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

    Yeah, .ml has deliberately unclear rules, allowing mods to ban anyone who disagrees with them for vague reasons, or no reason at all. Anyone disrupting the echo chamber is liable for a banhammerin’.

    It is pretty funny how they can’t even run an online community without censorship and bans, though!

      We went over this already: literally no one can run a freeze peach zone without it metastasizing into a Nazi bar.

        You can do “I ban Nazis” without “I ban anyone who disagrees with me”. Unless you think anyone who disagrees with your politics is a Nazi, which is funny in a different way.

      Your instance has censorship and bans too, and also, just two weeks ago I saw people criticize .ml for not banning this exact user.

      It doesn’t matter what we do or don’t do, y’all will always find a reason to shit on us.

      You know you’re describing lemmy world and piefed social more than ml?

      I wouldn’t say this is much different on other instances. Instead they write a trillion arbitrary rules, which they may or may not follow depending on how they feel that day.
