be aware that the intent of all these lies is not to convince you but to make you feel insane

yes it feels unsettling and horrifying to be lied to about the massacre of children through so many channels at once

but you must understand how the media works, it is an organ of the capitalist state and it's function is to disseminate messages under the control of the bourgeois

the propagandist sees media messaging as not a tool for semantic understanding of the world but as a delivery system of information weapons which have various effects on target populations

demoralizing and paralyzing dissent is one of these effects

you must understand their words not as honest discourse but as part of an apparatus of creation and delivery of influence and control

this is not just a media apparatus, it is a military, economic, technological, mathematical apparatus

don't look at what they say, look at the material and social forces driving their actions forward

cant trust something that's trying to make you afraid, feel bad. doesnt seem to care about it

but thats all anything is in this country, especially journalism

e: not the workers necessarily, but def the institutions

I can handle this fairly well, but what’s harder is seeing people I’m close to just mold their opinions in real time based on the latest MSNBC line. I point out what they are doing and they lack the self awareness to see. And then I’m the conspiracy theorist who believes “terrorist disinformation”

Saw a young lady at wal mart wearing one yesterday, they had her checking receipts and she was putting on the most cartoonishly southern accent I've ever heard in my life

I was in a lovely mood when I walked up and felt bad about frowning at her because I can tell just by the dumb fake accent she was having a worse day than me


Edit: no seriously though it was "we cast Paula deen as the new Applejack" levels of southern pastiche

it sucks that she has to perform like that to keep from getting hate crimed by the braying maniacs who are letting the malign light of genocide through their cracked skulls in from the teevee, but imagining foghorn leghorn saying DTI and DTA does put a smile on my face.

3000 died in 9/11. Like a thousand died in Oct 7.

So, the for the math to make sense, if it is 15 times worse then it means that an Israeli life is worth 45 American ones, which seems seems about right.

you have to break out scientific notation to get the numbers on what they think an Israeli life is worth compared to a Palestinian one

This is going to end with liberals forming their own demolition theory, where Hamas planted charges in the hospital that melted its steel beams.

VoicesCanBe posted:

Yeah as of this morning they're now claiming that Gaza is lying about the death toll.

Really the constant shifting of their story, whereas there was one story out of Gaza from the very beginning that hasn't changed, is key here.

Yeah, but the story is only really shifting a lot for people paying attention to it. For the average person, they just hear one or two versions over the TV.

A very large portion of those that don't still get the same narratives via Facebook posts or whatever. Or via non-cable news. Neither of my parents would count as "cable news watchers" since they don't watch MSNBC/CNN/etc, but the same points are regurgitated on the local stations and "boomer internet."

than another footnote on a postcard from nowhere,

wtf happened to the video with sound of what was very obviously an air strike? Has it been part of the media's "discussion" at all? Was it determined to be from a different event? All the nonsense about "no crater" and a falling qassam or what the gently caress ever is insane obviously but I haven't seen or heard anyone mention that first video.

Seeing one or two reporters OH SO GENTLY push back on the obvious impossibility of a homemade rocket taking out a hospital gave me the faintest glimmer of hope that something in the narrative would shift last night but I gotta say I didn't expect the story today to be that the piled up corpses were a PR stunt and the cars in the parking lot were the true victims jesus christ.

If Israel didn't drop that specific bomb on the hospital they get a "free bombing" card where they can kill up to 1000 people.

they already have infinite free bombing cards
