Hillary Clinton Says Young Americans Are Pro-Palestine Because They Watch ‘Totally Made Up’ Videos of Gaza Horrors
Clinton complained young Americans were becoming sympathetic towards Palestinians because they watch "totally made up" videos on social media.
So...is she seriously trying to claim that Israel bombing Gaza into rubble over the last two years was all just "fake news"? Is she stupid, or does she just think everyone else is?
yes and yes.
There are some people that are in the positions of power they are in because of the inaccurate world views they hold. There are "morally good" people that uphold the structures of power (but rarely those with actual power) because they genuinely believe they are doing what is good for humanity.
Hilary Clinton is not one of those people. She is not "stupid". She is a genuinely morally bankrupt human being.
She's getting a nice kickback from all the US investments (both public and private) into Israel. It's that simple. Money talks. Dead children don't.
I think the claim is supposed to be that the parts of it that makes Israel look bad are what's fake. Like the proof of them bombing civilians, or of their soldiers having called shot sniping contests on literal fucking kids. She seems to be claiming that we're seeing fake videos that are showing Israel killing civilians rather than the dangerous Hamas militants they are and it's brainwashing us into being anti-Israel.
Sometimes the elderly have trouble adapting familiar concepts which have changed. She thinks of Israel as this small democratic state of people returned to their ancestral homeland beset by enemies from all sides, like under the leadership of PM Rabin, she can't process the new information that Israel headed by a brutal ethnic cleansing dictator is trying to kill off 2 million people, majority women and children, to create beachfront property.
Hillary has always been an out of touch, pro war hawk. It's one of the reasons Trump won in 2016.
Reminding us how Trump won I see. Glad she opened her mouth, too many people are still trying to lionize her.
It was a bad decision to even put her up as a candidate. She had been demonized by the right for years prior to the election. They literally polarized the entire right to vote against her.
They demonize zorhan as well, the problem is Clinton (like 95% of the republicans) simply believes whatever her donors tell her.
she was always the "lesser of the evils" candidate. For once the dems need to actually give us a good non-corporate fueled, actually, socially aware and empathetic, candidate. Otherwise the party is done and its probably for the best.
drumpf is the kid on the bus you could get to do anything. the dems and republicans are all the other kids. they're creating infrastructure for a forecasted 25% unemployment rate among college grads and the subsequent social unrest that will follow. Classism 101
I've literally seen videos of children's bodies being carried with a missing head, having bullet holes through their face, or having mangled bodies. I've seen videos of Palestinians trying to get food while getting shot at and hiding behind rubble. I've seen videos of civilians getting shot right in front of their children and hit with bombs while minding their own business. And I'm so tired of seeing people in suits up on a stage without a care in the world saying "it's not that bad" with a straight fucking face at every single thing going wrong in this world.
No you see those are totally fake videos edited by Hamas to garner sympathy, the reality is that all Palestinians are bloodthirsty savages who'd gladly kill any and all innocent israeli if given the opportunity!
Hillary, most likely. But also, /s on my part if it wasn't obvious.
Something something condiment hummus
Jesus fucking christ
Israel is just too valuable an ally for the empire. Why would America turn against it's own child: a genocidal liberal democracy displacing brown people?
It's the flaw of hierarchial power structures. They always calcify to serve themselves. Not the people they're supposed to serve. Look at North Korea and China assisting Russia's imperial machinations in the Donbas and Crimea. None of them (all similar power structures. Not just the ones I named) are our allies.
They're living the American dream!
This kind of thing is why she loat an election to Donald Trump of all people. She had the easiest race in history, but failed because she is a deeply unlikable shill
Biggest loser. And apparently only gives third rate blow jobs.
Her worst transgression
Shut up, Hilary, you loser.
Honestly if the Clinton’s (Hillary specifically) could just shut the fuck up forever we would all be better off.
Well not so fast - I wanna hear from bubba on whether orange mussolini gives toothy head or not
A-fucking-men to that.
These fucking over-privileged cunts have already screwed us so badly it'll take decades to recover if we even can at this point. They both need to shut up and get the fuck out.
"Totally made up"
Does she not realize literally anyone can go to Google Maps and see a flattened city?
Nah those buildings just uh all fell down by themselves . Total coincidence.
Recently Israeli settlres attacked the christian village of taibeh and set fire to a bunch of the town and the church of st george, and destroyed the water system. Then when accused of it they claimed they hadnt done it and the christians had torched their own village and destroyed their own water supply.
Here’s a longer version that gives a little additional context to the quote:
“A lot of the challenge is with younger people. More than 50 percent of young people in America get their news from social media. So just pause on that for a second. They are seeing short-form videos, some of them totally made up, some of them not at all representing what they claim to be showing, and that’s where they get their information.”
Because listening to talking heads regurgitating corporate propaganda is so much better, right?
Social media is also corporate propaganda.
Right?! Getting news from tiktok is just the next evolutionary step from 24 hour news channels. They're just pissed that they're getting out-gamed in a realm where they used to reign effortlessly.
Oh, somebody who voted for war with Iraq because she thought they had WMDs is worried about other people getting faulty information on the mideast? That's cute
"Do as I say, not as I do"
This does not make her look any better, especially when the deaths as reported by legacy news are undeniable. They literally require cult-like levels of self delusion to think killing thousands of kids and leveling a city isn't objectionable.
The true cowardice is that they're doing genocide denial instead of admitting that "the 2 million Gazans isn't enough." The only way you think this is acceptable is if you think Israel doesn't just deserve a homeland, but ethnostate. That the Palestinians are just like the native Americans, "in the way of destiny."
Did somebody tell her how Biden (and traditional outlets) fell for the "decapitated babys on october 7th hoax"?
I think the problem is more that 80% of older Americans get their news from Fox, as well as the fact that 95% of Americans think everything can be dumbed down into a 30 second video and their opinion after watching it carries the same weight as someone who spent a lifetime studying the issue.
And yes Hillary always has been a pretty terrible person. But Trump is so so so much worse.
How many decades of study does it take to come to the conclusion that 'Israel was right to detonate pager-bombs' and not deserve shit for it?
That is to say not every greybeard academic is immune to shit takes.
I'm sure some videos are staged or focus on the worst tragedies in the region, but I have yet to see any footage that paints Israel in a positive light. So it's either a genocide in real-time or they're making existence for all in Gaza so miserable that Hamas surrenders. Neither action is tolerable.
I’d be ok if we could all act like not a fucking thing this publicity hag says matters.
Honestly, I could totally dig having never seen this article or discussion.
If anybody's brain has gone rotten by the algorithm it's Hillary's. I'm upset people are arranging a stage and microphone just to ask her about her worst possible stances, at some point it's gotta be considered elder abuse.
people are arranging a stage and microphone just to ask her about her worst possible stances, at some point it's gotta be considered elder abuse.
Lmao my bizarre ADHD brain made me think this meant people were trolling her by setting up the stage and microphone in awkward ways so she'd have to answer in uncomfortable positions, and I was kinda all for that.
I should sleep lol.
^ This person was the "good" timeline for America. Dw I'm sure voting blue will work out one day.
No Bernie was the good timeline. This lady caused this awful mess we have now because she thought it was her turn.
Bernie would have wiped the floor with Trump in 2016. Bernie is immune to any rhetoric from the right thrown his way because his principals are clear and always abides by them.
first time ive ever said something like this, but really, if the dems give us another corporate shill candidate, voting for a 3rd party candidate that has no chance might not be the worst option. maybe the country really just needs to fully implode, maybe that will finally break it out of its complacent stupor. Though, I doubt it.
One of the reasons she was a crap candidate was that she kept resorting to that same patronizing tone.
Yep Bernie bros and all that.
Anyone who says this should be airdropped into Gaza.
The people in Gaza have suffered enough. Don’t do that to them
Its a Democrat thing, the Obamas did it and still do it too.
Without a parachute
She found a few specks of credibility left at the bottom and decided to immediately sell them to AIPAC.
I'm not so much pro-Palestine as anti-Israel if that makes sense. I realize the conflict is complex and they've all been horrible to each other for as long as anyone can remember, but Israel's bullshit has gone too far. It's inevitable to side with the Palestinians who have to live in terror every single day.
Calling it complex only serves Israeli agenda.
The issue is simple - No amount of complexity justifies a genocide.
No, you can acknowledge that complexity of the conflict and history without condoning Israel’s actions.
Discouraging people from appreciating nuance and encouraging them to think about a complex problem simplistically (as you are doing) is what tends to serve an agenda.
I agree with you, but I think you're taking one idea to leverage another to arrive at a conclusion that I'm not promoting. The other commenters seem to have interpreted well what I'm trying to say.
What a thoroughly awful human being.
Oh really, Hillary? So why did a good portion of the rest of the world say on record that Israel is committing genocide? They all watching the fake videos too?
Can she just fade into complete obscurity already? Would've thought that would be what she'd want to do given her husband is gunna be a big name in the Epstein files, and possibly also her too
Clinton? A zionist? You don’t say! Colour me unsurprised.
Is this the new Hasbara talking point being pushed by Israel PR? First that Obama speechwriter says it and now Hillary
The Democrats were never our friend. The Republicans are merely worse.
Fucking removed
No, it's because they watch tiktoks made by IDF soldiers
The lesser of two evils.
hosted by an Israeli newspaper on Tuesday that young Americans were becoming sympathetic toward Palestinians because they watch “totally made up” videos of the horrors in Gaza on social media.
The videos broadcast by mainstream news outlets of Israel’s war crimes are fake?
I'm so sick of reading this shit from liberals. It took less than a year for them to sound like Republicans did a year ago.
You know, I've held my opinions about Donald Trump but he really couldn't have gotten to the point he has without the help of good ol' Hillary Rodham.
Hey Hillary......fuck you
Don't put your dick in crazy.
Lol true
And Democrats decided she was a better option than Bernie.
Their donors did, and the Dem party obeyed.
Who picked this scab and got it oozing again?!!
Yep, that's another side effect of AI gen videos. They'll call whatever they don't agree with fake now.
This is why she was never president. Not because she is a she.
Just another anti-life crusader.
WTF, she's only one small step ahead of Krasnov.
Who’s got her evil laugh track on queue?
I got you Internet Stranger. https://youtu.be/BR7AzntOc6o
aaaaaaand that's an unfollow on bsky.
So it seems like she is trying to secure as much money as she can because she knows her political career is gone in time of: Maga, America First, and Progressive Democrat. So she is going to be a mouth piece for Israel and get a salary.
could be that the zionists will protect her from trump's magas coming for her.
Damn, removed is old
should be an age limit or at least a cognition test for politicians
They also watched the totally real results of a landscape reflecting Warsaw and Stalingrad in WW2.
All said and done, her point is accurate. Young people are consuming more and more propaganda and less factual information. And that is really dangerous. The article doesn't mention if she said atrocities weren't occuring or anything, so I assume she didn't. Sounds like a little pandering for a paycheck. But not the total sellout I expected. I have no love for the Clinton's, but they were closer to old school poloticians that tried to walk the line but not cross over. Today's poloticians just jump right over the line and start pitching propaganda for the highest bidder.
