What's your thoughts on this? (media.piefed.social)

This seems like a waste of time to me when you could instead focus on Coal or things that matter

And yet somehow bombs seem to grow on trees in the US and UK for dropping on innocent children by the IDF in Gaza.

This ad was a waste of the energy it took to print.

The UK does not sell bombs to Israel anymore.

It's obviously bad that we ever did, but it's not something that we currently do. It stopped a while back, and is probably partly why Israel has become very hostile with Labour/Starmer as of late.

Did they actually stop? Yeah it seems like the UK is further along the process of disengaging but our connections to the genocide of palestinians run so deep it is hard to fathom the US government listening to its people and stopping arming Israel.

It's not printed.

It's on a screen.

Ironic innit?

It is not on a screen.

It is printed with a backlight. You can see that it is just a poster.

backlight

Still a waste though. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

If the internet is demonised with enough propaganda about it being full of porn and bad for the environment, while steadily becoming more and more difficult to access, then the British public will stop knowing about the atrocities Kid Starver is spending their tax money on.

Protesting anything the government disaproves of is a criminal offense and journalists have already been imprisoned over reporting too accurately on the Palestinian genocide.

I get the feeling the internet sanctions and propaganda will just keep coming now till the government can control the narrative and we will always have been at war with East Asia.

Posts should be related to UK-centric news, and should be either a link to a reputable source, or a text post on this community.

Opinion pieces are also allowed, provided they are not misleading/misrepresented/drivel, and have proper sources.

If you think "reputable news source" needs some definition, by all means start a meta thread.

Posts should be manually submitted, not by bot. Link titles should not be editorialised.

Disappointing comments will generally be left to fester in ratio, outright horrible comments will be removed.
Message the mods if you feel something really should be removed, or if a user seems to have a pattern of awful comments.
