Impressionable teens look for their values ​​in the wrong places. This is nothing new—but with the growing power of influencers and celebrities on Instagram and TikTok, it’s easier than ever to get the wrong answers to some of life’s biggest questions.

These influencers have educated the public with the “truth” about the holy war between Israel and Hamas, thereby saving the world from the war’s grave geopolitical consequences.

Jackson Hinkle has been growing his following since October 7 by pushing old-fashioned anti-Semitism on the masses, going so far as to directly equate Israel with ISIS. X-Post. In another instance, he made numerous claims that greatly downplayed the damage from the October 7 attack, including downplaying by half the figure he cited of “nearly 2,000.” Even if more recent counts put that number at about 1,200, Hinkle’s figure of 900 fatalities versus nearly 2,000 was originally a big lie. It remains a big lie.

“Israel lied about EVERYTHING while committing a grotesque genocide! Share the TRUTH!” he wrote at the end the postreportedly citing a Haaretz investigation. The Israeli newspaper quickly and firmly refuted Hinkle’s claims, but his post spread like wildfire anyway, garnering 5.3 million views, 96,000 likes and 53,000 reposts at the time of this article’s publication.

While Hinkle denied the deaths of Israelis, another influencer denied that they were raped during the October 7 attack. Sarah Magdy – who has worked for the BBC – claimed there was no evidence that Hamas raped women, adding that “someone is lying” about the rapes, which even the UN recently said were happening. “reasonable reasons” to believe that they took place. The UN also found There are reasonable grounds to believe that hostages may continue to suffer from conflict-related sexual violence.

But like Magdy, her commentators thought they knew better. One of them claimed: Magdy’s TikTok “changed me forever. New Zealanders 🇳🇿 stands for Palestine 🇵🇸.” Another commentator said Israel and the US were committing “genocide,” while another called on Hamas to take “as many hostages as possible.”

It is no wonder that the anti-Israel crowd feels they are on the right side of history when influential figures like Simi and Haze are on the side of God.

The liberation of Palestine is “a call to more faith in God than ever before,” they wrote in a Instagram post“for those who are FREE are deep enough in their spiritual path to take an uncompromising position on something.”

Which god do Simi and Haze believe in? The Christ And Jewish Gods are firmly against their cause, and these sisters do not believe in Allah. Far from being “the FREE,” these influencers are at the mercy of the social validation they receive when they repeat the popular lies of woke religion to share with their 1.7 million followers at the time of publication. Instagram users reacted to the above post by performing the rituals of wokeism. Users gave hundreds of “likes” to anti-Semitic comments, including “From the river to the sea.” 🇵🇸“ and “Free the Elders from the Apartheid State!!!”

If you don’t call it a sin, you are calling anti-Semitism a moral wrong that no self-respecting influential person would condone, let alone promote. As the prophet Isaiah wrote in his book in both the Christian and Hebrew Bibles: “Woe to those who call evil good and good evil, who put darkness for light and light for darkness, who put bitter for sweet and sweet for bitter!”
