#Israel's legislature has voted to close #AlJazeera 's offices in that country. This is a direct attack on freedom of the press and freedom of information--both of which I consider basic #humanrights. #Gaza #FreeGaza #CeasefireNow
@damselfly59 I'm unaware of any instances in which AlJazeera has spread either hate speech or misinformation. If you can show me some it will absolutely change my mind.
@MHS_Jenkins Obviously something in the offing that they don't want reported. Which covers a very broad spectrum for Israel.We'll be bound to see what it is via TikTok eventually I'd imagine.
@FrankCannon TikTok isn't trustworthy, but it is organic up to a point. We'll see.
I'm looking into alternative tech and other modes of news/information gathering. This is worrisome.
@MHS_Jenkins It seems to be the preferred platform for the "most moral army in the world" to keep their fans updated as to which lingerie they've liberated.Among other excesses.🤷♂️
@FrankCannon Neither Israel's government nor Hamas are the good guys here. The American mind struggles to understand that.
@MHS_Jenkins Absolutely right.No such thing as white hats and black hats in the modern age.
@FrankCannon And we had all better adjust our thinking accordingly.
@MHS_Jenkins There are some that are completely incapable of that.Learnt that many years ago.
@MHS_Jenkins hate speech and misinformation isn't free speech though. It would be like Russia being given a free speech pass in Ukraine. I don't support that.
