Normally this should be removed under the "We're not YPTB" rule, but as this is a new situation I'll allow this thread to act as a megathread. New posts about this will be removed, so post any new memes here.
Could somebody even explain what's going on?
The Germans are claiming the laws forces them to censor anti Israeli speech. You cannot say they are Nazis (apparently the Germans patented that) and you cannot call for the end of Israel as a state.
According to them, disolving a nation-state is the same as killing everybody. The goal is to imply that if it wasn't for Israel the genociders would be the genocidees. It's a form of denial. "It was self defense"
On one hand, I get .org's admins' reasoning, and don't disagree with the core of it - no one wants a fucking police visit to their house over a hobby project.
On the other hand, it's a strong reason for me to not use Feddit.org (separate from Feddit.uk) comms at all, regardless of the comm's individual position on the ongoing Palestinian genocide.
There's no law saying they can't ban the homophobic, genocide denying users they host.
Have you even read the official feddit.org announcement? There is nothing in there that would prevent a serious discussion of the atrocities of the Israeli government. They simply ask to not call for ethnic clensing of an entire group of people or to relativise the holocaust. That is an extremely low bar (which should be common sense) and if that prevents you from participating in feddit.org comms that is really a you problem.
It's broader than that - it also forbids comparisons of the Israeli government to Nazis. You may say that that's just an issue of tone that doesn't prevent serious discussion, and you aren't wrong - but I have no interest in getting tone policed on a fucking genocide either, regardless of German law.
You are being dishonest. They ban call to disolve Israel as a political entity. Saying the Israeli state should be disolved is NOT a call for ethnic clainsing.
Your whole move is to blame the victims by saying if it wasn't for Israel the palestinians would genocide the jews.
who's
\sigh
Industrial scale is like, with train carts going to death camps for 4 years
Nice to see that good meaning critics of israels war crimes are being judged by details instead of doing something more useful for your general movement. Surely it hurts you so much that you can't compare the idf to nazis but still can say how what israel's doing sucks and is a war crime
No, they're not. You are not legally required to act this extreme. This is a personal choice by the instance admins and users.
For instance example there is zero law against not banning those who deny the genocide of Palestinians, but your instance continues to defend them.
"This extreme" apparently means now allowing pretty much everything except relativising the holocaust and calling for ethnic cleansing of jews. And no, those things are very much not allowed in Germany.
If you deny any genocide including one of Palestinians that is against Feddit.org instance rules and will likely get you banned.
Please stop spreading completely false information.
