by the AA to mask its crimes against the Rohingya community. According to him, the sole purpose of the video was to obscure the reality of the AA’s violence and to manipulate public perception against the Rohingya. He identified both the uploader, implied to be the General and the anonymous interviewer as supporters of the AA, accusing them of collaborating in a disinformation campaign aimed at vilifying the Rohingya and its sympathetic organizations or activists, while concealing the AA���s own atrocities. On the other hand, comments to General’s post, a flood of replies appeared, many of which expressed explicit praise and support for him and, more notably, for the AA. While such comments may appear as spontaneous expressions of loyalty, they must be critically examined for what they implicitly endorse. Messages such as ‘we love the AA’, ‘we fully support AA’, ‘we stand with AA’, or more explicitly hostile remarks like ‘destroy ARSA’ reveal a deeper alignment with the AA’s agenda. They go beyond mere support and signal a disturbing approval of the group’s ongoing violence, particularly its brutal actions against the Rohingya community and any organizations or individuals seen as sympathetic to them. 90
