I mean, one could argue that multi billion dollar American social media companies are also American media. And I definitely think 90%+ of people in North America with a newly found strong opinion about Israel/Palestine got this new position from Instagram posts and similar.
It’s actually pretty interesting for anyone who has been following Israel/Palestine for the last few decades to watch as people move through the stages of discovering new bits of the history…and then posting about it the entire time as if they are experts with super valuable information to share. Even when they are contradicting their own post from like 2 days before.
