@AJEnglish

An article by @AJEnglish describes 'Digital Apartheid' as social media companies 'reinforcing Isr*el's erasure of Palest*ine'.

Unspeakable violence is being committed in Palest*ne and the oppressors there are doing everything in their power to suppress the truth.

Traditional and digital media are under attack. The truth is being hindered, it is being blocked, solely to protect the interests and aims of Isr*el.

As an international community, this is a moment where we can band together and fight for those whose voice has been taken away.

Social Media algorithms are being used to silence people from speaking out against the violence being committed against Palestini*ns.

We too have the power to play with algorithms. We can work around them and work through them and these tips will help you do that!
