Let’s talk about the Beit Lahia protests. Western media’s attempt to label them “anti-Hamas” is deeply misleading - and here’s why:
The majority of placards and chants are demanding an end to the genocide. Palestinians are pleading for basic rights, food, water, and the right to live.
Yes, some anti-Hamas chants are heard, but there’s no evidence to suggest these protests are solely “anti-Hamas.” By generalizing them, Western media shifts blame from Israel’s destruction of Gaza, its massacres, and its blockade that’s starving and suffocating the population.
This narrative also fuels Netanyahu’s claim that “the plan is working,” emboldening Israel to justify the illegal occupation and ethnic cleansing of Gaza they openly advocate.
Western media? I mean… eastern media isn’t honest either.
when it comes to hamas or gaza; western media makes eastern media look like an angel considering that western media is literally enabling genocides and imperialist wars.
Yeah but eastern media is totally ignoring the genocide in China.
So, we can go back and forth on which hemisphere is worse, like uneducated Wumaoski, or we can agree that every form of authoritarian government is bad and unnecessary.
Solid agreement.
I wish I could enjoy the irony of a “both sides” argument used here to excuse the hundreds of genocides enabled by western media when Eastern media is very much as relatively innocent as Democrats are compared to Republicans in ghoulishness and I do agree that authoritarian regimes are no good, but i already know that the oligarchical authoritarian regime that’s called the West isn’t considered as such here.
I disagree, eastern media covers none of the reeducation camps, the systematic slaughter of minorities, the imprisonment of anyone who thinks differently or challenges the authoritarian Chinese government. You must have forgotten that there are plenty of billionaires in China. Communism cannot exist when there are billionaires. I’m sure you have an excuse for that, as all you ML do to justify things.
What’s really sad is you cannot recognize that the rulers of the world all work together to maintain control. You’re just as much a slave to them as I am. As anyone is.
What the WORLD needs is to eradicate billionaires and the people who enable them. To tear down authoritarian governments and not put up another in its place with the promise of better at some point.
You and I could be on the same team, but you have to stop protecting the lies of the ruling class.
we’re not on the same team because liberals are willfully ignorant of the propaganda that western media re-inforces, rendering them useless at stopping those oligarchic billionaires despite the overwhelming numbers that give them the power to do so and living, breathing examples like, mexico & sheinbuam, that prove how easy it is to get started.
china is communist in name only like the west is democratic in name only and the systemic suppression of disenfranchised minorities in the west is so rampant with the current western hegemon that its wealth gap; education delta; & prison system is proportionately the largest in the world by far; you would be able see to for yourself if you could acknowledge the propaganda in western media that makes the basis for your platform so divorced from reality.
fortunately for leftists, liberal acknowledgement of any propaganda not a requirement for those capitalist billionaires to disappear since the inherent contradictions in capitalism is guaranteed to end its own existence eventually anyways and its decay has already started, as evidenced by the ascendancies of all of the fascists leaderships and governments across the entire western world.
We aren’t all willfully ignorant. I agree the media is controlled—east and west, north and south.
I’ll just repeat everything you said, but about the east.
Stop being a shill and join the people of the world. Stop the pointless east and west bullshit. It’s like you’ve been programmed.
The ruling class in the world is the problem. Let’s team up. I’m willing… are you?
i don’t doubt your willingness, i doubt your ability and effectiveness; you can’t plan and fight something that your environment won’t let you see.
the m/l methods i’m using to fight the ruling class have proven to be durable enough to outlast 2 centuries worth of varying incarnations of multiple ruling classes and benefits from the writings of “lessons learned” from people that have tried (and failed) various strategies in those last 2 centuries.
ignoring these “lessons learned” and advocating for further rounds of try-and-fail strategies against opponents who HAVE taken to heart their own “lessons learned” is not going to make difference.
if you want to fight the ruling class effectively, read m/l theory and apply it to your life.
