A user on lemmy.world/c/aboringdystopia stated that Jews should be ashamed of themselves for the actions of Israel.

I rhetorically responded “Why?” and reported the antisemitic comment.

Reporting them was deemed “Trolling” by the moderator, who believes there is nothing wrong with shaming all Jews for the actions of Israel because some Jews state they are ashamed of it themselves.

I explained the moderator why the comment was antisemitic. In a twist of events, they then permabanned me, deleted all my posts from the comunity and told me I would feel more at home at .ml.

    You would be allowed to state those opinions if you were Christian during the Crusade of German during the Holocaust

    No. I am neither Christian nor German and I would be ashamed if I was during crusades/Holocaust.

    and are using an accusation in third person

    No. He is saying HE would be ashamed. He doesn’t imply others should be ashamed. Stop making stuff up.

    You asked a question and I already answered, YDI.

    Now, disengage - I do not wish to continue any conversation with you as you lied in your initial post and you are clearly arguing in bad faith.

      Why should he feel shame “if he were a Jew”? Are you saying all Jews are responsible for the actions of Israel?

      I would be very ashamed of myself if I were u/FelixCress.

        Where do you see Felix (or the poster you refer to) claim that all Jews are responsible for the actions of Israel?

        I think you dug yourself in a hole with a reflexive, uncritical accusation of anti-Semitism.

        Although to be fair that seems to the primarily MO of a large portion of individuals/institutions that bring up anti-Semitism.
