if you look through this thread, which this man made to cast doubt on the story about a man whose newborn twins were killed while he went to laminate their birth certificates, you can literally see exactly the same rhetoric people use on here:
just general accusations like "this seems fishy/his ear lobe doesn't look the same from this photo and this photo/who laminates a birth certificate in a war zone/look at how this gfm is raising money but it's based in cleveland?/the idf denies this" and he does it all with a veneer of concern trolling like he's actually just worried about the people who feel bad about this story, the exact same thing zionists here do
but this is a real story. it was reported by multiple outlets. there were eyewitnesses to the strike. there were video interviews with the father.
beyond that, his wife jumana was in contact with Heal Palestine, an american organization headed by steve sosebee (who founded the Palestine Children's Relief Fund) and had a well-followed facebook page where she documented her life, pregnancy and announced her delivery of her twins
even that wasn't enough for the zionist! "what kind of mom spends her entire day on Facebook posting and answering people?" he writes on a tweet that has 2.1k likes
obviously (i've said this before) practice caution when you look for places to donate because there are people trying to take advantage of palestinian trauma, make sure they are vetted and reblog them from users you trust, or donate through verified aggregators like gazafunds.com if you find the process here intimidating
but practice even more caution when you uncritically reblog users who accuse all palestinians of being scammers or engage in genocide denialism. more than once i've seen these "concerned" bystanders lie about the conditions on the ground in gaza, belittle the scale of israeli atrocity, or overtly imply palestinians are inherently untrustworthy. this is not a coincidence: it's deliberate. as OP says, it's murder-by-proxy and no matter how convincing their skepticism seems, you should not take the consequences of uncritically sharing this lightly. real people are dying, under siege and starvation, and the people capable of doing that are also engaging in constant propaganda and disinformation to make it possible.
the user from the thread above is literally a hasbarist, he is a zionist who doesn't give a shit that he's lying about a man who is sobbing in front of the whole world because he lost his two newborn children and his wife. he is actively engaged in manufacturing consent for palestinian genocide and israeli reputation laundering. it seems abhorrent because he does it so blatantly, but even the seemingly empathetic liberal zionist users on here are doing the same thing he does. don't do their job for them.
