Title says it all. In combination with the recent post about somebody getting banned from the same comm, there’s a trend starting to emerge.
Edit: Sad but unsurprising that this immediately got downvoted by a German user
Edit 2: Looks like this was just one of many such posts that got locked without any reason given. Notice a pattern in the topics locked?
The feddit.org admins are planning to make an official announcement on how they see the situation and there was an internal discussion about this where it was agreed to wait for that official announcement. This is the main reason these topics were closed.
I am curious about the contents for the announcement.
German law requires us to supress any criticism of the genocide perpetrated by isralies BC we only killed the Jews during ww2
Why would an instance hosted in Austria have a comm declare that they follow German law… for a Europe-centric subreddit? Either way, posting news about the genocide of Palestinians is hardly denying the existence of Israel.
You folks should see all the comments in the butt-hurt Ich Im echten Leben thread on the previous PTB post. The amount of excuses being made there for being called out as pro-genocide is Wahnsinn.
Naja. Deutsche sind ja Deutsche wieder. See you soon on the next ich_iel thread about this post.
When I look at their sidebar and unless there is some additional missing context on ban evasions or or the news sources of the topics against the rules (e.g. Al Jazeera on Israel) none of these things are against the rules.
The one I see that is in the same topic area is “we follow german law; do not question the statehood of Israel”. I added my own emphasism.
My interpretation is you cannot advocate for the eradication or dismantling of the state. But then this is over moderation on any topic on Israel from any source to probably prevent any discussion and then no moderation of the comments are needed. I wonder if my being an anarchist is a ban-able offense!
This smacks of PTB.
Oddly, feddit.org is not located in Germany. It’s hosted in Austria.
Can someone with a moral compass make another europe channel for people who actually respect human rights?
There’s [email protected]
That’s pretty blatant ptb
This just reinforces my previous assertion that the mods of [email protected], or at the very least some of them have a serious Zionism problem. Actually considering the amount of Zionist apologists in the other thread I would wager that Feddit.org has a serious Zionist problem.
I mean just read rule 4 of that comm. It says “don’t question the statehood of Israel” in the rule banning hate speech, ostensibly to comply with German law. Germany has no such law (yet). They’re at the very least running defense for Zionists. I got warned by the mods to delete or edit parts of my side of an argument where I argued for a one-state solution over there the other day.
What the fuck is going on with [email protected] ???
I just checked and I appear banned there too although I am not sure if it is related to the same idiot(s) banning users for supporting Palestinians.
Thanks. That means fuck all, they can use it as pretty much anything.
Seems like they’ve been banning people who don’t cater to or go along with their Zionist apologia. They’ve also been locking and removing many such posts in support of Palestine, or critical of Israel.
I got banned there for calling out german regime being Nazi nepo babies.
Too much censorship… Just block it.
The originazi supporting neonazis.
Apologies, off topic, I love your username
You clearly don’t understand. Opposing the genocide means you support the Palestinians committing their own genocide on the Zionists!
Instead of, ya know, giving the Palestinians dignity and emancipation, hoping for a future where they can live side by side or at least in their own sovereign states.
Did they even pretend that there was a reason?
No, and I updated the main post with more examples
This does not look good.
