        There are a few that repeat IDF propaganda regardless of how much evidence ppl point out to debunk them. Some I think are ex-redditors that haven’t had pushback until they moved to Lemmy. I think many of the latter either reconsider their view when presented with good sources, or leave Lemmy for a more pro-israel space.
