So...is she seriously trying to claim that Israel bombing Gaza into rubble over the last two years was all just "fake news"? Is she stupid, or does she just think everyone else is?

She's getting a nice kickback from all the US investments (both public and private) into Israel. It's that simple. Money talks. Dead children don't.

[–] Macchi_the_Slime@piefed.blahaj.zone 14 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago)

I think the claim is supposed to be that the parts of it that makes Israel look bad are what's fake. Like the proof of them bombing civilians, or of their soldiers having called shot sniping contests on literal fucking kids. She seems to be claiming that we're seeing fake videos that are showing Israel killing civilians rather than the dangerous Hamas militants they are and it's brainwashing us into being anti-Israel.

Hillary has always been an out of touch, pro war hawk. It's one of the reasons Trump won in 2016.

Reminding us how Trump won I see. Glad she opened her mouth, too many people are still trying to lionize her.

[–] phed@lemmy.ml 42 points 3 weeks ago (2 children)

It was a bad decision to even put her up as a candidate. She had been demonized by the right for years prior to the election. They literally polarized the entire right to vote against her.

[–] gAlienLifeform@lemmy.world 41 points 3 weeks ago (2 children)

That's completely irrelevant, they demonize every Dem. It was a bad decision to put her up as a candidate because she's a giant asshole and not a talented enough liar to cover it up.

[–] human@slrpnk.net 19 points 2 weeks ago (4 children)

Exactly. Trump didn't win by courting centrists. He energized entirely new voters (albeit with racism).

Democrats insist that perpetually leaning further into corporatism and imperialism and abandoning marginalized groups like trans people and immigrants will win the "likely voters".

A real winning strategy would be to have policies that actually inspire people and turn out new voters.

That would assume they actually want what they say they want though, instead of being controlled opposition.

I've literally seen videos of children's bodies being carried with a missing head, having bullet holes through their face, or having mangled bodies. I've seen videos of Palestinians trying to get food while getting shot at and hiding behind rubble. I've seen videos of civilians getting shot right in front of their children and hit with bombs while minding their own business. And I'm so tired of seeing people in suits up on a stage without a care in the world saying "it's not that bad" with a straight fucking face at every single thing going wrong in this world.

[–] fonix232@fedia.io 36 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

No you see those are totally fake videos edited by Hamas to garner sympathy, the reality is that all Palestinians are bloodthirsty savages who'd gladly kill any and all innocent israeli if given the opportunity!

Hillary, most likely. But also, /s on my part if it wasn't obvious.

"Totally made up"

Does she not realize literally anyone can go to Google Maps and see a flattened city?

Here’s a longer version that gives a little additional context to the quote:

“A lot of the challenge is with younger people. More than 50 percent of young people in America get their news from social media. So just pause on that for a second. They are seeing short-form videos, some of them totally made up, some of them not at all representing what they claim to be showing, and that’s where they get their information.”

[–] Diplomjodler3@lemmy.world 55 points 3 weeks ago (2 children)

Because listening to talking heads regurgitating corporate propaganda is so much better, right?

[–] phutatorius@lemmy.zip 18 points 3 weeks ago

Social media is also corporate propaganda.

Oh, somebody who voted for war with Iraq because she thought they had WMDs is worried about other people getting faulty information on the mideast? That's cute

This does not make her look any better, especially when the deaths as reported by legacy news are undeniable. They literally require cult-like levels of self delusion to think killing thousands of kids and leveling a city isn't objectionable.

The true cowardice is that they're doing genocide denial instead of admitting that "the 2 million Gazans isn't enough." The only way you think this is acceptable is if you think Israel doesn't just deserve a homeland, but ethnostate. That the Palestinians are just like the native Americans, "in the way of destiny."

Honestly, I could totally dig having never seen this article or discussion.

If anybody's brain has gone rotten by the algorithm it's Hillary's. I'm upset people are arranging a stage and microphone just to ask her about her worst possible stances, at some point it's gotta be considered elder abuse.

No Bernie was the good timeline. This lady caused this awful mess we have now because she thought it was her turn.

One of the reasons she was a crap candidate was that she kept resorting to that same patronizing tone.

She found a few specks of credibility left at the bottom and decided to immediately sell them to AIPAC.

I'm not so much pro-Palestine as anti-Israel if that makes sense. I realize the conflict is complex and they've all been horrible to each other for as long as anyone can remember, but Israel's bullshit has gone too far. It's inevitable to side with the Palestinians who have to live in terror every single day.

hosted by an Israeli newspaper on Tuesday that young Americans were becoming sympathetic toward Palestinians because they watch “totally made up” videos of the horrors in Gaza on social media.

The videos broadcast by mainstream news outlets of Israel’s war crimes are fake?
