  • This is exactly why he got in trouble, because he couldn’t just put the word “most” or “many” in there, and tried to paint all Jewish folks as genocide-supporters

    He specifically said 80-90%, he also called them Zionists not genocide supporters which has a broader definition, anywhere from supporting Israeli state in Palestine to believing Jewish people should have some kind of sovereignty.

    Nobody seems content with critically thinking - “who would someone behave in this manner?” is a question you should ask yourself

    You and the mod are distorting this persons comment from what he said with this manor of thinking. Then you want to block the discussion from even happening that can disqualify it. Just let him get either downvoted to hell or dunked on in the comments. I dont see the point of the intense censorship on behalf of these ten fifty whatever percent of american jews that will be slighted that their religion has been conflated with zionism when there is literally a star of david on the f35 bombing children in now lebanon.





  • The potential indictment of the 94-year-old former ​president of Cuba and brother of Fidel is expected to focus ​on the downing of aircraft, the official said on condition ⁠of anonymity. CBS previously reported that the case relates to Cuba’s deadly ​1996 shootdown of planes operated by humanitarian group Brothers to the Rescue.

    Jeez they are really fishing for literally anything.

    Can we indict Donald J Trump on triple tapping 175 school girls and parents with tomahawk missiles? What about allowing a white supremacist biker gang operate a concentration camp in Gaza? What about all those little girls he raped with Epstein?



  • First, I’m new to actively using lemmy, so I’m gradually learning the etiquette on here, and how it differs from other forums. Also, I did not know the downvote button is disabled on your instance, so thank you for the context.

    It feels a bit too reddit-like to have open trolls commenting in our communities, but constantly being down voted to the bottom of threads

    Sure, if they are actual trolls, and we can define that together in this thread or as a community. However, this user was an active commenter in several news/palestine-related communities, and lets just be honest, was not trolling or derailing the discussion. He disagreed with the OP (and to an extent I share a similar view) that Judaism and American Jews have deep sympathies to Israel, and this manifests in material structures in the United States (synagogues, community orgs, PACs, etc)

    OKAY PAUSE

    if that last statement is ban worthy because its trolling or “anti-semitism” , how the hell are we supposed to actually have this debate? Then this isn’t trolling and this is where active discussion and voting should take place in the thread. Keep in mind, the person who flung accusations was the mod of the community when he said " You’re not an anti-semite are you?"

    Thats why I think this is blatant mod abuse because there seems to be this unnecessary over-moderation and that’s exhibited by the guy continuing the convo in this thread which is unrelated to the community. Overall this fractures discussion across the entire website, not just the individual instance.

    Last, you’re going to have to prove the commenter has a repeated history of posting out-of-topic or bait. Not just a singular instance of a disagreement in perspective, and calling out a mod for a flimsy argument using his own rhetoric.








  • Hey, I’m tightening up my privacy like you. I’m not sure if containers are the best way to go, but Mullvad Browser is essentially what you are looking for. Its a firefox fork that has complete fingerprinting protection baked in. Its basically tor browser minus the tor network. Both it and tor have a button (“New Identity” feature) you can click to completely clean your session (cookies cache etc) without closing the browser.

    You can also see what your fingerprinting profile by looks like using the EFF’s “Cover Your Tracks”. It also reports how unique your browser is, but don’t use this as a metric of how private and secure you are, since there are many other aspects you need to factor.




  • So, preceding to not follow into the same trap as the remainder commenters here have made of addressing the content and not the mod action…

    You ban someone for making a comment (because you disagree with them) just to have the discussion continue in another board/community (this thread).

    Whats was the point in banning them then?

    Just let their comment remain and get down-voted to the floor of the thread - that’s the point of voting on a comment. Now the discussion has been pulled out of the community that had informed subscribers, and into one that has broadly zero overlap with c/palestine.

    BPR - Bait-Provoked Reaction: That mod probably overreacted in charged situation, or due to being baited.
