Tensions in the Middle East: A Look at Online Satire and its Impact. Recent social media trends show a rise in satirical content depicting the ongoing conflict between Israel and Iran. One such video, created by Ci James, uses humor to portray a fictional escalation of the conflict. While fictional, the video reflects real-world anxieties and concerns about the potential for wider conflict. The video's popularity highlights the public's interest in this topic and the role of social media in shaping public perceptions of geopolitical events. The use of humor in such videos allows for complex geopolitical issues to be presented in an accessible and engaging way, sparking discussion and debate among viewers.
