That’s mostly the internet though. If I talk to my friends and almost all my colleagues, they overwhelmingly and strongly hold these two views. For instance, at the lunch table at work (about 8 ppl there, somewhere in Europe, during a discussion about Trump) I uttered the phrase “I think we need to start viewing the US as an enemy state under the current administration”, fully expecting to set off a fierce discussion. Instead everyone was like, “yup, sounds about right” and carried on with their lunch. Point is: talk to people outside the internet and they may surprise you.

Yeah I think it's due to Russian influence on social media. Hamas were used by Russia to weaken a key US Ally. So Russia has always pushed pro palestinian talking points which makes them Saints in some people's eyes. Fuck Russia and fuck Israel. May fascists die a painfull death everywhere.
