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.

    The State of Israel is the national home of the Jewish people, in which it fulfills its natural, cultural, religious, and historical right to self-determination.

    [Israel’s Basic Law of 2018]

    I don’t see the word “Zionist” there. I see the word “Jewish”. The actions of Israel are therefore by law taken in the name of all Jewish people. And if OP were Jewish, they’d be ashamed of it, apparently. They don’t offer advice or instruction as to what other people should feel about it.

    Maybe you should complain to the Israeli government for conflating Zionism and Judaism, if that’s your issue with the statement.
