Am I schizophrenic if I think American agencies monitor social medias to hunt for people supporting Palestine?

[-] RisingSwell@lemmy.dbzer0.com 19 points 1 month ago

I think the proper word would be paranoid, but also not a huge concern unless you are doing something about it or trying to apply for a job at a US agency.

[-] tired_n_bored@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago

Yes I'm not scared or something, but I'm just sorry for the people who actually support a cause with their heart and for this reason they get expelled from the country, lose their job etc

[-] noxypaws@pawb.social 19 points 1 month ago

That seems like an entirely reasonable suspicion to me.

[-] YarHarSuperstar@lemmy.world 14 points 1 month ago

No they absolutely do.

Not necessarily the same targets but they clearly have both the ability and motive to do such surveillance and many agencies have been implicated in massive spying programs and other surveillance and information operations, so it's reasonable to think that some of them are doing what you say as well.

Always have been. And discrediting people as mentally ill is part of the strategy, as can been seen with the example of Ernest Hemmingway, whose FBI surveillance likely contributed to his eventual suicide

Does not mean to be paranoid, but you should always be watchful.

Those are Israeli agencies

They have an army of trolls for that. There's legitimately a troll farm that is just there to...troll you.
