It seemed... inorganic. And I'm not sure what the gold trim is on those posts. Other posts didn't have them.

    The yellow means the post or comment has received "gold." Basically, people paying to boost or highlight the post. Screams bot activity to me, or at the very least a very unsubtle propaganda post made by some underpaid Israeli keyboard warrior trying to further associate anti-Zionism to anti-Semitism.

      Yes I have heard of this. They don't even need to be Israeli.

        The pictures themselves are fine. It's the fact that the posts are very similar, paid, and pushed to the front of a feed in a time when an ethnostate wearing the Jewish identity is carrying out a genocide on a captive population. It feels, as OP said, inorganic.

        Of course the pictures could also be read as a reminder of what Jewish resistance really stood for, which would conversely carry a distinctly anti-Israel sentiment, and the optimist in me wants to believe that. I can't see the comments on the posts, so I have no way of knowing for sure.
