"They're actively trying to make me reconsider my stance on genocide" = shady psy-op by an evil power that wants to control the world?

[–] GreyEyedGhost@lemmy.ca 7 points 5 months ago (1 children)

It is well known that a number of states sow division in the populace of their enemies to weaken them. Does polarizing hot button issues do that? History says it does.

Does Palestine matter to them? No. Does polarizing the populace of the enemy matter to them? Yes. Are either of the organizations linked above tools of states that would like to harm America? I don't know. Could they, or similar organizations be used that way? Sure.

So every Pro-Palestinian group is a psyop, got it.

Where are you obtaining your information on the genocide?

Sorry, your lack of reading comprehension has no bearing on the facts of what I said.

Which part of the statement sounds like it may be a psyop?

Which pro-Palestinian group do you find most reputable?

I made no statements one way or the other on whether this organization, or any other Palestinian organization was a psy op. Moreover, I specifically said I don't know. What I did say was that promoting a polarizing topic could sow division in a group, making it a viable option for a psy op.
