The D QuuuuuillApparent unwritten rule of "No posts about Palestine" on [email protected]
mrdownThat a scummy move from the mod. I made a new community where both siding occupation and genocide comments get removed
[email protected]
Which two? There’s three mods on [email protected]
Also I’d recommend the following comms as being pretty good:
I don’t fully promise they’re good as I don’t usually track this stuff super closely
/edit/: added the quokk.au community since people here seem to like it

ah! i see
From globalnews
This type of comment is why I decided to create a new community for news. Instead of criticizing Trump, some people still cry about democrats losing the election. Those type of comments would directly be removed from my community and after 3 deleted comments it’s a ban
Just from an outside perspective:
you’re playing the same game die a different side. What kind of consistent ruleset warrants a delete and ban for this?
Power tripping for the right cause is still a powertrip.
白浆领主I expect we will see mrdown posted about frequently on here for being a PTB.
Why should anybody tolerate people defending settler colonialism , occupation, genocide etc?
Because anything can be framed negative and without transparency about your personal ruleset on what those empty words mean it’s just Fox News brabble.
It’s not about tolerating intolerance, not at all. It’s about transparent consistency. That’s what preventing the powertrip: rules that you create AND THEN OBEY. Doesn’t matter what those rules are. But if you’re definition of occupation suddenly matches Medicaid I’d the mrdown fan club then you need to support people discussing it.
That’s the whole difference.
Btw your sentence a bit changed is what the trump goons actually use at the moment: “why should anyone tolerate criminals?”. And those fuckers just declared anything they don’t like “illegal”.
That’s what I’m asking: that everyone has the space to grow. That’s why I recommend you to create transparent rules that you obey yourself: to not become like those shitheads. Because they are full of people absolutely sure if themselves with no way to reflect, no way to think.
Actually it is you who use trump and maga rhetoric. Trump and maga are champions of claiming to be for freedom and speech yet censor other.
Trump definition of criminals is so ridiculous. Israel is objectively supporting genocide and settler colonialism we have ton of idf whistleblower, human right reports including israeli ones , isrseli leaders genocidal statements. Same apply to russia
Oh. I misjudged you, apologies.
So you’re a shitlib echo chamber? hard pass.
Eugene V. Debs' GhostIf I wanted that, I’d go to lemmy.world!
It’s like saying banning neo nazi or defending Hitler make me an echo chambers
you want a news community where nobody can criticise the DNC for the terrible policy decisions that lost them the harris is not a LIBeral at all, lol.
Unruffled [they/them]Let me get this straight. Do you want a news community where nobody can criticise the DNC for the terrible policy decisions that lost them the last election, and which they seem determined to carry through into the next election? I mean, have any Democrats have even admitted Israel is committing genocide in Gaza yet? The official party line continues to be full throated support for Zionism from both sides of the aisle.
If you’re planning to go down that road you should just call it DNC/Hasbara approved news or something, so folks know what they are getting.
There’s a reason leftists don’t bang on about Trump all the time. It’s because he’s a lost cause. He’s a literal fascist. Nobody on Lemmy needs convincing Trump is the worst US President in history. Imo convincing Dems they should lurch left instead of right (for once) could help win them the next election. But they just don’t want to listen, don’t want to change, and seem intent on ontracising the left instead of taking on board perfectly legitimate criticisms of the party’s leadership and policies.
The first post i removed was someone defending Harris in relation to the genocide. I allow opinions, i don’t allow people defending objective terrible things like arming israel and support the genocide and settler colonialiam
Ok maybe I misunderstood your comment then.
I’m biased towards [email protected]
Blaze
Oh of course it’s another goat comm
Diva (she/her)lmao classic
What’s a goat comm?
Goat from ShitJustWorks, someone who is “highly interested in extremism” to use their own words. MeanwhileOnGrad is their main claim to fame here, which is an attempt to document the things Tankies talk about.
It has been a host to users using Nazi dog whistles. Goat was on Voat, the Nazi clone of reddit made when Reddit banned some alt-rignt community, and got banned from it twice.
Also tried to force guro (gore art for sexual stimulation/pleasure) onto some communities.
goatThere have been no nazi dog whistles. But there has been antisemitism, one of which comes from a user active in this community.
In this screenshot the user deleted their account of one-to-two years after I questioned why their response to antisemitism and holocaust denialism from Hamas was to shout zionist.
I moderate [email protected] very strictly when it comes to dogwhistles and hate speech.

Nooo the people in an open air prison bombed for 2 years by a “jewish” states are “antisemitic”?
Totally the same thing as being nazis. They kinda deserved the bombing didn’t they?
What about that one user for months kept saying “degenerate roaches” for months on end?
He was banned for a week, with the condition he does not use that term
Now, a personal request, can you stop calling me a nazi? And my community nazis? It’s extremely hurtful. I have spent years challenging extremists of all kinds, from nazis to tankies to QAnons to religious fundamentalists. I have been banned from many far-right sites and communities for speaking against them. I helped shut down Ruqqus and /r/uncensorednews, which were crawling with neo-nazis. To then be called a nazi myself is deeply hurtful and untrue
You’re worse than a nazi. You’re the centrist who would still stand on the fence as the air filled with burning flesh smell.
You’re a nazi who supports the genocide of Palestine.
No I don’t
How do you shamelessly lie about the meaning of zio
Did you not read the screenshot?
The user was insisting on using specifically “zio” – I offered them a chance that they didn’t know about “zio”, gave them a chance to use zionist or any other phrase, but they insisted on using the term coined by David Duke, leader of the KKK.
Zio is simply an abbreviation of Zionist . Just because kkk used the same term wrongly doesn’t mean that people saying zio support the KKK. Even the term antisemite was corned by someone who hated jews and conservatives hijacked the term woke so should we also stop using them. What a ridiculous claim you are saying
I’m not the one using the exact same terminology that the KKK uses. I even said you can use zionazi, zionist, or whatever you want, but don’t specifically use ‘zio’
I recall that this community was upset when a user used the word ‘degenerate’. If we can’t use degenerate, we most certainly cannot use zio, or exclusive phrases that racists and white supremacists use.
<!–StartFragment–>
Anti-Semite was coined by Wilhelm Marr a jew hater. Nobody in his right mind would think you should not use it to refer to jew haters . Same goes with zio people use zio as an abbreviation of zionist

whats with the fragment stuff here?
Some weird stuffs voyager client add sometimes.
Well what did you copypaste to cause that?
How about adressing my arguments?
I don’t think it’s appropriate to take an argument from months ago into a fresh thread.
It is ok to expose your hypocrisy since you are a mod in the problematic community and refuse to remove the other pro genocide and settler colonialism mod
disengage
Your ‘whatabout’ argument does not suddenly neutralize any or all dog whistles and make them OK to use.
There is no whatsboutism in my comment. Zio is an abreviation to zionist as simple as that
Your comment boils down to ‘what about this other word?’. If you remove that part your comment has zero substance.
So goat is a person. A shite person, but… I see.
I’m not a bad person, Eugene lies about me a lot, I don’t know why.
You are. You’re a genocide propagandist who would still support israel if it wasn’t necessary to you to pretend otherwise to keep spreading their propaganda.
I see you make lots of claims about this, but have yet to see any receipts about these “Dog whistles” on MWoG
Why would they post the dog whistles on the terrible mwog comm?
The Claim: “There’s Nazi/Racist dog whistles posted on MWoG”
Me: “I have yet to see the evidence of The Claim, despite seeing The Claim numerous times, please provide your evidence”
You: trolling attempt
Meanwhile the person I asked for evidence of their claim: crickets
You: trolling attempt
Oh we’re going this way, got it.
You saying you are not seeing it both does not mean it isn’t there and slightly tells on yourself
The Claim: “There’s Nazi/Racist dog whistles posted on MWoG”
Me: “I have yet to see the evidence of The Claim, despite seeing The Claim numerous times, please provide your evidence”
I can’t see dog whistles on the comm im always on
Again telling on self
The burden of proof lies with the claimant, always
I can’t see the dogwhitsles
