      Because the other platforms censor Palestine content much harder.

      Bluesky and Mastodon are worse than Twitter. That’s a fact.

          Try finding footage of Hamas blowing up an IDF tank on Bluesky.

          Try finding emanciated babies on Bluesky.

          Try finding palestinian bodies with their guts bombed out on Bluesky.

              Yes. Showing the actual reality of the genocide is incredibly important. I’m sure you’ve only seen the pictures of white sanitized body bags in your media to sanitize and paletize the suffering.

          Never heard of Mastodon, an open standard, doing that. I don’t think they understand what they are saying.

            Mastodon is basically only Mastodon.social

            Multiple Lemmy users have attested to having their Palestine content censored on Mastodon.social. I never saw any good content on it either.

                Not that shocking. They’re still active but dodging this question.

          Starving kids. Palestinians blown up by the IDF. Combat footage. Anything that Western censor will never allow to be shown unless it’s October 7 or Ukraine.

            So… straight up Hamas propaganda?

            It may be shocking for you to learn this, but most people don’t want to be complicit in distributing propaganda from a terrorist organization whose goal is to promote violence. If someone gets “radicalized” by this propaganda and does something violent they may be held liable.

            Media sources generally don’t believe what a terrorist organization says at face value. They work to confirm the reports and if they can’t there’s a high probability that a group that celebrates massacring people is lying.

            Understand that sometimes terrorist groups that are willing to kill people to further their cause are also capable of lying to further their cause. It takes a lot of time and effort to decipher which of the things Hamas is saying are lies and which are the truth. Responsible media organizations do that, irresponsible click-baity scammy organizations don’t. So sometimes you’ll see things reported by “alternative media” before it’s reported by mainstream media (after it’s confirmed) and sometimes the things reported by “alternative media” is never reported by mainstream media because it can’t be confirmed and is likely not true.

            Is it censorship when someone is just being careful not to spread lies?

              In what way do you support palestine. Is it the same way like canada , france, uk leaders claim to?

              You can talk about about her somewhere else where it is not related to gaza and palestine

                  She doesn’t get a redemption arc after the shit she fucking pulled with the presidential race in the US.

                  “What she pulled” here meaning “ran in it”. BLUEMAGA doesn’t believe anyone except democrats and Republicans should be allowed in elections

          No need for Democrat propaganda. The election is already lost.

          There is zero evidence she’s a Russian asset. She was already cleared by an investigation. You’re spouting insane conspiracy nonsense.

      Are you sad she’s still progressive after the elections and Dems are still supporting genocide after the elections?
