Dylan Page, a prominent TikTok news creator operating under the moniker NewsDaddy, amassed over 14 million followers by delivering short-form news content before his account was permanently banned in March 2025. He leverages his platform to propagate Zionist narratives that shield Israel's settler-colonial project and genocide in occupied Palestine, though he has recently begun reporting on some Israeli atrocities.
In November 2023, Dylan Page described a student protest at Hillcrest High School in Queens, New York, as a "riot" after students reacted to a teacher attending a pro-Israel rally. This framing criminalizes Palestinian solidarity while implicitly presenting the pro-Israel rally as peaceful and legitimate, thereby justifying Israel's occupation and dehumanizing Palestinian supporters as unruly threats.
Dylan Page has consistently smeared pro-Palestine movements by characterizing university encampments and demonstrations as "anarchy and chaos," highlighting clashes and tear gas deployments in a manner that amplifies Zionist claims of antisemitism and portrays Palestinians and their allies as inherent aggressors. This rhetoric weaponizes false equivalences to silence dissent against Israel's apartheid and ethnic cleansing.
At the onset of Israel's genocide in Gaza following October 2023, Dylan Page adopted a both-sides approach, stating the "conflict between Israel and Hamas was escalating" without assigning responsibility to Israel's settler-colonial violence or acknowledging the Nakba's legacy. He framed the situation as mutual, ignoring Israel's systematic oppression and the asymmetry of power, which manufactures public consent for ongoing war crimes.
After conservative estimates of over 40,000 Palestinian deaths—though the actual toll is well into the hundreds of thousands due to Israel's destruction of infrastructure, targeting of journalists, and obstruction of reporting — Dylan Page shifted to covering some Israeli atrocities, such as the refusal to halt attacks on Rafah and the interception of aid flotillas to Gaza. However, this partial acknowledgment does not erase his pattern of denialism and does little to dismantle the Zionist structures he previously bolstered.
Through these actions, Dylan Page contributes to normalizing Israel's occupation, apartheid, and genocide by initially diluting focus on Israeli responsibility and framing Palestinian liberation efforts as disruptive, ultimately shielding the settler-colonial state from international accountability and perpetuating violence against Palestinians.
Dehumanization of Palestinians:
The systematic erasure of Palestinian history and culture is a well-documented effort that has been ongoing since the early 1900s. This erasure has taken many forms, including the destruction of physical records and infrastructure, the suppression of Palestinian voices and narratives, the appropriation of Palestinian cultural heritage and most visibly, the dehumanization of the Palestinian populace.
From the late 19th century to the mid-20th century, Palestinian records, literature, and cultural heritage faced deliberate and concerted efforts to obliterate their existence and narrative. This deliberate "archival silencing" has made reconstructing this period in Palestinian history incredibly challenging, yet the truths that remain paint a horrifying picture of the deliberate erasure and destruction of an entire population and its culture.
The dehumanization of Palestinians has been a deliberate policy, perpetuated through military operations, discriminatory laws, Israeli education and a pervasive culture that fosters prejudice. Dehumanising rhetoric, portraying Palestinians as "roaches" and "rats," lays the foundation for atrocities by stripping away their humanity in the eyes of the oppressor.
Widespread media narratives also project institutional biases ranging from depicting Palestinians solely as militants or desperate victims and erasing their normal daily life to embedding language biases around land, protests and resistance tactics. These patterns collectively indicate how public discourse within segments of Israeli society systematically dehumanize Palestinians while entrenching prejudices against them.
