    The quality and absurdity of IDF propaganda recently gives the impression they don’t take it seriously either. It used to be pretty convincing, but I think they’re at the point where everyone running the show is an extremist who can’t consider the outside perspective. So it becomes this schizophrenic thing where the propaganda is directed at a hypothetical viewer they’ve envisioned who doesn’t really exist. Some of the stuff showing up on my YouTube is straight up uncanny valley weirdness.

    Also if everything the IDF is promoting here are the true facts of the situation it still doesn’t justify their actions to the world. The number of people who are finally realizing this is at least a good thing. The response to ceasefire protests from the Israel propaganda machine shares the schizophrenic tone with some of the propaganda as well, to the point where they’re calling Jewish groups non-Jews and equating peace with anti-Semitism.
