Godric,

God I hate how Poe’s law is true.

Godric,

God I hate how Poe’s Law is true. Some fucking brainstarved NeoNazi is going to download this and post it as truth on their “Whyte Priiiide” website and get a gorillion updongles from people believing it must be true, because they accept da joos doing anything as gospel truth.

gothic_lemons,

But like nah. There was some evidence Saudi Arabia backed 9/11. No evidence Israel backed 9/11 that I’m aware of.

I know this shitpost and Israel are genociding and doing fucked shit right now. But call them out on the shit they did. Don’t make up shit they didn’t do.

It was supposed to make fun of how fact checking works on Twitter

Fades,

Oh so you hate literally the one good goddamn Twitter feature, the community notes??

I do not hate it. But if this photo is not edited, then they need to improve it a little bit.

gothic_lemons,

If this photo is not edited? So you were saying it was edited? What the fuck dude, find a real example of Twitter fact checking being fucked. Don’t make shit up. What are you 7 years? Or a paid troll?

My friend, I will give you the benefit of doubt and believe you when you say that this post’s purpose was to make fun of how shitty Twitter’s community notes are, and that is indeed an important topic to shed light on, so people won’t treat community notes as reliable.

However,

You can rest assured that a significant portion of the people who saw this post believed it as straight fact.

It is impossible to overstate how gullible people on the internet are, and how readily they will straight up believe conspiratorial BS, especially surrounding controversial topics like Israel.

That’s how Poe’s law works, and it is attitudes like yours that don’t take this shit seriously that end up inadvertently contributing to an environment full of libelous antisemitic conspiracies on the internet.

I beseech you to carefully consider this stuff if you ever plan to post such a thing again.

Jiggle_Physics,

More than just some evidence Saudi citizens backed them. However the claim that the government was tied to it was denied. However a portion of the report, or the missing 28 pages as it came to be known, was on this subject. Biden has since declassified, and released, these documents. They show that the ties to the government were real. They have phone, and other communications such as e-mail, between people involved and members of the government. This includes tying a hijacker to a Saudi diplomat. It is called the ENCORE report.

Microw,

I didnt know Biden released those documents, interesting!

If that’s true why haven’t we invaded Saudi Arabia? Or put sanctions on them or something.

Jiggle_Physics,

because they are one of the major players helping to secure the petro dollar, they allow us to have an enormous military base there that we use as a platform for operations all over the middle east, we have intelligence sharing agreements with them, they will work with Israel, they have major business connections to a lot of the firms and corporations that own our legislators, to name a few reasons.

Gigan,
@Gigan@lemmy.world avatar

Then why would they sponsor a terrorist attack against the US?

Jiggle_Physics,

Because not everyone in the government actually likes this relationship with the US, nor did most of the government support the attack, or Al-Qaeda. Saudi Arabia, even its government, isn’t a single person, nor is it some sort of hive mind. It is thousands of people, that fight for their own personal interests, and break down into factions of different ideas over different things.

Knock_Knock_Lemmy_In,

There are the dancing Israelis which hasn’t really been debunked. The rest of the conspiracies aren’t directly Israel related.

Fades,

The arresting officers said they saw a lot that aroused their suspicion about the men. One of the passengers had $4,700 in cash hidden in his sock. Another was carrying two foreign passports. A box cutter was found in the van. But perhaps the biggest surprise for the officers came when the five men identified themselves as Israeli citizens

Open and shut case!

Give me a fucking break you moron

I believe it was you, and the Irish.

Oh shit, I just realized why they're mentioned. Yield, for they have the high ground, and cannot be sieged.

GiveMemes,

Did you check the sub? I think it’s intended as a joke

Jiggle_Physics,

Did it never occur to you that the joke part of this being a shitpost is that the “fact check” is wrong?

fuckingkangaroos,

Joke + propaganda.

HootinNHollerin, (edited )

The only nazism I’m seeing is coming from Israel (and of course ruzzia) but ok. Also this is shitposting

db2,

1, this is for shitposts, if you’re getting your news here you’re a complete moron. 2, there’s a huge difference between the people of Israel and the government of Israel. Their government is evil and most of the people don’t actually support it. Grow up.

And yet they elect this government again and again… how many years Bibi is in power?

Knock_Knock_Lemmy_In,

Likud only got 23.4% of the vote

MxM111,
MxM111 avatar

It is multi-party system. Keeping Bibi in power does not mean voting for Likud, but for right-wing parties.

Knock_Knock_Lemmy_In,

My point is that not every Israeli is voting right wing.

MxM111,
MxM111 avatar

Of course. Just majority. For many years. Maybe this war will change things... maybe not.

db2,

Just like Putin.

Well, Israel is a democracy, Russia is not (mass media is controlled by the state, real opposition is either killed or in exile, and so on).

db2,

Sure thing buddy. And the US isn’t a corporate-run duopoly too, right?

MxM111,
MxM111 avatar

Did you just seriously stated that US is as democratic as Russia?

db2,

Sure thing buddy. Sure thing.

fuckingkangaroos,

This isn’t a shitpost, it’s propaganda

Israel is not Judaism and criticism of it is not criticism of Jewish people as a whole. To hold otherwise is to hold an entire people responsible for the actions of a few (those in the Israeli government), that those people often have no or only limited influence over, which would be an inherently bigoted position to take because it robs those people of their agency. If anything, the Israeli government itself is being antisemitic in a sense by pushing such a narrative in order to use Jewish people as a whole as a shield against criticism of their actions.
