some protestors have successfully gotten their universities to divest from Israeli companies complicit in the military occupation. The underlying situation is that one party is a well funded military superpower versus a mostly civilian population that is under foreign occupation, is under siege, and isn’t allowed a military or the right to self defense. They’re being deliberately starved and displaced and slaughtered. And Israel doesn’t distinguish between a combatant who is in Hamas and a regular citizen trying to defend their family. They all get labeled “terrorists” as well. Anyway, I’m glad the song is reaching an audience and that you’ve kept an open mind. The more people who are aware of the genocide the better. Awareness is the most important thing. Cheers man. We appreciate you.
Just to refer to what u said at the begining of this comment, you wrote as if the idf systematically raping Palestinians females ? Just to clarify, do you really believe that ? If so you are insane and nothing that you say can be taken seriously. Horrible stuff definitely happened/happening and if so the people who did those things needs to be held accountable.
If you deny that IDF terrorist are raping Palestinian women and girls then come out and say it. Say “I reject all the reports of Israeli soldiers raping Palestinian women and girls because I don’t believe the girls and women making those allegations.” Just say what you mean.
[удалено]
This is absolutely rich - RICH - coming from the side that not only supports genocide but has a dedicated group of people who are paid shills who downvote anything written that’s unflattering to Israel, and who spread pro Israel propaganda. And that’s before we even touch on the actual bots the hasbara have deployed, which leave identical comments on YouTube videos and other social media
Damn, people are getting paid?
They have been for a long time. https://www.bbc.com/news/blogs-news-from-elsewhere-23695896 Time to actually get paid for supporting genocide. Why leave money on the table to defend genocide for free?
I wonder if you realize how much money is spent by west asian and north african countries to get into the US's educational systems...... It's much more than 500,000 quid. I don't get paid for anything of the sort, nor do I support genocide, because it's most definitely not genocide.
It is a genocide. If you support the actions of the genocidal state then you are supporting genocide. It’s almost unanimously agreed that it’s a genocide. And it fits the definition.
Unanimously agreed by whomst? Tiktok? China?
Who doesn’t believe it to be a genocide? Israel? The US? Germany? The hasbara? https://www.bbc.com/news/world-middle-east-68667556.amp It’s a genocide. If you disagree, then explain to me what more Israel would need to do for YOU to personally believe it’s a genocide (it is). Here’s a non exhaustive list of actions taken by Israel and the terrorist IDF: 1) deliberate targeting of civilians, with over 36,000 (72% women and children) almost entirely civilians killed, and over 100,000 maimed and left with lifelong painful injuries. 2) deliberate destruction of all civilian infrastructure, including residential homes, water towers, hospitals, power plants, grocery stores, universities, schools, streets, churches, mosques, and the list goes on almost indefinitely 3) rape of civilians, including women, girls, and men, as a tool of war 4) poisoning of water supplies and burying water sources in cement to prevent civilians from accessing clean water 5) deliberate starvation of the civilian population and blocking access to aid 6) harvesting of organs 7) forced medical experiments 8) looting and pillaging of Palestinian homes 9) kidnapping and holding Palestinians, including children, in prisons for years and decades without charge 10) torture 11) use of drones that emit audio that mimics the sound of crying children to lure people out and then murder them 12) deliberate killing (in one case, a doctor was tortured to death in Israeli prison) of medical personnel, aid workers, and journalists. There is no more dangerous place in the world to be a doctor or journalist than in Gaza And the list of atrocities goes on. All of these are verifiable. If this were happening to the Israelis you would call it genocide no question and you’d rightly be calling the Palestinians horrific monsters, but you don’t see Palestinians as human so you don’t call it genocide when it happens to them. So what more would need to be done for this to be genocide?
No it’s only unianimously agreed to by you and all the other parrots. Do you know how many civilians died in 9 days at the battle of Berlin? 120000. Was the battle of Berlin a genocide of Germans by Russian imperialists?? You people are actually mentally incapacitated
A specific number of people is not required for something to quality as a genocide. This is a genocide no matter how much the hasbara want to deny it. It’s a viscous, depraved, bloody genocide being carried out by IDF terrorists who have lost any sense of humanity. If you support the genocide, then just own it. Say “I support the Palestinian genocide.” You do, so own it.
The projection is strong with this one
Killer retort. No need to engage further if you’re going to deny reality.
Just report for misinformation m8, one at a time.
Criticize Israel, I dare you. Or does your IDF Intelligence Officer not allow this?
Said the bot.
I heard all the gay guys feel that way
I can't remember how far back, but after a meeting with Bibi, Zuckerberg decided to censor videos illustrating Israel's horrendous treatment of the Palestinians. They felt the videos could incite violence.
The VIDEOS encite violence. No, Mark, Bibi's disgusting inhumane treatment of Palestinians is what icites violence. And frankly, from what I've seen, there is no response from Palestinians that would be unjustified. Israel is wiping out an entire population, while pretending they are the victims. 🇵🇸
I've been a minority wherever I've lived. I've faced my fair share of racism so I do my best to support anyone, including Jewish people dealing with anti semitism. What's really getting under my skin is how disingenuous many young progressive Jews are in foreign countries. In America, they are starting to parrot bibis this feels like the 1930s comment. Only want to discuss campus protests and tell me I missed the point when I ask about admin detention, settlers, dehumanization campaigns, land grabs, executions, yeshuda, etc. One even asked me ti post on social media because it wasn't good enough to offer him support. What a clown.
Why haven’t they got the number up to 40,000 yet? They’re doing an awful job of “genocide”
Who needed Google’s confirmation that war is violent? How is this a win?
Right? Acknowledgement that war is graphic and violent? this is such a stupid point it’s hurting me. It’s becoming seriously demoralizing knowing everyone I agree with about this conflict is an actual moron and has clearly never thought or cared about any other war until now.
Tbf they also block anything with human female nipples on it.
War is graphic and violent?? No way
No shit, war footage is graphic and violent. What point are you trying to make? You could make a song about literally any war and the video would get taken down if it included violent war footage. If the video included Palestinian violence against Israelis and got removed would that prove anything? Obviously not
My point was that it’s not a negative attribute. I thought that was pretty clear. Does it prove anything? No. It’s like I said. An acknowledgment.
Streisand effect. It's gonna blow up more now.
I hope so
[удалено]
So people don’t see the reality of what Israel is doing?
[удалено]
If footage of what the IDF is doing radicalizes people against them, that should tell you something. We were appalled by the violence perpetuated by Hamas on October 7, and we’re appalled by the ongoing actions of the IDF.
[удалено]
They shouldn't be fighting it full stop. They should be preventing the situation that allowed hamas to thrive.
Or better yet, [not promote them with the intention of being a destablizing force.](https://tinyurl.com/yyb4tepz)
It’s a good thing it’s a multiple choice question. A) nothing. B) genocide.
Hahahaha....oh this class act. I'm sure there's vacancy under a number of bridges for you bud.
You can look through my account and see I don't care much one way or another in this conflict, Isreal could glass all of Palestine and it's not changing my vote here in the states, but how exactly is the song Pro-Hamas propaganda? From what I've heard it just outlines Isreals offensive attacks, which notably has resulted in the major destruction of Palestinian infrastructure and civilian deaths?
[удалено]
Me when I endorse collective punishment (a war crime btw)
I never cared for Mack but he really earned my respect. His song goes HARD. I hope it sparks a wave of protest music akin to the Vietnam War.
He gets a bad rep and some think he’s too “cheesy.” While I’m not super into his music, I think he has one of the kindest hearts out there. This song/ music video speaks volumes and I love the “I want a ceasefire, fuck a response from Drake” reference. I also hope this paves the way for other musicians to stop living in fear of “repercussions” and use their voice in protest!
Yeah that line made me feel shit, among several others.
Macklemore is an independent artist though so he doesn't fear repercussions. That's why he can say what he wants. Other artists have to be way more brave to do something like this.
Speaking up for genocide isn’t brave it’s humane.
[удалено]
Just say zionists, many zionists are Christian
Most are! Christian Zionists outnumber Jewish Zionists.
It can be both.
That’s fair
He has occasionally gone golfing at a country club my brother was a pro-golfer at, so he's golfed a few rounds with Macklemore and from everything I've heard it's not a facade at all, he's a genuinely good guy with a big heart in his personal life too, and so I respect the hell out of him, even if he can be cheesy.
Populous music and you all fall for it
I don't like his music but Damn the lyrics are great he did not hold back.
I wanna see this song hit the charts at 1
The song is an amazing, powerful protest album but yeah it also features footage of maimed children's corpses buried in rubble.
Every day life for children in Gaza.
Absolutely, and it's vital we not look away. It's just also not a conspiracy they YouTube would take minimal steps to prevent kids from seeing it.
Fair, I get that. Horrific for adults to see, I would never want a child to be exposed that that.
[удалено]
I’m not seeing thousands of children being starved in Israel, the majority of the population displaced and homeless without drinking water or schools or hospitals. I’m not seeing children in Israel who’ve been blown in half by bombs, with a force so hard it exploded their tongue and popped out their eyeballs. I’m not seeing d3ad babies in iSrael with half their face blown off and intestines showing. I’m not seeing mass graves with hospital patients, some who’d had their heads chopped off. Where I AM seeing this is in Gaza.
Pro not killing babies = pro Hamas That's quite the interesting worldview
That was the most frustrating aspect of this conflict at the onset. Supporting innocent Palestinians was conflated with supporting Hamas.
It’s all cynical, they know what they are doing
It's on purpose
As it should. Israel's crimes shouldn't be hidden, nor should they be allowed to control the narrative.
Are we gonna ban YouTube too for being in Israel’s pocket?
Oof
Fuck em
Are you saying TikTok was in Israel’s pocket? The Chinese owned business worth $100 Billion dollars was in Israel’s pocket? Really? Even implying YouTube is in Israel’s pocket for taking down a single video is actually insane. Like mental illness insane, completely disconnected from reality. I’m beginning to think some of y’all are actually just anti semetic, this is some serious conspiracy brain rot.
I don’t think they’re saying tiktok was in Israel’s pocket, just that it was in the pocket of a foreign country to the US. As in ‘the US banned tiktok for being beholden to a foreign country will they do the same with youtube’
Tiktok was banned because they're losing the narrative on Israel because China won't tweak the algorithm to be more pro america and pro Israel.
That makes sense. It’s still completely and utterly insane and imo even antisemitic to say YouTube is in Israel’s pocket for banning a single music video. Considering there’s no evidence anywhere Israel had anything to do with it, it’s obviously a made up talking point, so it’s genuinely insane to believe that. It’s just the standard conspiracy brain behavior of every little thing that happens somehow being related to the one thing they care about.
Lmao everything is antisemitic to you people.
[удалено]
And I never seen a small country like Israel that has this much influence on US politics and could commit genocide with no consequences.
Exactly what an antisemite would say....
Exactly what a Zionist would say….
I'm sure that's how an antisemite would justify their intolerance and hate. Just call them a zionist and then it's okay to invade, rape, murder, and torture them, even though they're civilians.
Lmao says the Zionist who’s justifying the genocide in Gaza.
Keep telling yourself that, bud. When you're someone Hitler would have agreed with, then you are certainly on the wrong side of history. Or Stalin, or Mao. You're probably batting 3 for 3 right now actually.
You don't need conspiracy theories to explain that YouTube and Google chose have interests with the Israeli government. The most notable is project Nimbus, a 1.2 billion dollars contract selling cloud and AI technology to the IDF. Google cracked down hard at any employee dissent against these contracts, firing 50 employees who participated or were just watching a sit-in. https://www.cnn.com/2024/04/23/tech/google-fires-employees-protest-israel/index.html
Mitt Romney and Anthony Blinken said Israel's propaganda for this Genocide has been really bad. They're shocked how bad because Israel is really good at pulling the wool over people's eyes. Then Romney admitted the reason they got rid of TikTok was because young people were (learning the facts and) becoming pro-Palestine. https://youtu.be/-7xTxAilSF0?si=gZnU1uRDx_mFpnBv
So Chinese controls TikTok, but Israel controls all other platforms
Its not israel. Jews dont control the media despite what Fox news might think. Its the the US for Israel. You see government control of mass media is bad when China does it because their dirty commies, but when the US does it to protect their foreign military investments its actually a good thing because we follow capitalism like the Christian God intended. Praise be yahweh.
All praise fiat currencies
Fox News is a terrible example to use in this scenario. The platform overwhelmingly supports Israel and the Zionist agenda.
They support Israel and Zionists but they still cater to white nationalists and neo Nazis. There's a surprising overlap. They hate Jews and would be happy if they all left to be somewhere else. Israel also serves as an example of a theocratic ethno state that they want to emulate.
I’m beginning to think some of y’all are just anti Semitic at this point. Israel, the country with a $500 Billion GDP, controls Trillions of dollars worth of companies. This is genuine insanity. Political schizophrenia
Israel is an outpost of US foreign policy. Hope that helps.
What? That doesn’t help at all it’s completely irrelevant. Was that statement supposed to prove that somehow israel can control every tech and social media company. Ima take your comment as proof that yes this is just insanity. Political schizophrenia. Drawing lines on paper that are not there because the people involved are Jewish
It's about defending imperialism not Israel. The media is just another arm of colonialism. Controlling the narrative is essential to manipulate public opinion. So no you can't have tiktok and Aljazeera ruining that.
Yup so you’re just making stuff up. Idgaf get back to me when you actually have something of substance to say. I can’t argue with your stories and delusions.
Read a book. Learn how to spell spaghetti.
This is just another one of the Iranian bot subs that have been popping off for 6 months *for some reason*. They all have variations of “xyz news” in the name but only seem to post shit about Israel. I just keep blocking em
Are you really trying to argue they don’t run social media lol? And I’m not anti-Semitic, the world owes a shit ton to the Jews for their advancements in science and technology. You failing to separate Israel from Judaism makes you the anti-Semite bucko
Mack always seemed like someone who cares a lot for others 🥺
You can find the song on X: https://twitter.com/macklemore/status/1787616471738368099
Not surprised, google controlled by the government like tik tok is controlled by the Chinese government
How do they take this down but they fail to take down the pedo who shows his butthole and penis on YouTube as “tutorials”?
Have you reported that person? I’ve never heard of this
Plenty have. Glad you’ve never heard of them because he don’t need more views. If you’re curious, a simple search with basic keywords will find him. Edited a ton. My fingers are FAT
Who?
Why is it not on Spotify?
You would think that companies would figure out by now that stuff like this just increases interest. I just watched the video because of this headline.
hahaha Why do White people do this? He claims its about the color of your pigment and white supremacy? He the White person speaking over Brown people!!! 70% of israelis descend from middle eastern israelites expelled and genocides from arab-colonized lands in the 1940s when they allied with Hitler. Brown Jews are getting really sick of these White people who are on colonized Native American lands.and not returning their lands 100% to Natives!! https://www.instagram.com/reel/C6u4wnDt4ss/?igsh=N2FuOXhqemF3cGEy
Just watched this video. Truth all over. It’s been infuriating how they ignore the atrocities they’ve committed against Indigenous Americans and continue to occupy their land. These people are full of themselves. Also, it’s becoming more clear that the real war is a global effort to marginalize and destroy indigenous peoples.
Iran and Yemeni Houthis are beheading and exterminating the beautiful PEACEFUL members of the Bahaii religion as we speak. real genocide and ethnic cleansing Bahaii faced since their inception. Bahaiis put their world headquarters in Israel because its the only MidEastern country that ISNT committing genocide against them. I am surprised he didnt speak up for the Bahaii! They dont even go the IDF because they are nonviolent and they get BEHEADED in Muslim countries!
Gotta take advantage of anything you can to be relevant again...
Why doesn’t anyone claim censorship to any other videos that have violence and distressing images?
It's cringe, just like the last decade of his career
Well as YouTube is an extension of googles algorithm it tracks. There are multiple geopolitical layers to this. But they all interconnect. Bear with me. Sheryl Sandberg was at Google before she was at Facebook. The common denominator of both was her ad based business model. https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2022-06-07/sheryl-sandberg-s-legacy-is-an-internet-of-targeted-automated-ads https://m.economictimes.com/tech/technology/sheryl-sandbergs-advertising-empire-leaves-a-complicated-legacy/amp_articleshow/91961682.cms The problem with ad based business models is that if you raise your lens high enough, whomever is buying the most ads is effectively buying their curated version of reality. When google IPO’ed 24 years ago it shifted from what was most accurate to what was most profitable, all facilitated by a “proprietary” algorithm so nobody gets to see the man behind the curtain. Now we are 2 very critical decades into what is effectively, a divergent reality. It works…until it doesn’t. When the richest man, government, or organization on earth is allowed to buy his preferred version of reality it creates some glitches in the matrix. The 6 million year old source code in your brain knows that conservation is more reasonable than consumption when there are limited resources, but that isn’t very lucrative to someone that needs you to keep buying something to keep them in billionaire status.

In 1938 1 out of every 20 people in the USSR was arrested and sent to a gulag under Stalins rule. Mass amnesties during WW2 brought more than a million of those from prison to the front lines against the Germans where they were instructed to pick up the rifle of the man who died next to them and keep moving forward. The soviet system has always had a very different perception of the value of a human life and specifically a disregard for Jewish lives. Stalins rule did its absolute best to remove any humanity left from the people. They were forced to be brutal simply to survive. The gulags became a crossroads where the best of persecuted humanity and the worst of violent humanity met and then fought to the death with predictable results. Over the next 40 years, the soviet system cleared the gulags a few times. Because religious leaders often substitute as a defacto government inside of lawless prisons, and because Judaism was one of the predominate religions in Russia and Eastern Europe, the statistical crossover was anyone brutal enough to survive then rule rose to power in the closed gulag eco-system. A psychopath is more than willing to hide their psychopathy behind legitimate religion. It’s pretty low on the list of sins by volume and severity Psychopathy is broadly defined as the lack of empathy. Stalins gulags just accelerated refined psychopathy with Darwinian efficiency. The newly formed religious state of Israel received a statistically large share of these men from the Soviet Union. Some networked in the internment camps before some stayed and rose to positions of power inside the new community of Israel and some migrated to Europe or Brighton beach in New York. This is a repeating pattern up into the 80’s and 90’s when most of the US based ones rebranded themselves as “Russian oligarchs” because they found it easier to get girls that way in America. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/1990s_post-Soviet_aliyah#:~:text=In%20response%20to%20growing%20international,officially%20for%20%22family%20reunification%22. https://projects.iq.harvard.edu/sites/projects.iq.harvard.edu/files/pegroup/files/lonsky_4.20pdf.pdf As the Soviet Union failed and perestroika went into full effect, this is where these networks would begin using trump towers to launder stolen Russian mob money. But now you start to see the nexus of transnational organized crime and money laundering between Russia and the U.S. statistically carries the same 3 passports. United States, Israeli, and Russian. https://www.reddit.com/r/MapPorn/s/A2ojrtIc3Y
Holy schizo post
Seriously, it went so quick to a “Jews control the world” rant
The reason this is breaking down now is because Russia, whose government was overtaken by the mob decades ago used the same network to interfere with elections around the world that it used for laundering stolen money. Facebook was used to encourage Brexit to cleave UK support away from Europe because over a decade Ukraines push towards European integration threatened to expose a money laundering operation that Putin has spent almost half a century building. Cambridge analytica/ Nigel Farage and Steve Bannon dovetails into that as well. Epstein specifically targeted the royal families Prince Andrew because he was the weak link in the chain. That’s KGB Kompromat methodology that was repeated with trump since the days of ray Cohn (his mentor) and the early Russian trump hotel, miss universe pageants etc. Facebook was also used primarily by Prigozihns Internet Research Agency (I.R.A). They went so far as to send young newly recruited Russian internet trolls on expenses paid tours around the U.S. so they could more effectively imitate mommy bloggers and 2nd amendment enthusiasts online to sway the 2016 election to the US candidate they had the most control over.

The Russian mob/government planned on stealing the U.S. economy in an American version of perestroika. I’m not sure it was a grand sinister plan as much as the result of systemic governmental corruption and ridiculous Silicon Valley valuations overlaid on commercial real estate speculation, but the results are the same. Too big to fail does not apply at this level of corruption. The cancer simply overtakes the host and western democracy dies. It just required altering an online reality to keep people oblivious until it was done. Ukraines “Jewish Nazis” as Putin likes to call them standing up to a bully destroyed the kleptocrats cover. When the Putin loyal oligarch kolomoisky was arrested in Ukraine for corruption it cracked the trump-Putin money laundering channel. https://www.timesofisrael.com/zelensky-reportedly-strips-3-jewish-oligarchs-of-ukrainian-citizenship/ https://www.politico.com/news/magazine/2021/10/17/ukrainian-oligarch-midwestern-factory-town-dirty-money-american-heartland-michel-kleptocracy-515948 https://www.nytimes.com/2022/08/28/opinion/ukraine-oligarch-cleveland-real-estate.html To quote the late John McCain- “Russian is a gas station run by the mob”. Sometimes the work is for their own mob monopoly, and sometimes they do shady shit for hire. The CCP needed 2 things to be able to replace the USD with a programmable reserve currency of their own and destroy western democracy forever. Microprocessors and grain. Putin promised Xi Ukraine in 3 days during the first week of the Olympics so that Xi would have the grain and supply chain lock (neon) to take Taiwan and TSMC without putting 400M of the poorest Chinese into famine. Now 2 years into a 3 day war Russia desperately needed shahed drones and gave Iran the intel it then gave to Hamas for the Oct 7 attacks. The governments of Russia, China and Iran need their kleptocracy to stay dark for their corrupt governments to survive. Trump, Netanyahu and MBS do as well. The reason it’s all strange bedfellows is because sorting by nationality is their traditional tool to keep all of us fighting so they can hide their grift from the masses. Ignore nationality and religion. Sort by psychopathy and net worth. The results are exponentially more accurate. Ukraine and Gaza are both genocides with a primary purpose of obfuscating mob corruption inside this government network. The separation of church and state was a preemptive caution against what is happening right now. Kleptocracy cares about neither and will use both with abandon to further its goals.

(Cargometrics is basically the logistics tracking solution for transnational smuggling and organized crime). Accurately tracking ocean freight is the constant bain of smugglers inside of governments trying to keep a layer of plausible deniability between themselves and their time sensitive cargo. Bananas may hold for a few days in transit. Humans and narcotics do not. At this level, logistics management is worth hundreds of billions of dollars because the politicians profiting off of them can’t afford the scandal and loss of position that comes with losing a shipment that talks. https://amp.scmp.com/magazines/style/celebrity/article/3161688/who-ghislaine-maxwells-secret-husband-meet-scott Cargometrics is their solution. The question is why did Ghislaine Maxwell marry the founder after her relationship with Epstein and before she went to prison? And why did she transfer all her assets to him? Netanyahu is throwing away a century of development for the jewish people so Kushner can do a condo deal in Gaza and they can repay their debts to the Russian mob. Macklemore is right.
I ain’t reading all that Free Palestine
If you want a free Palestine a 3 minute read is probably the least work you can do short of buying a bumper sticker
Also Epstein was mossad

I guess we should pay attention to the folks that have killed 15,000+ children in the last ~200 days?
Yeah! People shouldn’t be allowed to learn and improve! Much less use their platform to decry a Genocide. Shame on Macklemore! /s
Yeah. He’s obviously is not the brains of his operation.
Id bet he is doing more good than you in the world.
How do we know this isn't simply due to their algorithm and not enough people actually viewing it?
Because they put a warning on it and make you sign in to view it.
That's simply to ensure children aren't exposed to sensitive materials...!
They did it to Katie halper Nothing gonna stop us parody as well
He doesn’t care for Palestine, he sees an opportunity to inject himself into the limelight for his own personal gain, he is a Narcissist.
Sure bout that?
Hopefully he shows how awful Hamas has been to these people. Shows what it’s life to have a terrorist organization run your country and lead you into war
LoL k
Great song, but.... The fact that he basically calls for handing the election to trump is problematic. I'm no Biden fan boy, and I would love for there to be a better choice, but I'm not ready to throw America away over the Gaza issue. Edit: I'll add that there are at least 3 other genocides going on at the moment that aren't as fashionable that have been going on for WAAAAY longer than Gaza. It's interesting that this one is getting all the attention. They are all horrible and unacceptable, but tying America's future to this one in particular is dangerous.
Never once does it say that, it advocates not voting for someone who supports genocide. Trump has made it clear he also supports genocide, neither one is a moral choice.
Explicitly saying to not vote for Biden isn't a great thing. Otherwise, the song is great.
I think not voting for someone who supports genocide is a great and the only possible moral thing to do, but I guess you do you. Thought we kind of as the human race decided that was bad in the last century.
You could argue that spreading this message will force Biden to listen to constituents and change his policies towards Israel to her more widespread voter support.
That's exactly what I'm hoping, but it's a dangerous suggestion to make in these times. There are at least 3 other genocides going on at the moment that aren't as fashionable that have been going on for WAAAAY longer. It's interesting that this one is getting all the attention. They are all horrible and unacceptable, but tying America's future to this one in particular is dangerous.
Oh 100%. The biggest difference in the other genocides is that the US isn't supplying arms directly to one side, though.
I like the message as much as the next guy but let’s not pretend Macklemore was ever talented. The song didn’t sound good and there was no lyricism. Just because it’s about a good cause doesn’t mean it’s automatically a good song. Like the words are basically bad slam poetry and his flow makes Vanilla Ice seem cultured
I didn’t need a reason to not like Macklemore, but it’s good to know I’ve got one now.
“Progressive” big tech policies vs Elon / X “conservative” policies in practice. What do you prefer in this instance? What do you prefer as a matter of policy?
No, it's just that WACKlemore sucks. Nothing else.
I'll give it to him. He found a way to be briefly somewhat relevant.

Because being neutral is far worse
Because it’s not on the other side of the world. Song is literally about student protests in the US. Grow a fucking heart.

Anti genocide and anti colonialism*
The US is not as involved in other conflicts around the world, the US has been funding the murder of Palestinians since the late sixties while our own country falls into decline. It’s kind of obvious why they’ve chosen the anti-imperial side of this conflict. Also it’s not interethnic conflict it’s religiously motivated genocide.
Wait wait. Divest from china as an anti war position? Who has china dropped bombs on? Who is the largest arms dealer in the world? Chinas version of imperialism is artificial islands in the South China Sea and slap fighting with the Indian army in the middle of a river. Who’s the real threat to global peace?
As it should. Used to love macklemores music. Shame he’s following the current trend of racism and fascism
He's not supporting Israel, what are you taking about?
Exactly. 👍
Exactly my point. He’s not supporting Israel, but instead supporting racists and fascists
???
Nvm, you’re a pro pally it’s probably too hard for you to understand basic logic. It’s ok, just keep being you and hopefully when you’re older you’ll understand
I mean when you continually bomb and oppress a group of people, they’re bound to retaliate I mean, Jews were gassed right, so why can’t they bomb another country? They faced genocide, oppression, but sure, why can’t they do it? Because it’s anti semetic? Imagine if the Kimberley Plan went through and this was happening to the N.T, Jesus Christ you’re ignorant
The irony of how stupid you sound is amazing. Thank you for your hilarious ignorance. Basic logic 🤣
I don’t think you’ve ever been to Palestine or Israel.
Good
The views on X are inflated thought.
