I was just perusing the modlog when I noticed something interesting. Apparently posting news about Gaza/Palestine is not allowed on !worldnews@sh.itjust.works. I decided to check the side bar and didn’t see anything. The only pinned post also does not indicate that this is not allowed
edit: the mod in question is @Eyekaytee@aussie.zone . sorry for not originally tagging. i hadn’t realized it was a rule that this must be done. i thought it seemed inappropriate since i was trying to initiate a conversation about a community’s rules and culture rather than start drama about an individual
I’ll save us all some time. They’re a huge Israel supporter and the majority of their comments from the past 2 weeks are zionist bullshit.
Also a weird post comparing the Kimmel cancelation to Roseanne’s, and saying Kimmel’s statement about kirk was vile.
im curious, but should there be an israeli-safespace on lemmy?
I don’t think there should.
Israel already has its safespace, it’s called the media.
how do you mean?
Israel proponents control Paramount, Reddit, Meta, CBS and now Tik Tok. What do YOU mean? What tf do you actually mean?
That sounds an awful like jews control the media
ZIONISTS.
Do you understand that this is a word with a different meaning from Judaism? Like, if I said “Theocratic-Christian”, is your first thought “Sounds like a conspiracy meant to smear all Christians.”? Or do you have the critical thinking skills to understand that there is more than one sect of any religious belief? Because the other option is that you are intelligent, but just like to bend words in order to score semantic victories while your soul withers under the weight of the horrors which you choose to defend. That can’t be it, I don’t think you’re an evil guy,
Jews have been here for thousands of years, half of my family was Jewish, everyone aside from my great-grandparents on one side died in the camps. We don’t control shit.
ZIONISTS are religious ethno-supremecist racists who have been around for roughly 100 years. My grandmother is older than Israel. And the outlets which I named are clearly and objectively controlled by ZIONIST interests. If you don’t like that, do something to change it instead of just pouting when others mention it.
If you hear Zionism, and conflate it with Judaism, that’s not anybody’s problem but yours.
Just to throw this into the mix, 95% of the Zionists I know personally are evangelical Christians with no Jewish heritage whatsoever.
Their particular death cult requires the existence of Israel as a state for their end-times prophecies.
They have no particular love for Jewish people – and, in fact, they frequently employ antisemitic language and stereotypes – but they absolutely love the Israeli government.
Exactly this. They would make kinda jokes about Jewish stuff. But they want the State of Israel to exist.
Neo-Nazis and White Supremacists used zionist to disguise their antisemitism. The belief in a “Zionist-Occupied Government” or in your case, control of international media, is an old antisemitic conspiracy theory.
Yeah I know, it’s a huge problem right now. Antisemitism is rising in a dangerous way and if you want to blame someone, his name starts with B and ends in enjamin Netanyahu. Or “The Decades-Long Funder of Hamas” as he is sometimes known.
That’s what I mean, this conflation with insane Zionists like Bibi or Ben Givr or Smoltritch or Larry Ellison or settlers in the West Bank with the religion of Judaism is the #1 cause of increasing antisemitism. Nothing even comes close. When humans see evil, we want it to stop, go figure huh?
Like you said “Sounds a lot like ‘jews control the media’.”. Yeah, because Zionists are making it their entire goal to do that. They are talking openly about it. Not Jews, Zionists. Listen to Bibi’s cringy-ass recent speech about controlling the media narrative. They are saying that this is what they are doing. They are intentionally making the conflation so that people like you, can come on here and claim that anti-zionism is antisemitism. In this way, they can continue their genocide. I made my choice, because I am an adult. I don’t care what they call it. Have you?
We see every day unspeakable atrocities, and the leaders of the nations responsible for this go on TV and tell us all that it is hateful to Jews if we stand against this evil because the perpetrators are Israeli. So people are given the choice, by Zionsts, to either stand against evil or be labeled antisemitic.
Do you see the problem here?
Israelis are waking up too, you ever wonder why there is always a magic reason to postpone elections whenever Bibi is on the block? He will never stop war by choice. If it stops, he retires in prison, and he knows this. He is using you.
They mean there’s already a lot of pro-israel sites.
they mean the big subreddits and tiktok and facebook.
sounds like a conspiracy

If they want their own genocide denial safe space, they can create one. It may be tough, as I know they are more accustomed to moving into spaces where people already are, but I’m sure they can manage.

Same answer. They can create a new comm, not settle an existing one.
If you’re asking whether that hypothetical comm should or should not exist? I don’t mind either way as long as it’s not used to pump out disinformation about the genocide.
do you think there should be one for Nazis?
That’s shit.just.works
no
