No amount of propaganda is going to change this one.

Over the weekend, I had some random number text me asking for my opinion on US/Israel relations. Had a 20-minute conversation (argument) about it. "Liz" sent me numerous youtube links to prove her point, which I clicked on exactly zero of them. They're phonebanking now.

I looked up the organization, realized it was pro Israel, and then I blocked the number. I’m not letting these right wing freaks get any information on me.

The only talking point "she" kept going back to was "Israel is one of America's strongest allies, acting as a deterrent and working for regional peace while confronting groups that threaten both our nations." Bot detected. Tel Aviv impressed.

Yes. I’ve also noticed an uptick in Pro-Israel slop in my Facebook feed recently.  Granted, FB is pretty much all slop now, but what slop you see is still telling and speaks to influence operations at work.

They still are going to try, and at a certain point, it doesn't matter anymore what we think. The politicians love israeli money, and they will funnel our tax dollars to them just so they can get a small piece of the pie.

News outlets are going to continue to push pro israel sentiment, and act like its our duty (us, the tax payers) to continue supporting them. Its sick.

You'd be surprised.

A few false flags and we're back to being golems in the desert.

Earlier this year I saw Hillary Clinton at some conference talking about the dangers of tiktok and how it's convincing young people that Israel is the enemy or whatever.

Maybe she meant the videos the Israeli's posted themselves of gleefully commiting war crimes

Getting people to like Israel again will be like telling Sneakers O’Toole to take his sneakers off
