These boards are being flooded with persistent disinformation regarding the Gaza situation.

Those of us who wish to engage in humane discourse regarding the plight of Gazans are being constantly shouted down by probably paid operatives who seek to dismiss, deflect and downplay the human rights disaster that is unfolding in Gaza and the West Bank. Constant accusations of being Hamas supporters and callous disregard for the feelings that people are experiencing when being confronted with distressing information. Much of it could be deemed islamophobic. There is no room for nuanced thinking coming from these posts, just the all or nothing narrative which is practically shoved down our throats with patronising responses.
I have posted the above link in order to prove that these activities are taking place in a coordinated and determined manner before anyone accuses me of the unmentionable.
Constant flooding of the boards with support for a far right, human rights abusing government would not be tolerated under usual circumstances.
There are probably people here who have friends, relatives, loved ones trapped in Gaza or struggling to live in the West Bank. How are they supposed to feel or respond? Is it healthy to assist in the portrayal of the UK as an islamophobic, hate filled country who are happy to stand by and watch Gazans being obliterated? The govt and opposition are already doing a good enough job.
As for the propaganda. People here aren't stupid or callous enough to fall for it. It's not 1989 and people no longer only read one source of news from a dog eared newspaper laying on a pine coffee table.
