Ok, Mondoweiss has an article on these "protests". A lot of rhetoric, over complicating what you clearly see on the Electronic Intifada investigation, at min 12:21. Protesters are shouting against Shiites, a Fatah chant. Someone affiliated to Mohammed Dahlan (senior Fatah) has been seen at the protest, identified by Israeli media. Protest or Fatah hatred for Hamas? I go with Electronic Intifada. Anyways, here's Mondoweiss:

There was an article on Al Jazeera claiming that there had been spontaneous anti Hamas protests in Gaza and main stream media apparently also feasted on it.
Nowhere else on independent or Arabic media in English could this be found. This is the first mention and tangible explanation of the incident.
It was Fatah related, aimed at Shiites and Hamas. Hence the mention in Qatari funded Al Jazeera. Qatar's Sunni and US ally

'Francesca Albanese brilliantly swats away Channel 4’s peddling of Israeli propaganda. UN expert Francesca Albanese just spoke to Channel 4‘s Krishnan Guru-Murthy. And as the presenter attempted to ‘both sides’ Israel’s genocide against Palestinians in Gaza, Albanese stopped him in his tracks.'

'Zelensky’s hostility to peace triggers White House meltdown
Long rewarded by Washington and NATO for undermining diplomacy with Russia, Zelensky grew confrontational -- and told outright falsehoods -- upon hearing the opposite from Donald Trump and JD Vance.'
A long read, but worth it, to remind people of the truth, not the lies from the #mainstreammedia and our politicians, who also support the #genocide in #palestine

The BBC asked minority groups what they thought of the BBC:

"Participants...viewed journalism as a form of oppression that had the same impact on their lives as the police. Journalism in general, and the BBC in particular, they said, felt like an arm of the state."

I sincerely believe that the reason the mainstream media gave much less attention to Mastodon than they gave to Threads or BlueSky is because the other two are centralized platforms that can potentially be bought out, whereas Mastodon isn't, which means it undermines their primary agenda of controlling the narrative.

> ... two other.. problems.. one.. the Internet, has been.. addressed and reviled.. But.. that mainstream media itself so sedates and misleads its readers is, in my eyes, a huge factor in how we got here and a huge hindrance in how we get out.
> That AP story I started with--it's like so many stories we've seen about all things Trump with, maybe, the exception of January 6th coverage: it plays down the criminality and the impact..
