Here in India, media is a tool of the fascists. I am ashamed to say it but the concept of journalistic standards is alien to the audience here. The media literally parrots the IOF line, to such a degree of precision that makes me think that I underestimated the sheer evil that can exist in the heart of human beings.
But India is a kind of a special case in the Global South, since its an Islamophobic Hindu fascist state and the preposterous IOF talking points slot well with the racist talking points.
But I am wondering what the situation is like everywhere else. Please fill me in.
Radio stations in some Algerian provinces were unironically playing Hamas songs then putting a news a cut every time Abu Obeida spoke.
Pro Government news are saying “the genocidal war of the zionist entity backed by the west” and are reporting daily deaths and speeches by Hamas Hizbullah and Ansarallah.
The biggest (real) opposition is calling for us to step out of the square of shame and declare war.
