The @CCDHate's recent campaign to #DeplatformIcke shows how important it is for social media giants to follow their own rules to prevent hate speech spreading.

It's time for @Twitter, @Facebook and @Google to endorse anti-racism policies and definitions and draw clear red lines.

The @nytimes recently ran a glowing profile of Twitch streamer Hasan Piker.
What didn’t make the cut?
His antisemitism, support for terror groups, and unapologetic propaganda. 🧵 Image
@nytimes The Times called him “a progressive mind in a body made for the manosphere.”
What they left out: Piker has a long history of antisemitic rhetoric. Image
@nytimes The Times framed Piker’s hate as mere “criticism of Israel” and “norm-challenging.”
He called Orthodox Jews “inbred.”
That’s not dissent—it’s bigotry.

Louis Theroux’s new BBC ‘Settlers’ documentary claims impartiality. What it delivers is a slick propaganda film: Israel as aggressor, settlers as sociopaths, Palestinians as voiceless victims. Let’s talk about what Theroux really chose to show—and what he left out. 🧵
2/ October 7 is barely mentioned. When it is, it’s framed as a pretext for settlement expansion. A massacre becomes a motive. Civilians butchered in their homes are brushed aside to serve Theroux’s storyline.
3/ He interviews Israeli “critics”—activists who say Israel never wanted peace. Not one mention of the many peace offers Palestinian leaders rejected. It’s not an exploration. It’s a rigged debate.

🧵 1/ The @nytimes just profiled Twitch streamer Hasan Piker, nephew of Young Turks founder Cenk Uygur. Apparently antisemitism runs in the family—not that you'd know it from this glowing piece labeling him a "progressive." Yes, the guy who called Hamas massacres "resistance." Image
2/ The NYT goes to great lengths to sanitize Piker’s bigotry, claiming he "criticized the Israeli government" and "challenged norms." Apparently, calling Orthodox Jews "inbred" and dehumanizing a Jew who disagreed with him as a "bloodthirsty pig dog" are just norm-challenging. Image
3/ NYT calls Piker’s antisemitism mere "diatribes against the Zionist movement"—an absurdly tame way to describe a man who excused Hamas's rape and murder spree on Oct 7, saying "Palestinian resistance is not perfect." Apparently mass rape is a minor misstep to NYT’s new darling. Image

Hamas built an underground city. We built the map.🧵 Image
Our new tool geo-locates 37 miles of Hamas’ tunnel network using open-source data—marking the first interactive map exposing the terror grid beneath Gaza.
Hamas spent 15 years and $1 billion creating this underground empire—built under hospitals, homes, schools, mosques, and graveyards.
Israel gets blamed for destruction.
But Hamas built terror into Gaza’s civilian infrastructure.

How does a publicly funded outlet like @abcnews get away with broadcasting this Easter-week pile of propaganda?

Let’s break it down — because reporter @MattDoran91 clearly needs a crash course in journalism, not just social media scrolling.
2/
ABC reports that Christians were “corralled” and “beaten” by Israeli police outside the Church of the Holy Sepulchre — all apparently based on one viral video Doran spotted on social media. Image
3/
Doran claims Palestinian Christians were “pushed, shoved, and threatened.” Based on what?

What didn’t make it in? A police statement. Or the viral posts debunking earlier footage. Or the weeks of planning to safely host thousands at the Holy Fire ceremony.

🦁 ZIONIST BEASTS?
From bees to boars, sharks to spy eagles—some media outlets and influencers are convinced Mossad has turned the animal kingdom into a covert ops unit.
Let’s look at some of the wildest animal conspiracy theories.🧵 Image
🐝 Conspiracy #1: “Israelis poisoned Palestinian beehives.” Image
🐕 Conspiracy #2: “Israeli police dogs raped a Palestinian prisoner.” Image
