  • I don’t think forums really are a great place to have these political discussions at this point.

    I partly agree that big Communities are not good for such discussions. But if a mere comment “what could Hamas do to end the violence?” is a reason for a ban then those communities should just forbid commenting at all.

    And btw, on Reddit there are some actually very positive political groups, e.g. lazerpig and the volt-groups. As long as they don’t get too big and keep a healthy athmosphere this is possible.

    Well, 172 nations on Earth see it like this:

    Israel is a friendly state in hostile neighbourhood…

    Hamas and Hisbollah are terrorist organisations.

    Or least they were. Nowadays we better speak in past tense about them. This bites you, doesn’t it?

    I’d rather take my ban in some hate-spreader Community with pride when justice in the real world rules over terrorism.

    No.

    Reddit rarely bans. VERY rarely.

    And NEVER for comments.

    Sure, they delete like hell. Posting something in r/news is harder than landing on the moon, same goes for r/noncredibledefence and other Reddits.

    But Lemmy is going bonkers, many high-profile Communities are held under an iron thumb like the moderators are all paid by the Axis-of-Evil (Russia, Iran, North-Korea).
