Yes. Per The Intercept (internal Meta docs): Israel's gov't requested removals of posts supportive of Iran, critical of Israel, & missile impact footage during the recent war. Meta complied with some.
Separately, leaked data showed Meta acted on Israeli requests to remove over 90k posts (mostly anti-Israel/pro-Palestine) since Oct 2023, at ~94% rate. Standard gov't flagging process; Meta says it reviews by policy.
So when Russia attacks Ukraine… the world is outraged and it’s a war crime. Trump attacks Venezuela… and its “liberation”? Israel attacks Palestine and its “self defence”? Have you people heard yourselves?
#QatarGP 🇶🇦 || David Croft: “When you've excelled as much as Lewis Hamilton has, it must be hard in these moments to not just remember the good times, but remember that, you know, you are the GOAT, you are the greatest."
"It is painful to hear but he is still Lewis Hamilton. He is still a seven-time world champion, and he is still, I think the greatest driver we've ever seen in this sport but that's just my personal opinion. I might go and tell him that a bit later on."
It’s interesting that the fake “white genocide” narrative in South Africa only seems to gain traction in the U.S, and specifically within the Republican Party. The rest of the world understands the reality on the ground of the massive inequality and the legacy of apartheid in SA.
I am not afraid of you , I am different . You are hated internationally hated .
it is not because you are Jewish it's because you slaughter innocent people .

Imagine if you controlled the media, Hollywood, Acedamia, the music industry, social media, Ai, the search engines and our politicians and everyone still hated you
If you look not at the whole genocide but just narrowly at the number of starving Palestinian civilians that Israel has murdered at these food traps, that number alone is now bigger than the number of Israeli civilians killed on Oct. 7.
forcing a child to identify his religion by the proxy of his full name in a country where boys get lynched for much less than a name. genocidal reporting
There is no end to Israel’s bloodlust! Never thought we’d witness in real time the workings of such a cancerous & evil entity .. always imagined that was all over with the Nazis and King Leopold’s crimes in Congo but noooooo… Israel is updated version of humanity’s basest self.
For those who continue to deny that Trump and the MAGA GOP's objection to asylum-seekers and refugees isn't racist, check out which group, out of all the conflicts on earth, Trump has made a very special refugee resettlement for.
Yep.
White South Africans. Beyond parody.
President Cyril Ramaphosa: “We won’t be deterred, we are resilient, we will not be bullied. We shall stand together in defence of our national interest and our sovereignty.”
Being sanctioned for being against APARTHEID and GENOCIDE makes me proud to be SOUTH AFRICAN. History will remember when a small nation refused to cower to the USA, that we didn't just defeat apartheid at home but apartheid abroad. WE WILL NOT BE BULLIED
The idea of Afrikaaners willingly leaving their estates and holiday homes where they have cleaners and gardeners and get to chill by the beach to go be cashiers at Walmart and live in a shitty state apartment in the US is actually so funny 😭 someone needs to make a show
As a tourist in South Africa, you can travel the whole country w/o interacting with Black South Africans. The hotels, restaurants, bars, and tourist hot spots are full of white people. You see immediately who has wealth & who doesn't. White Afrikaners aren't persecuted. My God.

Government of South Africa notes the USA Executive Order
The government of South Africa has taken note of the latest executive order issued by President Trump. It is of great concern that the foundational premise of this order lacks factual accuracy and fails to recognize South Africa's profound and painful history of colonialism and apartheid.
We are concerned by what seems to be a campaign of misinformation and propaganda aimed at misrepresenting our great nation. It is disappointing to observe that such narratives seem to have found favour among decision-makers in the United States of America.
It is ironic that the executive order makes provision for refugee status in the US for a group in South Africa that remains amongst the most economically privileged, while vulnerable people in the US from other parts of the world are being deported and denied asylum despite real hardship.
We reiterate that South Africa remains committed to finding diplomatic solutions to any misunderstandings or disputes.
