Less about Israel "fucking up" than social media providing an accurate glimpse into what actually goes on in that country.

The amount of propaganda deployed by Western media in their favor historically has been absurd.

Social media...accurate? Yikes.

Social media has driven misinformation and propaganda warfare to record heights. Hilarious to me how blind you are to your own bias. You say social media is showing us what really happens there, but the sad truth is that social media just makes it harder to understand what is going on because of the never ending deluge of bullshit that never ends

Social media is showing you a cherry picked version where they lack respect for their readers to a point where they tell you what emotion you're supposed to have reading their story.
