I looked up the article (here in case anyone else wants to read it), although I would not give them more clicks honestly.

It’s absolutely despicable. They updated the headline. But nowhere in the article do they mention what’s what.

In a video shared widely on social media and reviewed by CTV News Toronto, a man holding what appears to be a nail gun can be seen grabbing a person wearing a keffiyeh.

No mention who the attacker is (Zionist) nor the victim(s), just "wearing a keffiyeh" as if the general public knows what this (either a Palestinian or pro-Palestine protester).

This is no coincidence and has got to be the worst piece of "journalism" I have seen since Oct 7.

Edit: they updated the article again, making it marginally better, but the bar is on the floor here…

The "real estate event" is selling plots in occupied Palestine for future settlements. Nice to know that Keller Williams is facilitating genocide.

Yeah that is really unfortunate. I just sold my house last week with Keller Williams. If I had heard about something like this before I signed my paperwork I would have dropped them like a hot rock.
