Hillary Clinton is facing a deluge of criticism after stating that young Americans’ growing support for Palestinians is influenced by “totally made-up” videos on TikTok and suggesting that American youth - including young Jews - “don’t know history and don’t understand” Israel’s war on Gaza.
Speaking on Tuesday at a summit hosted by the right-wing Israeli paper Israel Hayom in New York City, the former Democratic presidential candidate expressed her concerns that “smart, well-educated young people” in America and around the world are getting a lot of their information, including about Israel and Palestine, from social media platforms like TikTok.
The former US secretary of state described it as “serious problem for democracy”, remarking that when she attempted to have “reasonable discussions” with young people, it was challenging because “they did not know history, they had very little context, and what they were being told on social media was not just one-sided, it was pure propaganda".
Get bombed and tortured in an Israeli concentration camp you fucking bitch
Make like a toad and croak. Nobody likes you Hillary.
There’s a large gap between disliking and wishing for death, lol
If you have the power to influence politics that will lead to the death of innocents, I think it’s okay. Don’t be a fucking political figure if you can’t handle the heat, Clinton. It’s like saying “omg don’t bully celebrities”. They literally put themselves in public view. Of course people will say shit. This isn’t news. What else were they expecting? Everyone is nice and friendly? No, you come to expect that in the public eye.
No its because Tik-Tok (until it got acquired by Oracle) didn’t ban Palestinian content like FB, X, and YouTube.
It’s infuriating that you can’t even find even half decent footage of any warzone on literally any media outlet because for some magical reason it gets deleted almost immediately on social media, which leaves it in limbo on whatsapp forwards.
i mean in a way tiktok is to blame or views on palestine… because tiktok was the first time you could see actual on the ground reporting from gaza instead of the sanitized version of the conflict in the us media. this is a good thing.
She blamed Bernie Sanders for her failure and got with a dude in the Epstein files. Why would anyone trust her judgment??
why is one of the very few people who could possibly lose to that disastrous GOP clown show allowed to speak about anything still‽
Hillary Clinton is a pedophile
Go fight Donnie over Bubba’s dick and shut the fuck up. Genocide is bad, mmmkay? Can’t believe its hard to grasp.
It’s only hard to grasp because her and the entire politician class have been receiving
donationsbribes from Israel for decades.Yes American politicians value money and shareholder value more than human lives. They prove it every single day and not just foreigners either they hate the US citizens just as much.
I have the feeling that she targeted too the same preys
The former US secretary of state described it as “serious problem for democracy”, remarking that when she attempted to have “reasonable discussions” with young people, it was challenging because “they did not know history, they had very little context, and what they were being told on social media was not just one-sided, it was pure propaganda".
Look, lady, at some point the prior history doesn’t matter. The history we’re experiencing right the fuck now is a single day, a single attack, by Hamas responded to by two fucking solid years of calculated extermination and nullification of the Palestinian people.
It doesn’t fucking matter what happened thirty god damned years ago when the average age in Gaza before Oct 7th 2023 was fucking sixteen! Guess what Hillary you fucking idiot, 16 year olds haven’t been alive long enough to have had anything to fucking do with that history!
The fucking audacity of her ass to be talking about the “history!”
Of all people, this bitch deserved to lose to Trump. She even used her connections to promote him in the media because she was fucksure she would end up in the general election against Jeb Bush. That’s what you get for fucking over Bernie Sanders!
Israel is an illegitimate state that has behaved monstrously from the beginning. So even if you read the history you’ll realize that Israel is the problem and always has been.
Agreed. These “centrists” can go sit on a cactus
We need to stop calling them centrists and call a spade a spade. They’re conservatives, plain and simple.
I don’t even like using that stupid left-right sliding scale to describe American politicians anymore. That’s not what most of these people are. They are just conduits for oligarchy to filter money from the working class to the elites and don’t hold any real personal ideology beyond that. They campaign on divisive social issues but for the majority of them that’s really where it truly ends within the context of political ideology as a working class man OR as someone who studies the philosophy of politics understands it.
You’ve successfully and correctly identified the problem with using the “left-right sliding scale” to describe America as being that there is no left.
Something something a liberal something a fascist bleeds
Well I mean even if you do look back historically Israel took the land from the Palestinians and displaced like 700,000 of them.
That is why that war will never, ever end. They stole that land. It wasn’t theirs.
I like how they leave out that part of history though. Don’t wanna talk about that or you’re antisemitic which is absolutely bullshit.
Steal peoples land and then act all surprised when generations of them want you to die and get their land back. Seems simple enough.
Prime example of how boomers lack media literacy skills.
Ah yes, because some historical context will certainly justify the genocide.
Even then it doesn’t. Palestinians have been there for thousands of years. They didn’t just appear overnight. They’re the remnants of Canaanites and Jews who stayed after they were exiled. Many of them adopted Islam and Arab culture during the conquests. Arabs didn’t come in and wipe out the indigenous population and replace them. Same with Egyptian, Libyan, and Turkish people. That’s why they’re not all the same and have drastically different cultures and languages, and not just standard Arabic.
Historical context show that palestinians was victim of settler colonialism and ethrnic cleansing
I think the Google Maps view of the whole fucking Middle East is why people support Palestine
“There didn’t used to be a hole there…something ain’t right”
Better yet, just look at historical maps of the region and see how long the Zionist effort has been going on. She’s out of touch and THATS WHY SHE LOST TO TRUMP.
Just had a look, unfortunately google maps doesn’t look like it has been updated with the more recent photos. The only indication that something is amiss is how pretty much everything is “temporarily closed.”
Sorry, misunderstood you
She should Pokemon Go the fuck out of politics.
More like Pokemon Go to the grave
She’s not in politics. No one voted for her, how sad is it say you lost to Donald Trump?
I mean, literally three million more people voted for her, the somewhat lesser of two evils, than for Trump in 2016, but because of the Electoral College it didn’t matter.
literally three million more people voted for her
not how Presidents are elected.
Yes, I understand that, but I was responding to your statement “no one voted for her”.
Hillary Clinton is literally a psychopath
That’s weird because I’ve never been on that app, am older, and probably hold some similar views. So where are my views coming from? You just have to have a heart and then you can see things correctly. It’s only fair to hold standards against everyone. Israel doesn’t get a pass. Not on morality.
