AltMedia
This community is a mirror of the AltMedia subreddit at https://old.reddit.com/r/AltMedia.
Until January 2nd, 2025 the 'WorldNews` subreddit, with 40 million users automatically subscribed, had an 'Israel at War' livethread constantly at the top.
This community was founded to dissent from this forced perspective, and present the Palestinian and anti-establishment position in general.
This community is 'AltMedia' in the Mearsheimer and Walt sense. Not the Richard Spencer sense.

Being real, when it comes to the photos only, the Vietnam photo is not a usual thing. In terms of how it conveys the horror of the moment, what images we have of anti-palestinian atrocities just aren't as effective as that one.
There are pictures and footage of people burning, but they just aren't as compelling as photos.
The images of children dying of starvation are more compelling, but the entire world has seen so many images of starving children that they don't have the same impact they might have fifty years ago.
People are just worn out from the horror of it all. The emotional well isn't dry, but the rage caused by the ongoing genocide can't be sustained.
pictures aren't as compelling as photos? What are you talking about?
You know, I had realized that you missed the emphasis and came back to explain, but if you don't understand the concept in the first place, that's on you
Those are synonyms.
They're used in different places to keep from using the same word over and over again
