This means that children would never learn - at least not on their own, via social media - of these atrocities committed by Hamas. That would appear like a net positive for the Palestinian side.

That's where your confusion is. This isn't to hide what's happening to make Hamas look good. This is about removing violent content. What the parent commenter and I are saying is that there's no mention of the violence the IDF are perpetrating, as if it isn't happening.

I've now reached a point where I've said it as plainly as possible. If you're still not able to comprehend what's being said after this, I don't know what else to tell you.
