"I Ain't Reading All That; Free Palestine"
The meme enrages Israel supporters because Israel apologia depends on mountains of verbiage to spin obvious atrocities as reasonable and appropriate. At some point the kids noticed this was happening, and started dismissing all the narratives.
...Without mountains of narrative, all you’ve got is a nonstop deluge of raw video footage depicting the blatant genocidal criminality of Israel. No narrative overlay is required atop a video of a baby beheaded by Israeli military explosives. It stands on its own. You’d only need narrative to explain why the footage of the headless baby doesn’t say bad things about the side that’s dropping the bombs.
..Manipulators understand that they can use narrative to promote material agendas if they can get people to believe those narratives, and it enrages them when people handwave away the narrative and stick solely with the raw data of material reality. If you’ve based your life around trading empty narrative fluff for real material resources and gains, having your narratives dismissed can feel like holding a huge pile of currency that suddenly got devalued to zero. Of course the manipulators would be upset about this.

There's a difference between that being their actual train of thinking, and just not arguing with someone who's pro genocide.
Like, I run across a lot of accounts. And give them a shot to talk in good faith.
But there's people out there who want nothing else but to argue. They have no logical consistency and will just keep saying things, and after you point out why they're wrong, drop it and pick a new one.
It gets fucking exhausting, and isn't ever going to be productive.
So I just started blocking them and it's made Lemmy so much better.
There's a very good chance the person in the screenshot is at the same point. They're just tired of people defending genocide, they know facts and logic won't get them to stop, and interacting with someone would just be a waste of time.
So...
