Context: Some of my normie female colleagues at work were talking about the war and mentioned that you could see messages supporting Palestine in the comment section of big Instagram accounts like Kim Kardashian. This is unsurprising of course but what I find interesting was that even smaller accounts with 0 politics had these comments. This led me to suspect that bot/propaganda accounts might be responsible. I wanted to see how common these comments were so I thought an easy way to gauge would be to look at accounts that are as remote to the subject as possible. This led me to look at Japanese non-political influencers because I figured: the Japanese don't care about this and the language barrier would isolate them. To my surprise, even Japanese accounts had theses pro-palestine comments. Not as many, mind you, and often buried under legitimate comments but they are there nonetheless. Some are from propaganda account like the one I linked but others are from private accounts that look like bots.
If Hamas can get this far, can you imagine the scope of other, bigger propaganda operations like BLM, feminists, etc. I'll repeat what we all know: social media is cancer
Ps: just cause I bitch about Hamas doesnt make this an endorsement of Israel. I hate both camp so sit down @Telia
I can't get that page to load at all.
What browser are you on?
Same here on Brave, even with Shields Down and ublock turned off.
Weird, can you access any other Instagram pages? This is the Japanese post that had the pro-palestine comment from the linked account: https://www.instagram.com/p/CzWTbMEyRzs/
