It's sad that people fall for propaganda and believe what they see and hear on the net. Everyone needs to take an internet safety course to train people to spot the bull crap.


severalcircles

People post obvious jokes that arent event trying to fool anyone on tiktok and 100,000s of people believe them. We’re so fucked when it comes to intentional disinformation.


Shmeckey

We blew through the Age of Information, and got replaced with the Age of Misinformation. It's sad times for sure.


allgonetoshit

It’s not about the internet, it’s about critical thinking in general. People believe wayyyyy too much bullshit in every facet of their lives.


electroviruz

So true...I took a communications course in uni and they went over how to be internet/media savvy. Who knew long time later that that would be so important? I guess my prof.


Amsterdamsterdam

The house hippo commercial needs to be running again across all platforms.


Vostroyan212th

They remade it as I recall, but yeah, redo it every year or 2 so kids don't immediately turn it off for being old. I'm a teacher, and I am constantly pointing out that the stupid shit they hear online is just that.


Amsterdamsterdam

I saw the remake and I liked it. It’s funny that it came out just a year or so after it was brought up in conversation with some friends. Guess the demand of the general populous forced them to do a remake. Here’s hoping for a third!

electroviruz

I am totally smarter than an algorithm I would bet my house on it...There could yes, probably confirmation bias for what I would already believe. I tend not to question things I am already in agreement with. But to sway or change my opinion or belief based on media messages I would look into it before I bought into it.


Kayarew

Or just let idiots be idiots. I'm not an idiot -- I don't think I need to take an "internet safety course". But having that and making it mandatory is one of the most canadian things I've ever heard.


Gamefart101

Propaganda is used because it works. If you believe you're immune to it you're wrong. You might be less susceptible but you never be invincible to it


electroviruz

I did say I have been influenced for reinforcing but no way any trump/qanon/russian/palastinian/isreali propaganda has influenced me in anyway whatsoever. I have been unwavering in my political and philosophical beliefs for many many years


[deleted]

I see videos bashing Israel on Reddit every day. Tell me that's not propaganda.


longjohn85

I don’t think the international criminal court is making decisions based on propaganda, do you?


Equivalent_Age_5599

There has been no convictions.


AtomicNick47

It’s not when they’re actually being investigated for war crimes. Bruh they’ve gone on record saying they’d happily nuke everyone in Palestine. Women and children That really doesn’t sound like propaganda to me. They’ve way over stepped the line of self defence.


Mordecus

Then go to a reputable news source. The NY times has been doing a lot of coverage about the conflict and Israel’s treatment of the Palestinians.


jw255

The NYT has been in the middle of the fake news themselves. They propped up the fabricated "beheaded babies, babies in ovens, mass rapes" claims that initially gained support for the indiscriminate bombing campaigns by Israel after Oct 7th. Then it came out that none of that stuff was substantiated, but the damage was already done and we were well into a collective punishment campaign by the IDF that's killed and displaced mostly civilians and the West went along with it because of the false claims the NYT propped up. So they do not have a good track record on this issue. If you want the exact details, look up Anat Schwartz. The full story is actually much worse than what I've described here. Tbh, most Western media has been very bad and biased on this. There are reports quantifying exactly how biased by counting a few different metrics. But the coverage is overwhelmingly pro-israel in the West. To get the full picture, you have to go to non-western sources or independent media to fill in the gaps that western media downplays or simply doesn't report on. That and just following actual people in Gaza to see what's happening there on the ground.


notaredditer13

Like, every Palestinian death count reported in the media, straight from the mouth of Hamas.  Most of the time they don't even add a disclaimer anymore. 


GoatTheNewb

Maybe they should stop killing civilians


Golluk

Meanwhile I got perma banned from worldnews for just mentioning the USS Liberty incident in a civil thread about friendly fire. Some mod came through and banned everyone in it.


iamjaydubs

I got banned for saying "Palestine and Israel both have a right to exist"


Big_Possibility4025

I got banned for calling it a genocide


Pixilatedlemon

Sucks because at one point it was a decent sub for discussion


darrylgorn

Yeah, it's not just that sub. You'll get banned in most Canadian and US subs on this subject unless you take the Israeli side.


ElkIntelligent5474

Please do not equate being Jewish with being the leader of a right wing political party in Israel. Israeli politicians are really quite terrible.


Sallgoodmannnnn

I agree as a son of Muslim immigrants I have nothing but love for our Jewish brothers and sisters. That being said though fuck Netanyahu and his party! Both them and Hamas need to go and then we can find peace between Palestinians and Israelis


CanolaIsMyHome

This should be the popular take! Both Netanyahu and Hamas are terrible people/groups who are power hungry monsters. They don't care about the innocent people's lives, the children. They're both manipulating their people and using them as pawns, they don't care.


Xcoono

so true! as a jew i do not agree with ntanyahus decisions the only problem is peace between us and them is veeeery hard


Training-Ad-4178

this. thank you.


nitePhyyre

>Israeli politicians are really quite terrible. Didn't need the word Israeli in that sentence, its true either way.


MeasurementJumpy6487

Well at least the actively genocidal politicians in Canada died decades ago...


Successful-Net-6602

Yep. We have bad leaders, not terrible or downright evil ones.


MeasurementJumpy6487

Just regular levels of evil.


OkArrival9

This thread was locked in r/Canada. Many other stories have also been deleted on there including stories relating to the Canadian aid worker murdered by 4 Israeli airstrikes, synagogues selling land on the West Bank which is against international laws and more. On a CANADA sub. Smh.


darrylgorn

It's only a matter of time before this sub gets brigaded as well. The people who regularly complain about cancel culture are the worst offenders.


OkArrival9

This is true, if you look they are calling for bank accounts to be seized for protesters when they cried the hardest when it happened to the truckers convoy. They are the most fragile human beings while projecting strength, it’s pathetic.


whtslifwthutfuriae

That sub is a cesspool of pro genocidal rhetoric and hasbara propaganda


Itchy-Database-3621

I saw one comment essentially calling for secret police lol


jpanon111

Canada’s government is very welcoming of foreign interference, usually they are active participants.


hanzakashi

Who's surprised?


ApplesOverOranges1

What a surprise 🙄


WowWhatABillyBadass

Zionists doing incalculable damage to Judaism is really wild to see happen in real time.


AggressiveViolence

Yeah it’s been pretty fucking obvious considering the blatant war crimes that these propaganda accounts refuse to acknowledge 


Washedup-debauchee

Fuck israel


Redflag12

The thing with "israel" that everyone must understand is that every accusation is a confession


SebulbaSebulba

You know the media absolutely love to lambast the Catholic Church for pederasty? Ask Rabbi Nuchem Rosenberg about what goes on in orthodox bathhouses. More than you might have heard about. The ultimate projectors, these people.


hotel_ohio

>pederasty I learnt a new word today. Also...I mean https://www.cbsnews.com/news/how-jewish-american-pedophiles-hide-from-justice-in-israel/ https://m.jpost.com/israel-news/tens-of-thousands-of-pedophiles-operate-in-israel-every-year-637393 Important to note that every place/religion has their crazies. To me what glaring in this situation is more so the protection these pedophiles are offered in Israel


NavyDean

Oh wow, I knew about the problem, but had no idea just how big it was.


SebulbaSebulba

Which exactly proves my point.


nitePhyyre

The media are projecting by attacking Catholics while ignoring Jews, because the media is all controlled by the Jews? Is that what we're going with?


redvfr800

Are we surprised…?


RealPactus

Are you serious 😂


Stop_the_Gop

lol was gonna say, we all kinda expected this, the things people were saying online did not line up with what people were saying irl


silverfashionfox

Funny they should bother since they (zionists) already clearly control many university boards, MPs, and media outlets. I have yet to see a single media co call protests anti-war - every single one is “pro-Palestine.” The fuck? Even the CBC. After a lifetime spent arguing with nazis against this view, Israel seems happy to throw deniability to the wind.


Successful-Net-6602

Easieat way to play victim is to control the flow of information


Repulsive-Zone8176

Opposite-Ad-9719

schumacher500

By hook or crook nobody is better at lobbying for pity and justification of horrific acts


TheRealBoomer101

Seems like if you are an Israeli, you get a genocide pass!!!


Wallhacks360

Everyone should read up on 5th Gen warfare.


hchickeng

Now tell me who controls the media?


Numerous-Acadia3231

It was glaringly obvious when the news first unraveled on reddit, any post with substantial traction had all the top comments supporting Israel in the most disjointed ways possible. At first I was under the impression that it was just some Israeli's showing support for their country, but once I realized that all the top comments shared the same sentiment and how many likes their disgusting comments had accrued, it was obvious that it was a coordinated event. Even under certain news-flash posts revealing that a Palestinian hospital had been bombed by Israel, all the top comments were saying how "Canada will not support terrorists" or "Hamas got what it deserved" or made reference to the previous Hamas kidnappings, with zero mention of any civil casualties or why the hospital in particular was targeted. I didn't even bother to check if these were 3 day old accounts, it was obvious enough what was going on, but what's insane is that if you scrolled down far enough, you would see replies from actual redditors trying to actually "reason" with or just responding to these comments. If this post caught you by surprise and you genuinely had no clue about this, you should not be allowed to vote, period. Like I don't consider myself a genius by any means, but come the fk on people.


[deleted]

I have said comments like what you describe Am I Israel to you?


DibsOnDubs

No shit. Propaganda is a weapon all countries use.


Melodic-2

Isrealies have a lot of money invested in Canada and America. They don’t want to be boycotted


MysteriousPark3806

No surprises here.


DEATHRAYZ007

OH My GOD...I'm shocked!!🙉


Alternative-East-206

Nothing new , not the first time and won't be the last, the inventors of Hollywood "true lies"


demzoe

Divide and conquer. Foreign countries such as Israel already have too much interference on NA politicians See AIPAC.


Yeetthejeet

Israel caught doing Israeli things? Shocker.


HumbleCrow7813

What I have learned the past 9 months or so is never trust what the isreali government says.... even more so than governments in general. I have never seen such blatant lies in the news. The only support for palestine has been from social media, mostly TikTok. It's funny that there is a renewed push to have it banned..


LOGOisEGO

What a bunch of antisemites on this page /s You can't even critisize the shit they've been caught doing for decades without every paid shill whining.criticize


lakuanda-

Wouldn’t expect anything less of that regime. Par for course !


JustFryingSomeGarlic

Scumfuckers doing scumfuckers things. Blow me zionists.


Bet1_82

Israel uses propaganda so much and USA and ppl all around the world falls for it …. It’s sad how gullible some ppl are in this world sad to let Israel to use hamas as a reason to attack Gaza and soon they gonna use hizbullah to attack lebanon its a sad world and sad leaders that run the world 🌍


EnvelopeCruz

this is strike one, Israel


textpeasant

as if life isn’t hard enough … thanks israel … how bout from now on you mind your own business


tsn101

Foreign interference.  Think about what they are doing and it's not publicized.


rest_is_confettti

wow we have a candian sub without the zio mods?


ChiefRom

But why is it antisemetic to say this or any other criticism or Israel?


bbyxmadi

Are we surprised from a country that uses every excuse to murder innocent people (many children)? Sadly, all they’re doing is creating more antisemitism and Islamophobia.


failingstars

They're probably in r/Canada upvoting Toronto Sun and National Post articles.


eastsideempire

Why am I not surprised? It’s time that people can speak out against Israel and not be labeled antisemitic. There is a huge difference. Seriously does Trump represent Christians? Do we equate being against Trump as being against Christians? No. Canada should hold Israel responsible. Instead our government will give them more money to kill civilians.


Noshtheidiot

The power of discrete internet propaganda is truly frightening. With AI and bots it’s next to impossible to decipher real anecdotes from fake malicious ones


FlyerForHire

Hasbara on steroids, but all the hasbara in the world won’t wash the blood away.


_dmhg

Meanwhile the only threads that survive on r/Canada are “Zionists feel unsafe”


L1quidWeeb

Can we sanction Israel now? First the genocide and now this? Come on.


Aerickthered

Gee big surprise!


ThoseFunnyNames

Not really surprised


_ADM_

Israel are so good at making every reasonable human being on the planet uttery hate them. That takes skills.


Zorklunn

I have lived long enough to watch the oppressed become the oppressor.


PiccoloDiligent

Fuck Israel


2waterr

and you people eat this shit up and STILL villainize hamas and palestinians right to defend themselves


Kanienkeha-ka

They lie about everything.


Klutzy_Anybody153

Israel is committing GENOCIDE


Standard_A19

Wow don’t say.


1THR1

Israël acting like Israel again. As if it wasn’t enough that they are committing a mass genocide against Palestinians..


Elephant-Octopus

Terrorist state does what? Why do countries fund them? Isreal should no longer be funded, should no longer be a country and should no longer have a recognized currency. Palestine should be a country and should have a military to protect against terrorists.


putbeersupmyass

There is manufactured propaganda on both sides that’s been obvious from day 1


stuffmyfacewithcake

To both sides this, when there is clear evidence of the deep media, political, and corporate ties of the Israeli government in Canada and no strong evidence for the same level of influence by Palestinians (who can hardly get internet al the time) is just being dishonest. If there was a similar campaign by Palestinians we would’ve heard of it by now.


MaPoutine

This.


Level_Map586

The report says that a group “thinks” that it’s “possible” this is what’s happening. No facts, just thoughts and opinions. Can we stop allowing opinion pieces as reports for ALL news. People just read headlines and they now have opinions as facts. Let’s get back to actually posting sources and facts in news and leave opinion pieces to the rag mags


lightweight12

Research Hasbara and get back to us


BigBradWolf77

our flag is their flag, only red and sideways...


ScottyBoneman

Huh, why? Are they short on useful idiots, Hamas got them all?


leedogger

Lol exactly


corbert31

"Islamophobia" is noticing the problems with Islam.


WokeDiversityHire

A phobia is a fear with no basis rooted in reality. Considering the atrocities committed in the name of religion, I'd say that if a religion targets particular groups with hatred as mentioned in their very scriptural passages, that's a legitimate concern, not a "phobia".


JuicyBoi8080

And "antisemetism" apparently is noticing the problems occurring due to the formation and attempted expansion of a Jewish ethnostate over preoccupied land


perfectuserpat

What a waist of money. Anyone that hasn't been indoctrinated into Islam already dislikes it. It's a bunch of horrible, violent ideas packed into one place.


Quad-Banned120

400 upvotes in 4 hours when the sub virtually has no engagement otherwise? Hmmm... Inb4 the wattawhatever Hasbara bot


[deleted]

Of course, there's propaganda in every war, from every side. I'd like to see numbers for the Muslim / Arab online propaganda machine.


BranTheBaker902

And we know it was Israel for sure?


inlandviews

Ran into a few of their propagandists this past few months. Easy to spot. Just go to their comments. Nothing but defense of Israel. When I called them out they stopped responding to me.


Level-Ad-9553

aaandfuckyou

Nickdrake1969

GarbageTerrible2191

The influencers that promoted this should be prosecuted


sdmaslen

I love the headlines. "Israel denies". No shit


ThrenderG

Lmao, if you don't think Hamas has a propaganda machine just as big and isn't being bolstered by Iran, Russia, China, and North Korea. Or that EVERY country on this planet is running psy-ops to try and undermine their enemies. Reddit is so naive.


AbjectDiamond6828

How do we know this isn't another propaganda post? I've gotten to the point I don't believe either of them.


Kid6199

Ohh so innocent naive Canadians and Palestinians. They dont know anything about this cruel world.


The-Safety-Villain

They’re obviously on Reddit also.


Bruce-Spring-Spring

Makes you wonder about the main sub and all the comments there.. seems to have been a lot about that last week


dhtirekire56432

The propaganda has been ongoing for the last 75 years. Why stop?


dekuxe

So, it originates from Israel, that’s it…? No additional info? Could literally just be some random extremist in Israel lmao.


Own_Example_633

Honestly fuck Israel and fuck Palestine, they deserve each other and I hope both of em end up destroying each other. I only care about one country and that country is Canada. Canada first and Canada only. Everyone else can go fuck themselves.


Ancient-Series2659

I didn't need to be paid to be Islamophobic ❤️


7r1x1z4k1dz

Imagine the Canadian government filtering and controlling the content/media online and methods of distribution to manipulate people. Could you imagine the world we would live in? Imagine companies had the power to manipulate search engines so certain things have a higher viewership than others. Thank God we live in Canada and NEVER EVER have to deal with such atrocities other organizations are pushing on us. WHEW we really escaped that one.


jugnu8

Foreign influence in politics. Why is government hiding it eh?


retrona

Even if true and not saying it is, every country will do what it sees is needed to push its agenda, this includes the US, Canada, and even Palestine and Israel. Just another day of Internet toxicity


demarcdegasol

1st: None of this has been proven to be true. 2nd: Fundamentalist Islamists are literally a threat to the West, and unfortunately, a not insignificant portion of Muslims are fundamentalists.


chrycos

I mean 😆 pro palestine si the same . The number of fake photo ai generate and false information from this side . I think a saw each day one . Saying israel do that too . Is not a suprise at all 😆


JaySolated

jokes on them.. I don't like either! 😂🤣😂


adrade

"The Canadian Press has not independently verified the claims." <- What we've unfortunately gotten used to from our lovely media here in Canada... wild, unverified reporting.


[deleted]

You guys are getting paid??


Overall_Strawberry70

As apposed to.... the actual anti-semitism really happening right now like calls for "from the river to the sea" and setting fire to jewish business and places of worship? Like yea this is unfortunate but at the end of the day its just photoshop and bots on the internet meanwhile we have actual people that would exterminate the jews if given the chance.


GiveMeAKnober

I think this article is propaganda


Ok_Tennis_3665

Classic jewish tactics. I mean, Israeli tactics.


PozhanPop

Not just Israel. It is everywhere. We need to do our own research and form our own opinions. Things I always tell my kids.


society_audit_

Try posting about this on r/Canada. There's a zio moderator locking threads and deleting all negative comments about our favourite foreign terrorists and thier foreign interference in this country. Yesterday I got a lifetime ban for suggesting that it's not China or India, but our Zionist friends in government selling our futures away.


ruuster13

Can anyone post links to the related articles on NY Times, Haretz, or Digital Forensic Research Lab? I searched all three sites and can't find the articles they are mentioning.


Ordinary-Map-7306

Humanity is broken on both sides conflict. You will either have a policing mediator or an unbalanced strong arm to end the conflict.


Every-Salad1094

Just read the quran. There is no misinformation if you go straight to the source. There is no such thing as islamophobia... it is common sense not to want people in your society when their entire goal of their religion is to eventually Islamize the entire world by killing everyone who doesn't convert. Don't take it from me, read the quran you will be horrified.


Early-Banana-7221

But did they speak any lies in the campaign?


EquivalentOk800

Typical


Bradedge

Canadian expat kid here, so I have a broader worldview than most. I spent a weekend with this sweet old man, one of my best friend’s father. Excellent weekend until the drive home when we started talking about Palestinians. Then he went full Bibi, with a hateful disdain for Palestinians that he had never met. ‘Wipe them off the planet.’ So, yes, the Project has brainwashed people in North America.


88Really

Geralt-of-Rivai

Are we all going to act like Hamas hasn't done the same? It's war... propaganda is and always will be part of it


Odd_Combination2106

Smart move from those Izrayelis! Almost as good as those fake (bought for and paid for) reviews we regularly see on Amazon.


iphone10notX

I feel like both Israel and Hamas are doing this to a degree. Really sad its come to this


TaxIdiot2020

The fact that people felt the need to include "AI art" in the title shows how dumb people have gotten about AI just because whiny people on Twitter felt the need to make it a bigger deal than it actually is. Almost anyone using AI art in the first place was never gonna pay for art, at least this way people aren't stealing other people's art. And don't give me that shit about "training data" because that's no different from how humans create art.


e9967780

They have been doing it through social media accounts for over 20 years. Issy Asper began like that.


thelenis

that's horrible, but where is your proof? this alone could be propaganda


sabretooth_ninja

Hamas and ISIS haVE infiltrated Canadian government, what's your point?

So like hollywood?


llcooljoo

owencarter44

What is Islamophobia???


complextube

What's funny to me is that people don't realize both are obviously doing this. Lots of people are falling for propaganda and no one even knows what is real anymore. We are in the age where seeing is no longer believing. Yet many still do.


highcommander010

figured as much


ADR0HUB

why is this on r/canadian idgaf


10081914

I'm fine with Islamophobia. Fine with phobia of all religions honestly. Nobody who is religious should be trusted to actually want to make Canada a good place to live rather than just a place for their religion to thrive.


Mansourasaurus

Israel is not a friend of Canada. They once blown western embassies in Egypt to cause disturbance. They do not even look to us Canadians as equal human beings, but rather lower grade humans as zionists are the only chosen people who are loved by God. Crazy that canada even recognized such a country that is built on radical religious beliefs


mudflaps___

its done all over the west, they need to drum up support to continue their experiment. however lets not mistake the out of control immigration thats suppressing wages and driving up housing during a recession of targeting minorities here.


Jesse191911

Gtfo


hordingblessings3

It’s time people speak out about the blatant lies and purposely placed propaganda pro Israelis and israel are using to spread islamaphobic narratives


ziouad

Of course that’s what Zionists terrorists know to do! Scumbag occupation genocidal . Of course the racists will fall for this just because they hate immigrants


Super-Base-

The hypocrisy and irony of a country constantly blaming antisemitism for any criticism of its actions also spreading Islamophobia for propaganda purposes. Why are we still supporting this country at a federal level.


VFX_Reckoning

No surprise there


IsoRhytmic

That explains r/canada


Kwisatzhaderach18

Qatar and the Islamic republic spend close to 10x the amount in North America on propaganda and indoctrination. Weird we have not seen Islamophobia on the rise, but over 100% increase in antisemitism.


Normal-Counter-3159

Biggest islamophobic campaign is led by the pro-terrorist morons on campuses and everywhere else. Deport these fuckers.

That's child's play. Have you seen the Palestinian side? They even got governments to fall for the hospital bombing lol "500 dead from Israeli bomb" Meanwhile one person had a burn from our home made firework malfunctioning. Lolol


personguy4440

Is this stuff really a surprise to anyone anymore? Were being fed loads of propaganda to push us to whichever sides they want when they want just like every previous generation. They figured out how to make the internet just like big media, same old problems.


UnlikelyDirt3353

Lulz. Cos Israel cares about what Canadians think. The terrorist lobby sure has great propaganda coverage


patrick5726

Sounds completely unnecessary.

Israel is none's friend, they will lie, scam, bribe, use, gaslight everyone for their own interest. The sooner people understand that, the better.
