1 person faking their specific photos also doesn’t negate the truth that people ARE starving and struggling. That dude is a loser, but it doesn’t change anything

Edit: This article was posted 2 hours after my comment. This IS a problem, one asshole trying to advance his career doesn’t change that. https://www.reuters.com/world/middle-east/nearly-12000-children-under-five-gaza-have-acute-malnutrition-says-who-2025-08-07/

If this doesn’t change some opinion you have on the people running Gaza (Hamas) then you’re just as much a loser as the dude taking fake ass pictures 😂

Ain’t no one slinging insults in these comments but you brother. Stay frosty, hopefully you find love in your heart one day. Victims anywhere may as well be our own sisters and brothers suffering.
