    I actually wonder why they haven’t blocked telecom coming in and out. Everyone would still kinda know they’re doing a genocide, but it would be harder to visually cover, and they might be able to hide details.

      Doesn’t really matter when anyone can just go on Google Maps and see nearly every single building in Gaza has been destroyed

      Pretty impressive that they had Hamas in each of these buildings, eh?

      Obligatory fuck Israel.

        Oh, it matters. You think most people are going to look on Google Maps themselves?

        Quick, gut-punching visuals and stupid soundbites are the name of the game in public opinion. Even if news agencies were to show this map, it’s way more abstract and remote. The impact wouldn’t be the same as a starving, swollen baby.
