Young people attending a New York City anti-Israel rally have admitted that they learned to hate Israel by watching pro-Palestinian videos on Chinese-owned app TikTok and Mark Zuckerbeg’s Instagram.
More than a dozen young protesters who skipped school to join an anti-Israel rally in Manhattan on Thursday told the New York Post that their opinions about the Israel-Hamas war were shaped mainly by China’s TikTok and Facebook-owned Instagram, as well as their teachers.

Another 17-year-old who identified herself as Adama told the New York Post that she follows Palestinian accounts on TikTok who are based in Gaza, saying, “Places like CNN and other mainstream media are not posting about it.”
St. John’s University student Ravia Sidhu and her 19-year-old friend, CUNY student Zarif Islam, told the outlet that they attended the Thursday rally after what Sidhu said was “a lot of doing our own research” — which included watching videos on the Chinese app.
Anti-Israel protestors were reportedly seen at the Thursday rally tearing down posters of Israeli hostages currently being held by the Palestinian terror group Hamas, with others praising those who did.
Some protestors even compared the surge in anti-Israeli sentiment to the Arab Spring of 2011, in which Twitter and Facebook galvanized protesters to take on regimes across the Middle East.
“I think social media has played a role, you saw the same thing with the Arab spring,” 30-year-old Sebastian Grant, said. “That started a swell 10 years ago and you’re seeing the same thing now.”
Meanwhile, 25-year-old Joana Sa Dias told the New York Post that the content she has seen on Instagram “opened my eyes.”
“I’m literally going on Instagram hour to hour to see the updates,” she said.

While pro-Israel videos exist on TikTok, they appear to be less popular than the pro-Palestinian videos on the Chinese app, with the top result for the search phrase “stand with Palestine” having been viewed nearly 3 billion times as of October 26, the Post reported.
Meanwhile, the top result for “stand with Israel” was only viewed a little over 200 million times.
Anti-Israel influencers have also gained a stronger following since the October 7 Hamas terrorist attack that left more than 1,400 Israelis dead, and also involved rape, bodies being set on fire, and kidnappings.
It doesn’t matter which platform they’re using, Islam is winning. Gen Z would be happy to submit to Sharia.
What a surprise they learned about it on foreign hate apps that Trump tried to restrict but libtards refuse
It’s just as well that we all realize hate is a lethal force in our world. It got us where we are, at the verge of world war 3.
America’s young people....
Many teenagers may not know what the American Revolution was all about, how a city differs from a state, or how to locate the United States on a map of the world. Undergraduates at Texas Tech asked their peers questions like “Who won the Civil War?” and got answers like “The South.” Jimmy Kimmel showed randomly selected adults a blank map of the world and asked them to identify just one country. Not a single person in the video, including at least one with a college degree, was able to comply. True, in both instances, the creators of these videos presumably left out individuals who could answer the questions. Even so, it’s clear many Americans are unaware of basic facts about the world.

H A T E has become very fashionable.
It is a big business.
It should be called BigHate.
All of a sudden Hate Crimes are allowed. Well, special kinds are allowed and promoted (it seems?).
Very depressing.
So Zucker-Jew hates Jews?
It would clear up their pronoun confusion, pronto.
“a lot of doing our own research” — which included watching videos on the Chinese app.
A generation of morons is well along being bred and cultivated.
Yeah Islam is not going to tolerate any of that crap.
These are the same youths who also protest against misogyny?
And march for the rights of every sexual weirdo group in the US? Flying the rainbow flag when possible?
But now they’re marching FOR cultures that strip women of rights and that throw gays off tall buildings?
Something is really wrong in our country...
I don’t know how many of them would even survive it, much less real communism.
“Pro-Terror Teenagers Admit They Learned to Hate Israel on China’s TikTok, Zuckerberg’s Instagram”
Pro-Terror Teenagers Admit They Learned to Hate Israel on Satan’s controlled Chinese TikTok, Zuckerberg’s Instagram
Don't bother with any printed translation since the 1950s or so. They have been altered to make Islam look like a "religion of peace".
IMHO, the best translation is for free here:
Lemmings are easy to train no brains just follow the herd.
In today’s society, it is not enough to simply not be a racist, bigot, whatever, etc...you have to be anti-racist! Anti-bigot! Anti-whatever! You MUST support, with all your might, those who claim to be oppressed - PERIOD!!
These kids have been programmed to believe they MUST seek out and destroy all those who do not give full-throated backing for anyone who claims to be oppressed - PERIOD! Anything less is the same as being that racist, that bigot, that whatever, etc...
The “Palestinian” people have done one thing better than digging tunnels under major infrastructure and hiding weapons inside schools and daycare centers...they have created an oppressed people of martyrdom narrative which way too many people believe without looking at the history and the truth!
Since the “Palestinian” people are categorized as “oppressed” these young, mush-brained, meat puppets simply scream what they have been spoon-fed and robotically revolt against “oppressors”...truth be damned!
