    The chuds are still there, but the comments and posts are full of stuff you’d see here like:”actually the creation of Israel was an antisemitic act that was the culmination of trying to get Jewish people out of Europe” and stuff like posting that IDF guy who attacked a protestor in America.

    Part of me chalks it up to chuds accidentally seeming to be on the right side because of their bigotry and still in the wrong of course. But it seems like a shift has actually occurred.

    It really seems like a lot of “apolitical” types who would frequent such places are genuinely waking up.

    Is this a “yes, hope exists” moment or or am I missing the forest of hate that these trees could be a part of?

      There’s quite a few subreddits that fly under the administration radar but are full of mods and users with good takes on Palestine. A good one is /r/lostgeneration. Nominally it’s a millennial-bitch-fest kind of place with lots of that bullshit anti-boomer generational-war crap that’s a distraction from the real war (the class war). But when the topic turns to Palestine, they’re firmly on the correct side of history.
