🧵With three billion monthly users, Facebook is the world’s largest media platform. This gives whoever controls it enormous power to shape narratives worldwide. Image
The US government has consistently used this power to influence Facebook and censor and delete viewpoints it does not like. Image
Last August, Facebook deleted nearly 8,000 accounts and 1,000 pages that spread positive messages about China and criticized US actions against Beijing.

Facebook did not claim these accounts were linked to the Chinese government, and so it was merely their opinions that triggered their removal.Image

🧵The BBC’s reporting on Gaza has been called out repeatedly by both the viewing public and internally from staffers, which leaked internal emails have now provided further information on. From sanitised and misleading headlines to outright double standards, the British national broadcaster has consistently presented a narrative favourable to Israel.Image
Leaked internal BBC emails presented “evidence of a collapse in the application of basic standards and norms of journalism that seems aligned with Israel’s propaganda strategy.” Image
Spreading atrocity propaganda hoaxes goes without questioning. Image

🧵Following the attempt on Donald Trump’s life, political leaders have joined a chorus of denunciations, all agreeing that political violence has no place in America. Yet the U.S. itself has constantly used assassinations and other forms of political violence against its enemies all over the world. This includes Donald Trump himself, who ordered the assassination of Iranian leader Qassem Soleimani.Image

🧵The images of a defiant Trump, surrounded by bodyguards, his arm raised in the air, have gone viral, with many supporters claiming that they represent the most iconic, powerful pictures of all time.

But this assertion was strongly challenged by many on social media, who suggested their own, more powerful political images – ones with a far more progressive, radical or revolutionary undertone to them.
