The only way to stop kids seeing bad videos on the internet is not let them on the internet.

Israel's social media propaganda campaign has been super well-funded and is geared to really make people think that Hamas are the only bad guys here.

Just last night I was watching youtube with my kids and there was a commercial that showed horrible stuff in support of Israel.

Yeah I got those ads multiple times last night along with a random maga conspiracy ad about how a bad event is happening soon and everyone should buy gas masks.
