Hi all, I noticed this community hasn’t been active for a while. Might be a good time to bring it back.

Chances are, you already know what I’m talking about. For those who don’t: the moderators and admins on feddit.org, especially !europe@feddit.org, have been removing comments and banning the users that are pro-Palestine, most of the time without even directly addressing them, just straight to banning.

Check out this pinned post. While a some were legit insults and calls to violence, most were just expressing dissatisfaction and questioning the policy.

While not all of us would always agree on things, we’ve been trying to engage in meaningful discussion even if we’d sometimes end up agreeing to disagree. The same cannot be said on the above community. At this rate, it would become an echo chamber for pro-Israel who’d say anyone disagreeing with them is antisemitic.

    The way I read it, they are allowing discussion of both the policy and Israel in general while following the law in Germany.

    I don’t read modlogs and I mostly ignore people complaining about mods, so I couldn’t say if their bans are heavy handed.
