One of my filter bubbles presents me with something similar to what the parent is seeing, for another datapoint.
There are extremely different narratives which one can be presented with.
In one, the pro-palestine marches have been commandeered by russia/iran and/or neonazis, to the extent of chanting 30's era slogans and marking people's homes based on their Jewishness. The on the ground atrocities and brutal tactics of Hamas are hilighted against the humanness of Israeli victims.
In another, Israel, aided by the US, is committing the systematic genocide of a severely underdefended population and there's an unspoken understanding of how Hamas could have arisen in such conditions. There's a sense that everything Hamas is doing is ineffectual and anyway reactive. The on the ground atrocities pale in comparison to the Israeli-sourced on the ground atrocities due to the imbalance of power and an implied overarching guilt / causality.
