The New York Post have never been a trustworthy publication in the first place, but calling this headline a shameless lie isn’t even a strong enough way to express the new low the American media’s propagandizing has reached, especially in the last few weeks.
To make such an extreme claim up out of thin air is almost unbelievable even by New York Post standards. This is what western media has resorted to in order to keep those with nominally pro-Israeli views invested in this conflict, and we can only expect it to get worse as the diminishing impact of the shock factor continues.
The thread on this is exactly as bloodthirsty as you’d imagine
I went there and it was really weird. Like I’ve heard r/worldnews is a fucked sub but it really felt like all the comments seemed like they were from another planet. Everyone was acting like a) these weren’t soldiers for an occupying army and b) that something especially brutal is being done to them. Like if IDF soldiers aren’t legitimate targets then you’re really giving up the game here.
Yeah, the amount of people framing them as basically innocent kids was disgusting. In all reality I wonder how many really are bots
They’re going to keep baying about all of this until Palestine is gone, then 20 years from now they’ll be talking about how they knew all along that it was fabricated lies.
Liberals are always on the right side of history once it is politically acceptable.
They probably see themselves as knights lol. Meanwhile irl everyone would be repulsed by them. Guess everyone needs a fantasy to stay happy.
Link please!
Here you go!
Honestly it’s the slightest bit surprising to me that Reddit is so pro-Israel. I think it goes to show just how astroturfed it is, since it is a fairly similar demographic to TikTok but an actually unbelievable difference in opinion
It’s been pointed out many times, but Reddit’s admin head is Jessica Ashooh, who previously worked for the Atlantic Council (a CIA front). She had no relevant work experience before signing on there.
It’s likely under regulatory capture by the US and has been for a while. It’s also predominantly composed of white 20-30 somethings, so…
I think also the I’M MASTER GUNNERY SERGEANT MCFACIST AMA ABOUT BEING IN THE WORLDS MOST LETHAL FIGHTING FORCE THE US MARINES interstitial reddit ads. And then zero questions are even close to being rude or unsupportive.
worldnews is idf central. it’s insane how much more pro israel it is than any other sub.
It is weird, you go to any of the mainstream/reddit-apporved/local subs and it is completely pro-israel, meanwhile when you stray into any number of smaller and even larger but non-mainstream subs like even F1, it becomes the complete opposite. It is absolutely being targeted by astroturf campaigns that hit only the largest and front page/popular subs.

Also, since a lot of context on tiktok is spoken, it would take another very impressive algorithm to be able to scroll through the highly individualized video feed, find the correct video, comment on it before people who agree with the video content do, and comment enough without looking fake to potentially change the narrative.
