Narratives are created by more than just that, including what is reported on, how frequently it is reported, and what is not reported on. See Chomsky's "Manufacturing Consent" to learn more.
It promotes the existing power structure, which some people think is no bueno.
For example, if you post this:
https://edition.cnn.com/2002/US/01/30/ret.axis.facts/
the bot will say it is a highly accurate source with highly factual reporting so people will tend to believe with certainty that the U.S. should invade Iraq.
Probably comes with a picture and backstory of Prænh too, lol.
Good, one should always refer to the Ministry of Truth before deciding what is true or false for The Party.
I think what's missing here is the existence of legal precedence. The UN had an arms embargo on apartheid South Africa starting in the 70s, so there's precedent for that.
Fun fact: Israel violated the South Africa arms embargo. Big time.
Most anti-BDS laws have taken one of two forms: contract-focused laws requiring government contractors to promise that they are not boycotting Israel; and investment-focused laws, mandating public investment funds to avoid entities boycotting Israel.
Very strange to have government contractors and managers of public funds swearing an oath to protect a different country. Similar situation in the UK. Interestingly enough, this is another case of "birds of a feather flock together":
On May 17, 2019, right-wing populist party Alternative for Germany sponsored a bill "Condemn the BDS movement – protect the existence of the State of Israel" (19/9757) to ban the BDS movement nationally.
The UN had an arms embargo on apartheid South Africa starting in the 70s, so there's precedent for that.

The proposal says, "The Israeli Knesset firmly opposes the establishment of a Palestinian state west of the Jordan
Between the sea and the Jordan there will only be Israeli sovereignty... I'm not a call to genocide you are!
From the late nineteenth century onwards pictures and postcards often depicted a rebuilt Jewish Temple on the Temple Mount, sometimes next to al-Aqsa Mosque or the Dome of the Rock and sometimes in their place.
they scream "self defense" hard enough while bribing politicians everyone will keep supporting their Genocide.
And should you happen to be a supporter of human rights and international law they will scream "antisemitism" hard enough until you lose your job.
Their source is an Israeli organization, lol. There are so many parallels between Israel's theft of Palestine and the Europeans' theft of North America, "their education/religion/culture is terrorism" is just another one on the list.
Reading about the current events got me looking into the history of Palestine and Israel, and I noticed a lot of Israel's politicians (like Yitzhak Shamir, Menachem Begin, and Ariel Sharon to name a few) were Zionist terrorists (using the word literally, not subjectively) since before the establishment of Israel. The groups they belonged to, like Haganah, Irgun, and Lehi have been designated terrorist organizations by the United Nations, British, and United States governments, and
Albert Einstein, in a letter to The New York Times in 1948, compared Irgun and its successor Herut party to "Nazi and Fascist parties" and described it as a "terrorist, right wing, chauvinist organization".
The Zionists have explained their view as follows:
Neither Jewish ethics nor Jewish tradition can disqualify terrorism as a means of combat. We are very far from having any moral qualms as far as our national war goes. We have before us the command of the Torah, whose morality surpasses that of any other body of laws in the world: "Ye shall blot them out to the last man."
and
Late in 1940, Lehi, having identified a common interest between the intentions of the new German order and Jewish national aspirations, proposed forming an alliance in World War II with Nazi Germany.[22] The organization offered cooperation in the following terms: Lehi would rebel against the British, while Germany would recognize an independent Jewish state in Palestine/Eretz Israel, and all Jews leaving their homes in Europe, by their own will or because of government injunctions, could enter Palestine with no restriction of numbers.[32] Late in 1940, Lehi representative Naftali Lubenchik went to Beirut to meet German official Werner Otto von Hentig. The Lehi documents outlined that its rule would be authoritarian and indicated similarities between the organization and Nazis.
It just gets worse the more you look into it, but it does give important context to the current genocide in Gaza, and to the decades old conflict in general.
