Overview
Israelis Mocking Palestinians On TikTok Controversy refers to multiple viral videos that circulated amidst the October 2023 Israel-Hamas Conflict in which purported Israeli TikTokers mock Palestinians, often utilizing racist caricatures and bragging about continuing to have power and running water, which were cut off to Palestinians in the Gaza Strip by Israel amid the conflict.
Background
One of the earliest videos of a purported Israeli woman mocking Palestinians was posted by TikToker @eve_makeup.artist in mid-October 2023. She has since gone private on social media, but the video was reposted to X / Twitter by user @arabshawty[1] on October 19th, 2023. The video features the woman applying makeup to look like a Palestinian who has been attacked and is covered in dirt and rubble. The repost by @arabshawty notably featured a direct invitation to harass the creator.

Developments
Over the following days, several other TikToks mocking Palestinians were posted from purported Israeli accounts that have since gone private, though some of the videos were reposted to Twitter prior to them becoming inaccessible.
One widely reposted video came from Twitter user @CensoredMen[3] on October 26th, 2023, which showcased a compilation of TikToks in which Israeli posters appeared to mock Palestinians via racist caricatures. The tweet gained over 45,000 retweets and 55,000 likes in less than 24 hours (shown below, top). On October 26th, user @QudsNen[2] reposted a TikTok from @danaraz.makeup that featured her flaunting basic utilities that were largely unavailable in Gaza amid the conflict, like running water and electricity (shown below, bottom).
🇵🇸🇮🇱 A trend has swept TikTok where Israeli’s mock the appearance of Palestinians, the fact they have no electricity and some even compare them to dogs.
Many of these videos also show parents making their kids take part in the trend. pic.twitter.com/5arRADPIQl— Censored Men (@CensoredMen) October 26, 2023
