I was just perusing the modlog when I noticed something interesting. Apparently posting news about Gaza/Palestine is not allowed on !worldnews@sh.itjust.works. I decided to check the side bar and didn’t see anything. The only pinned post also does not indicate that this is not allowed
edit: the mod in question is @Eyekaytee@aussie.zone . sorry for not originally tagging. i hadn’t realized it was a rule that this must be done. i thought it seemed inappropriate since i was trying to initiate a conversation about a community’s rules and culture rather than start drama about an individual
I don’t think there should.
Israel already has its safespace, it’s called the media.
how do you mean?
Israel proponents control Paramount, Reddit, Meta, CBS and now Tik Tok. What do YOU mean? What tf do you actually mean?
That sounds an awful like jews control the media
ZIONISTS.
Do you understand that this is a word with a different meaning from Judaism? Like, if I said “Theocratic-Christian”, is your first thought “Sounds like a conspiracy meant to smear all Christians.”? Or do you have the critical thinking skills to understand that there is more than one sect of any religious belief? Because the other option is that you are intelligent, but just like to bend words in order to score semantic victories while your soul withers under the weight of the horrors which you choose to defend. That can’t be it, I don’t think you’re an evil guy,
Jews have been here for thousands of years, half of my family was Jewish, everyone aside from my great-grandparents on one side died in the camps. We don’t control shit.
ZIONISTS are religious ethno-supremecist racists who have been around for roughly 100 years. My grandmother is older than Israel. And the outlets which I named are clearly and objectively controlled by ZIONIST interests. If you don’t like that, do something to change it instead of just pouting when others mention it.
If you hear Zionism, and conflate it with Judaism, that’s not anybody’s problem but yours.
Just to throw this into the mix, 95% of the Zionists I know personally are evangelical Christians with no Jewish heritage whatsoever.
Their particular death cult requires the existence of Israel as a state for their end-times prophecies.
They have no particular love for Jewish people – and, in fact, they frequently employ antisemitic language and stereotypes – but they absolutely love the Israeli government.
Exactly this. They would make kinda jokes about Jewish stuff. But they want the State of Israel to exist.
Neo-Nazis and White Supremacists used zionist to disguise their antisemitism. The belief in a “Zionist-Occupied Government” or in your case, control of international media, is an old antisemitic conspiracy theory.
Yeah I know, it’s a huge problem right now. Antisemitism is rising in a dangerous way and if you want to blame someone, his name starts with B and ends in enjamin Netanyahu. Or “The Decades-Long Funder of Hamas” as he is sometimes known.
That’s what I mean, this conflation with insane Zionists like Bibi or Ben Givr or Smoltritch or Larry Ellison or settlers in the West Bank with the religion of Judaism is the #1 cause of increasing antisemitism. Nothing even comes close. When humans see evil, we want it to stop, go figure huh?
Like you said “Sounds a lot like ‘jews control the media’.”. Yeah, because Zionists are making it their entire goal to do that. They are talking openly about it. Not Jews, Zionists. Listen to Bibi’s cringy-ass recent speech about controlling the media narrative. They are saying that this is what they are doing. They are intentionally making the conflation so that people like you, can come on here and claim that anti-zionism is antisemitism. In this way, they can continue their genocide. I made my choice, because I am an adult. I don’t care what they call it. Have you?
We see every day unspeakable atrocities, and the leaders of the nations responsible for this go on TV and tell us all that it is hateful to Jews if we stand against this evil because the perpetrators are Israeli. So people are given the choice, by Zionsts, to either stand against evil or be labeled antisemitic.
Do you see the problem here?
Israelis are waking up too, you ever wonder why there is always a magic reason to postpone elections whenever Bibi is on the block? He will never stop war by choice. If it stops, he retires in prison, and he knows this. He is using you.
So this Zionist-Occupied Media will cease to be once Bibi is gone?
How much overlap between antizionism and antisemitism do you think there is?
zionism is a form of antisemitism. as a jew i speak against zienism because zionism is against me. let me explain briefly the problem:
yes, antisemites sometimes use aesthetic antizionism to hide their hate as they inject it into the conversation. i’ve written at least one report in the last 24 hours for someone using a slur as a stand in for “zionist” that has a slightly different meaning to jews and white supremacists alike.
but that does not mean we should stop discussing antizionism, and the way you are approaching this issue in this comment is actually a problem. it reads like you want to stop the conversation to prevent the risk that an antisemite will use antizionism to spread their antisemitism. but this only supports the status quo, and the status quo is antisemitic and zionist in nature.
we live, all of us, in a world of illusory divisions that the oppressor (we call the oppressor pharaoh since our history goes back to the bronze ages, and pharaoh was the first opressor we knew of) exploits. by shutting down the discussion of these illusions, you allow people to remain in the dark. please be more open to that allowing discussion of antizionism is important and needed.
No, he wasn’t the first colonial leader, and he won’t be the last though I hope he is, he’s just the leader at this time when technology has begun to allow for the live-streaming of murder. And he doubles down, and doubles down. And says “Don’t believe your lying eyes, these are animals that are being killed, they are not people.”. DO YOU KNOW THE LAST TIME WE HEARD THAT KIND OF TALK? The last time that kind of talk was permitted in government my family tree had an entire trunk pruned off. Don’t act like any one group is sos special that they could never commit unspeakable atrocities. Ask former IDF soldiers how they feel about what they were ordered to do. Many of them vacation where I live. I talk to them, do you?
I don’t know, zionist occupied media is an odd way to put it and I really don’t appreciate any attempt at baiting the conversation toward hate. I know semantics are really all you have to work with when on the wrong side of good and evil, but it’s obvious and annoying. Are you ok with unabashed Zionist billionaires attempting to control every part of the narrative that they can while supporting clear war crimes? You can’t be for that, right? Literally spending billions in order to whitewash the perception of ethnic cleansing? Would you be ok if it were Muslim interests? Or Catholic? Or Hindu? Why? Or Why not?
To be honest, about the overlap between anti-zionism and antisemitism… I don’t think it’s what you may expect. It seems as though a lot of western racists are actually pro-zionist. They don’t plan on going to Israel. Look who Bibi and Trump break bread with, antisemitism does not seem to bother them very much. NICK FUENTES HAD DINNER AT THE WHITE HOUSE. This is not about the sanctity of religion, it is an imperial endeavor period. They meet with clear antisemites who support Israel, that’s all they really care about. I doubt Bibi even cares about religion at all. Antizionism really ruffles their feathers though, not antisemitism. Why would that be? Now why would that possibly be? This might just be the greatest mystery of our time.
They mean there’s already a lot of pro-israel sites.
they mean the big subreddits and tiktok and facebook.
sounds like a conspiracy
