So glad zionists don't control the narrative this time.

It seems like the internet is doing it's job, for once.

They do sadly. The media has repeated Israeli lies again and again even when provided with no proof of their claims. The whole baby beheading thing got spread so much that Joe Biden ended up calling it out and later clarified that they don't have proof as well.

And Reddit has been banning pro Palestine subs and users from yesterday.

I sincerely doubt they're banning "pro-palestine" subs and users and are banning the ones supporting Hamas and mindless violence. Reddit is far more anti-zionist than any other social media, for example.

Not to say that the Israeli propaganda machine isn't running, but there is definitely a portion of antisemitic backing for Hamas (not Palestine) that's going to get places banned for not following reddit's sitewide rules about hate (just have to use some dogwhistles to get around it tho).

While it's still evil as fuck to see so much both sides garbage, I have yet to see anyone outright supporting the Zionists in this.

I think saying Israel has a 'blank check' to do whatever they want to Gaza is 'outright supporting Zionists.'

Yeah, you're right.
