Link to post with banned comment
The lemmy.ml admins couldn’t handle someone pointing that any conversation about Palestine should be centered around the Palestinian victims undergoing a literal genocide and not on Judaism, because in the present day Jews are just privileged white people who aren’t facing any systemic oppression but are even systemically privileged.
An instance pretending to give a voice for the the Global South in the end just censors non-Eurocentric opinions to the point of censoring for genocide.
Apparently they didn’t instantly delete the comment after banning me but did so hours afterwards, probably because others agreed with me.
This part of the post pertains a feddit.uk post which I assumed was a crosspost but this was not removed by the lemmy.ml admin and this part can be ignored. Leaving it here for reference
The admins feddit.uk mods also removed a post from my own community because the post cites TheDailyMail and that is not a “reliable source” despite the headline being completely verified including a link to the UK government report itself. Might as well introduce MBFC next.
Here is TheGuardian saying the same thing: Government expected to accept recommendations of review, which found three in five Jewish students had experienced prejudice. And here is an even more extensive debunk of the report found on the “ultra radically left” /s Hasan Piker subreddit
Hexbear and lemmygrad are the other two, but I hardly hear about them anymore which makes me wonder if they’ve just been almost universally defederated to irrelevance.
.ml gets more of a pass being the home base of the Lemmy devs
Probably because piefed doesn’t federate with them
I don’t think hexbearer was ever widely federated. There was a time lemmygrad tried. But despite being run by many of the same people as Lemmy.ml. it wasn’t the official Flagship server. So, many people had no issue with blocking it early and often.
Hexbear is widely defederated, you’ll find it on the blocklist of many big instances. Much of it is from years ago, back when reddit made their API changes and there was a large amount of activity in the lemmy fediverse along with a bug where their emojis were being rendered HUGE for everyone else, and their culture of the time of posting scandalous pictures and emojis were basically being shouted at everyone. Since then, just a lot of bad behaviour from users that got further blocks (like from lemmy.ca).
I don’t ever remember the Emoji thing. I remember grad posting almost exclusively in oversized image macros. But yeah that’s been years ago.
you wouldn’t because .world defederated from hexbear before anything was ever federated.
they have some great ones
We might be talking about the same thing really, it was years ago, but basically the constant big pictures were very disruptive.
hexbear is mildier than the other 2, but they get annoying when you point things out to them that agrees with thier “cause”.
