We’ve gone from “sex sells” to “rage sells” and it’s reflected in all media. I’ve been on the internet since 1994 and I was on BBSs before that. In the 80s we were always taught to be cautious about the motivation behind public communication, whether that’s advertising, news, posters on telephone poles, or people yelling on street corners. Nowadays people walk around in a constant state of despair and furious rage over “seeing how awful things actually are”. The conflict in Israel has been going on since 632, for example.
If there’s an active conspiracy out there, it’s a handful of super wealthy folks in media are producing content that causes you to hyperfocus on Agent Orange and his band of fascist wannabes because that’s the politics you have the least control over and has the least control over you. They want people’s minds flooded with hand-wringing anguish because it stops them from focusing on their own family and community and making things better for people in their orbit, which would cause them to potentially lose a little bit of power. If you want to buck the system, start with your own city council, I promise that your local zoning board has plenty for you to be angry with.
The president of the United States has the least control over US citizens? I was with you until you wrote that. That is absolutely incorrect. And even if it was correct, local authorities never sent the national guard just to scare and demoralize the population. If you want to tune out and pretend things aren’t worse in the US than before, in many ways, go ahead, but don’t try and delude others on your way.
Don’t try and just group history together and tell me “tHeRe hAS bEEn cOnFLicT tHeRe bEfoRe iSrAeL”.
The crusades are one thing.
The formation of states by deciding their borders, deciding that one of these states is now intended to now house an entire ethnicity, and having that new state be a western military power that is now completely unrestricted is another thing entirely.
The conflict is not “in Israel”, it’s in Palestine.
The conflict has been in there since the formation of the military state of israel.
