Dear fellow Global South users, how does your mainstream media cover Israel's genocides? (lemmygrad.ml)

Here in India, media is a tool of the fascists. I am ashamed to say it but the concept of journalistic standards is alien to the audience here. The media literally parrots the IOF line, to such a degree of precision that makes me think that I underestimated the sheer evil that can exist in the heart of human beings.

But India is a kind of a special case in the Global South, since its an Islamophobic Hindu fascist state and the preposterous IOF talking points slot well with the racist talking points.

But I am wondering what the situation is like everywhere else. Please fill me in.

From my perspective, the mainstream sentiment is varied. The constant pro-palestinian protest are weakening the zionist narrative. Lots of outspoken zionist(or the ones that are within my circles) have shut their mouths and moved on to showcasing their wealth.

Adding to see the perspective of @bennieandthez@lemmygrad.ml to enrich this discusion
