Funny how red triangles are over tanks while blue ones are over buildings

Read this in a 90s stand up comic voice.

Speaking of which, isn't Seinfeld currently in range of certain ordnance?

OMG yes! He’s meeting with hostage families in Tel Aviv. “What’s the deal with white flags? Your son was carrying one and they still shot him!”

It is kind of astounding that Israel has 0 good combat footage for their videos at this point. It is all blowing up buildings from a distance, not an enemy in sight.

It is all blowing up buildings from a distance

That and several videos where you can see ground troops proudly shooting at random walls and furniture

Yeah the only time I see an Israeli defeating an enemy on camera that isn't a school or hospital is when they're bodyslamming Orthodox Jews protesting Netanyahu and kicking them on the floor while they don't fight back

I think even they know they'd lose even more support if they released the footage of their soldiers mowing down unarmed civilians of children and old ladies, but who knows, they're getting desperate.

This really illustrates how appropriation works - it adopts the imagery with no understanding of the purpose. The triangle exists because Hamas are distributing active battle footage from relatively low quality cameras, and targets and actions need to be clearly defined during freeze frame zoom ins for people to understand what they're seeing. The footage it's used on is also styled after MLG compilation shit because it is IRL MLG compilation shit.
Israel looks at this and sees the meme triangle that points at things that are about to blow up, so steal it, and the meme mlg style, so steal it, but leave behind all the substance. They're taking clear views of buildings being destroyed from a safe distance, without a human in sight, not the one clear view of a tank as brave handful risk their lives to take it out.

Back in high school we had to make a short film based on any scene from the Shakespeare play we were reading. I didn’t read that shit, so I flipped to a random page and it landed on the one where some dude was hiding his relative or friend’s wife at a castle while waiting for him to arrive, but he was assassinated.

I had to drag it out to at least 10 minutes and make it interesting, and eventually found the perfect angle. It took about 3 days to shoot and 2 days (including an all nighter) to edit. When I submitted it, it turned out only like 3 other groups submitted their work. I went first and everyone loved it and thought it was hilarious.

The next day, the rest of the groups submitted their stuff. And one of the groups’ movie literally copied my scene lol. And I know they did because it wasn’t that important or iconic, just a random murder scene. But they didn’t understand the scene or my decision making process, so it was just like 60% a reshot of my movie but they tried to sneak in their own “ideas”. It made no coherent sense because their “ideas” didn’t have any narrative or cinematic relevancy to their stolen scenes, so it felt like a dozen people were directing a single moment.

They got a 0 because the teacher saw what they were attempting lol

A whole ass “country” has the same integrity as high school plagiarizers

Combat-Footage-Crosshair-Star of David is some shit I couldn't have come up with in my wildest parody of raging antisemites

How do you not realize how bad the optics of the pulsing star of david over some random, contextless building being blown up is. This is within spitting distance of the fucking jewish space lazer

they can't do anything right lmao
