I think those spread Russian propaganda. I can see why the Russian dictatorship would want people rising up against dictators shot but it's not representative of general support for palestinians.

She was highly retweeted during the biggest Gaza discussion days. But no true Scotsman I guess. That's just one example off the top of my head. Again I'm not chasing down all the social media. Go read comments under the released videos coming out of Iran. Go read the comments under anti-regime Iranians pleas. Go google the Palestinian protests for people holding up signs supporting Iran, like the example I gave.

I feel I gave plenty of examples, from actual support at actual protests up to a major western newspaper talking about how people react, to specific people doing exactly what I said here. If that isn't enough you are intentionally being blind to it.
