I hope this is the right place for this post because from my 2-day experience in lemmy.world I see signs of a dystopic online community in which it is not permitted to express anti-zionist opinions. If you think this post would fit better in another forum, would you point it out to me? Unless automod gets to me first?
- I created an account 2 days ago and I posted this article in Not the Onion: U.S. Airdrops Food to Gaza While Arming Israel to Drop Bombs.
It was removed by automod, so I contacted a human mod. The rest is in the screenshot. I decided not to wait for an answer because I had similar issues in Reddit. Mods were removing anti-zionist posts of news articles and had them restored a couple of days later, so they would get less visibility by not showing up on the first page, and it worked. Assuming (of course I cannot be certain at this point) that similar stuff are taking place here, is also alarming.
- Take a look at this post as well: What is @automod doing?
Tbh, I just hope I’m just wrong on all this, and I would really like to have some feedback on this from people that have been around in this instance longer that I have been.
Many people upvote and interact with a post without checking what sub its from. I am guilty of this myself.
This story definitely deserves more attention but its almost the opposite of onion, falls in line with my expectations. Gaslighting governments have been the norm for a while.
