I did before Israel started cracking down on dissenters. Many of the journalists I've paid attention to haven't been posting much lately. Even then, Haaretz has been under fire and threat from the Israeli goverment. Luckily, there are still vocal Jewish and Israeli voices outside Israel, but they're less news and more perspectives and opinions which aren't fit to be main posts in this community. But if I do find a perspective interesting, like how Norman Finklestein relates the attitudes of Palestinians now to the Jews persecuted back in the Holocaust, then I'll find a way to leave it in the comments. :D

Israel also cracked down on Al Jazeera, and many Israelis are now afraid of speaking out against the government and their bloodthirsty supporters.

Here is an alternative Piped link(s):

Piped is a privacy-respecting open-source alternative frontend to YouTube.

Yeah Israel strictly controls coverage of their war on Gaza and subjects all footage to military review. It's fucked.

China isn't in the habit of bombing cities into mass graves so kinda different.
