Title says it all. In combination with the recent post about somebody getting banned from the same comm, there’s a trend starting to emerge.
Edit: Sad but unsurprising that this immediately got downvoted by a German user
Edit 2: Looks like this was just one of many such posts that got locked without any reason given. Notice a pattern in the topics locked?
You clearly don’t understand. Opposing the genocide means you support the Palestinians committing their own genocide on the Zionists!
Instead of, ya know, giving the Palestinians dignity and emancipation, hoping for a future where they can live side by side or at least in their own sovereign states.
What the fuck is going on with !Europe@feddit.org ???
I just checked and I appear banned there too although I am not sure if it is related to the same idiot(s) banning users for supporting Palestinians.
Seems like they’ve been banning people who don’t cater to or go along with their Zionist apologia. They’ve also been locking and removing many such posts in support of Palestine, or critical of Israel.
That’s pretty blatant ptb
This just reinforces my previous assertion that the mods of !europe@feddit.org, or at the very least some of them have a serious Zionism problem. Actually considering the amount of Zionist apologists in the other thread I would wager that Feddit.org has a serious Zionist problem.
I mean just read rule 4 of that comm. It says “don’t question the statehood of Israel” in the rule banning hate speech, ostensibly to comply with German law. Germany has no such law (yet). They’re at the very least running defense for Zionists. I got warned by the mods to delete or edit parts of my side of an argument where I argued for a one-state solution over there the other day.
Did they even pretend that there was a reason?
Can someone with a moral compass make another europe channel for people who actually respect human rights?
There’s !europe@europe.pub
Their instance has the same Zionist policies as Feddit.org though.
Can you provide an example?
Content illegal under Austrian, German, or EU laws (e.g., child exploitation, incitement to hate, or terrorism advocacy) will not be tolerated.
To me that seems like they’d cater to Germany’s legally codified definition of “antisemitism” AKA anti-Zionism. Maybe they won’t do that but I don’t trust them.
I wouldn’t fault for that unless there is direct evidence of them removing criticism of zionism.
I think it’s something to be careful of though since mods and admins may yield to it out of fear or lack of knowledge and start going after criticism of Zionism thinking that it will be seen as antisemitism.
I’d do it but I’m not super interested in modding such a large community and I’m not sure if @db0@lemmy.dbzer0.com would want such a big general community here. I’d create it if he’s okay with it and if people would be willing to step up to replace me.
Pretty sure dbzer0 would be one of the best places for a communuty like this, provided it is well moderated.
You’re right. I think I’ll create one. But like I said I’m not willing to moderate such a big community by myself so others will have to take over.
Edit: I just created !europe@lemmy.dbzer0.com once it has enough mods I’ll transfer it to someone and open it to all posting.
If anything, documenting the issue is the best thing we can do. Since fedi mostly immutable, so the records will stay up for eternity. Such this aint reddit where speech can be easily suppressed, censored and then mopped like discussion never happened.
The sanitation they did on luigi… holly molly. A lot of good discussion just gone, never happened.
Many other topics and prolly even more shit I did not even notice. Really does make you wonder if all he shit presented to us actually went down as it is being told today.
The feddit.org admins are planning to make an official announcement on how they see the situation and there was an internal discussion about this where it was agreed to wait for that official announcement. This is the main reason these topics were closed.
I really hope they have a good explanation for this kind of censorship…
Fuck off, I am own this server is the best case scenario since it would at least be honest.
When is the announcement planned for? It’s been a couple days since the topics were locked. Without any further word on it this is no different than standard censorship.

I suggest that any “announcement” should be made here as their overeager mod managed to ban number of users defending Palestinians and therefore made any discussion over there not possible.
Willing to bet if their priorities are where I think they are, they won’t do that. Why would they want to facilitate easy discussion of or against their Zionist policies? No if we want that here someone will have to crosspost it most likely.
The originazi supporting neonazis.
