This thread is going nowhere pretty. But if you want an honest answer to this, the answer is obviously no social networks don’t properly represent world issues.

There are a myriad of reasons for this in the case of the Gaza famine some legitimate and some illegitimate, but one I would call fairly legitimate is that the US provides vast support to one side of the conflict as an ally so it is very natural for it to be a hotter talking point than the famine in Sudan. People feel they are complicit in what happens in Gaza.

This is flame bait: the sentence before the one you replied to clearly explains why they wouldn’t - both are tragedies, but the U.S. doesn’t give military support to Hamas or intervene to shield them from repercussions.
