    Oh look, when you brainwash an entire generation into thinking a rival group are subhuman and not worthy of life, they’ll think nothing of posting their war crimes online because they don’t see themselves as doing anything wrong.

      And it’s a flex for them.

      That’s what happens when they glorify that behavior.

      None of them are going to stop doing it.

    Imagine if the IDF soldiers just stopped committing war crimes. Imagine if legacy media companies didn’t tie themselves in knots trying to protect and defend Israeli war criminals. This timeline needs more vigilantes since the corrupt systems only work to protect the ruling class, despite their crimes.

    Hey, Israel!

    How about you treat the cause instead of the symptom?

    Genocide must be so normalized in Israel that they don’t think there’s anything wrong with it, to the point where it’s acceptable to post on social media.

    It must be hard for the IDF to explain to its own soldiers why they shouldn’t post it when the entire population is brainwashed.

    “What we’ve seen in the current conflict is it’s not just the volume [of the posts], but it’s also the fact that soldiers don’t shy away from uploading videos, sometimes with their face,” or other identifying features, said Eran Shamir-Borer, director of the Center for Security and Democracy at the Israel Democracy Institute. “They’re not even ashamed of what they’re doing.”

    That behavior is ingrained from childhood.

    They would need to have a cultural shift to stop soldiers from pridefully sharing their war crimes. In their twisted minds they think what they are doing is awesome.

      Exactly. Why are these young people doing it? Because they’re showing off to their friends. “Look at these Arabs I roughed up!”

      Israeli social media today is what social media in the 1930s would look under Jim Crow, complete with lynching videos being posted. The settlers are gleefully posting videos of themselves bullying Palestinians out of their homes.
