    Israel’s social media propaganda campaign has been super well-funded and is geared to really make people think that Hamas are the only bad guys here.

    Just last night I was watching youtube with my kids and there was a commercial that showed horrible stuff in support of Israel.

        Holy shit. I’ve had premium since the start of YouTube red. I had no idea YouTube ads were like this now.

        I’m used to when it was things like “Here in my garage.”
