A network of accounts on X using stolen and possibly AI-generated images coordinated to engage with accounts supportive of Israel

Remember when you just needed to count teeth to detect AI images? Those were good times.
Lemmy feels miffs that Hasbara does not waste resources on here
Oh no, not pro-Israel. How awful.
I mean, the AI aspect of these is really quite obvious when you look at the hair. Especially the guy with the long beard.

Fixed that for you.

And? It’s only because of the Oct 7th operation that most of you even know about any of this. The US government has been supporting this vile little white supremacist project since the 70s, and you “voting harder” isn’t going to change that.
Fuck Israel. Fuck the US, too.
You don’t have to be your government, you know.
.
You don’t have to. That’s why we say, “Fuck Israel.”
.
Why?
Is there an aspect of this genocidal white supremacist colonialist project that you identify with?
Didn’t see the “one of the” there and was about to lose my faith in humanity.
Even more.

I wonder if they’re on here too?
This type of nonsense is happening everywhere online. Real people who are organically participating will almost always engage on a wide variety of topics and issues; any social media account on any network that spends the majority of it’s time focused on a single politicized issue or viewpoint can be assumed to be a sock puppet or a shill.
In short any account that hyper-focus on a single issue or viewpoint for more than a day or two is likely not organic and if it is organic then it’s likely toxic; either way you should avoid them.
Lying and misportraying themselves in social media is nothing for a country were most people are fine with murdering tens of thousands of children because of their ethnicity.
This is nothing given the depths of their depravity.
