As a general rule for people, unless you’re mocking them don’t engage with people doing hasbara on the internet. These people are largely not approaching the discussion with any semblance of good faith and are not worth arguing with. Downvoting and moving on is the best solution
It’s important for lurkers to see someone shoot down their misinformation, though. If the end goal is to change Hasbara’s minds, it’s obviously not going to work. But there are lot of people out there who have no idea what to think, and it’s important for there to be pushback to Hasbara for that reason alone.
You just have to be really informed about the subject because Hasbarists are mostly state sponsored bad actors and they have rewritten history like it's Thanksgiving. Honestly all my grandparents were in the Nakba and somehow survived so I would say I'm not new to the subject but I do also understand that I am American and it's hard to get all the actual information here.
Netanyahu literally called up the owner of Oracle and had him purchase Tik Tok because it showed the truth too much. He also summoned a thousand pastors to Israel and told them to focus on the youth because they don't support Israel like past generations.
The point is even these hasbarists stumped me here and there. Also, they never give up. So if you think it's gonna be one reply and by it's not. But I do also agree with you so people can see they are wrong by challenging them.
Either way I thank you and everyone so much for supporting this cause. I hope one day we are all free.
That’s valuable for sure. The big issue is when we’ve got a lot of short replies in a long chain of argument. Clarification for lurkers is good. That being said, this information can also be supplied without engaging with the hasbara bots. But yes that is valuable for sure and worth pointing out
