    When you have a group, like WorldNews, that is as radicalized by shock photos and even fake propaganda–reason and critical thought aren’t welcome. If the only thing someone can see is a targeted picture of a hurt or dead kid, then they won’t be able to hear.

    It’s the core of the Hamas propaganda program and why they seek maximum civilian casualties while living as millionaires in Qatar, the state who own and push the radicalizing stories they publish through Al Jazeera.

    I appreciate your efforts, though, and I am sorry for the inevitable downvotes.

        I wear the downvotes of terrorists and terrorist adjacent like a badge of honor. I wish I could display them as my avatar.

        The key to reducing the worry is that Lemmy is a super tiny insignificant community. And worldnews even more so, this is what insular communities do. They circle jerk propaganda and radacalize and rile each other up as a key core loop. Meanwhile rebuffing any facts, reason, or reality.

        Downvotes mean you’re doing it right.
