  • Narratives are created by more than just that, including what is reported on, how frequently it is reported, and what is not reported on. See Chomsky's "Manufacturing Consent" to learn more.

  • It promotes the existing power structure, which some people think is no bueno.

    For example, if you post this:

    https://edition.cnn.com/2002/US/01/30/ret.axis.facts/

    the bot will say it is a highly accurate source with highly factual reporting so people will tend to believe with certainty that the U.S. should invade Iraq.

  • Probably comes with a picture and backstory of Prænh too, lol.

  • Good, one should always refer to the Ministry of Truth before deciding what is true or false for The Party.

  • Basic law:

    The right to exercise national self-determination in the State of Israel is unique to the Jewish people.

  • I think what's missing here is the existence of legal precedence. The UN had an arms embargo on apartheid South Africa starting in the 70s, so there's precedent for that.

    Fun fact: Israel violated the South Africa arms embargo. Big time.

  • In a way:

    Most anti-BDS laws have taken one of two forms: contract-focused laws requiring government contractors to promise that they are not boycotting Israel; and investment-focused laws, mandating public investment funds to avoid entities boycotting Israel.

    Very strange to have government contractors and managers of public funds swearing an oath to protect a different country. Similar situation in the UK. Interestingly enough, this is another case of "birds of a feather flock together":

    On May 17, 2019, right-wing populist party Alternative for Germany sponsored a bill "Condemn the BDS movement – protect the existence of the State of Israel" (19/9757) to ban the BDS movement nationally.

  • The UN had an arms embargo on apartheid South Africa starting in the 70s, so there's precedent for that.

    Fun fact: Israel violated the South Africa arms embargo. Big time.

  • Curiously enough, Tennessee’s Republican governor, Bill Lee, addressed the latest white supremacist march in Nashville Monday, but he only seemed to focus on the antisemitism, not specifically the racist rhetoric espoused by fragile white people who are clearly afraid to death that white power is being eroded in order for Black and brown people to thrive.

    Curiously enough, it's just bribes. Sweet sweet AIPAC money.

    Edit: sorry, wrong racist. That was Mike Lee, senator from UT.

  • Always has been.

    From the late nineteenth century onwards pictures and postcards often depicted a rebuilt Jewish Temple on the Temple Mount, sometimes next to al-Aqsa Mosque or the Dome of the Rock and sometimes in their place.

  • they scream "self defense" hard enough while bribing politicians everyone will keep supporting their Genocide.

    And should you happen to be a supporter of human rights and international law they will scream "antisemitism" hard enough until you lose your job.

  • Their source is an Israeli organization, lol. There are so many parallels between Israel's theft of Palestine and the Europeans' theft of North America, "their education/religion/culture is terrorism" is just another one on the list.

  • Aaahh capitalism. This is what business school graduates call "innovation" and "smart".

    But seriously, I'm sorry that happened to you. It's predatory, abusive, and wrong.

  • We invent the memory of choosing, about a quarter of a second after we've primed our muscles to carry out the choice.
