I heard national propaganda describe this as an anti-semitic riot. That ol' imperial narrative.

Even if the information is true, the video looks like it was made by a conspiracy nut high on meth trying to claim the road pavement is alive and eating pets and nickles.

So you only believe something if a Tucker Carlson-like talking head is spoonfeeding it to you from a perfectly lit studio?

I guess everything's working as designed, then.

I don't really have much faith in humanity left these days but this sure as fuck isn't helping it.

Yeah, wow....I knew there was heavy media bias towards Israel....but this a bit fucking much

[–] masquenox@lemmy.world 2 points 5 hours ago

I didn't even post it because it's linked to Israel. It just reminded me of how our supposedly "free press" here in South Africa used one little snippet of de-contextualized footage to justify the police perpetrating mass-murder on striking mineworkers here all the way back in 2012.

To me, it just proves how our (allegedly) "respectable" mainstream media will blatantly lie to our faces as soon as the truth doesn't fit the interests of the status quo - and they will do so in a sustained manner.
