Social Media Activism is Not a Solution

[00:03] Palestinian prisoners yesterday, if it goes unpunished, we'll all be in deep trouble, including you and me. They killed them, all be in deep trouble, including you and me. They killed them, hanged them, executed them right before our eyes, and then they shoved the videos in your face. They're sitting there drinking and laughing after they killed them,
[00:18] filming these videos and showing them to you, trying to send you a message. They don't care if 10 or 15 of them die, or if 1,000 or 2,000 more die. For them, it's just a matter of time, a mere separation. These people are doing all this
[00:33] to send you a message: you're worthless. Watch what we're doing to them and then come and see what you'll do. Watch what we're doing to them and remember it well, because we'll do the same to you. They doing to them and remember it well, because we'll do the same to you. They keep doing this, and the more
[00:47] they do it, the more they trust us. Their arrogance increases, and the more they become arrogant, the more we see this, the more we fear them, and the more we keep giving them more importance than they deserve. What they are doing is what they want to convey. This is the first point I
[01:01] want to talk about. The second point is the videos, the youth saying, "Let's make videos, let's like, share, and so on." I appreciate all of this, I'm not belittling it at all, on." I appreciate all of this, I'm not belittling it at all, but I'm sorry, this isn't a solution. Three-quarters
[01:15] of the people who talk about the issue and make videos, they talk about the issue and make videos, they actually make them primarily for the purpose of reaching a audience, for the purpose of being seen, and for other disgusting reasons that I do n't want to talk about, but that's not my topic.
[01:29] I'm even talking to the people who are well-intentioned and make videos, and the likes, saves, and shares. What do you want to say? You want to reach everyone? Everyone knows what's been happening to them since October 7th, three years ago. Foreigners and Egyptians alike, you'll make videos in English,
[01:42] Italian, Hebrew—everyone knows everything. What are you trying to do? What are you trying to achieve? We're like someone who's been raping and killing his family outside his home, and then he's hanging out of the window, telling people what's happening, thinking that the louder he shouts and the more he
[01:58] talks, the more the situation outside will be resolved. No one will come and get you out of this mess. No one will save you. We're like someone pushing against a wall, thinking it's a solution. This wall, or this pacifier they've given you to vent your anger on, is what they're doing on purpose
[02:13] so they can tell you in the end, "This is all you're capable of. No matter what you do, this is all you're capable of. A few videos, and you'll be stuck with them for a while. We already know that. We've memorized it." We've seen it a lot, and then what? We're
[02:25] facing a rock. This rock gets stuck, and we look to see what life lies beyond it. I think a large percentage of us know the truth, but what's the point? After we see this life, what's the idea? Will
[02:39] we take a step and solve it, or will we go back and stand in front of the rock as if we're defending ourselves while we're afraid? rock as if we're defending ourselves while we're afraid? What will happen in the end? That's the whole problem.
