Mods go crazy over one weird trick: change “israel” to “zionists”.

Apparently it’s a bannable offense not to recognize the “state of israel”.

The normalization of colonization and genocide runs deep.

    Looks like they would have allowed your news sources if you didn’t editorialize the headlines.

    I’m no fan of world news, it’s part of the reason I made alternative news coms. But your ban had nothing to do with Zionism.

      The disinformation term “israel” is completely related to israel. The “rule” that I violated is designed to protect exactly this form of disinfo.

        … the rule to copy headlines exactly? In that case why would you post information from sources you disagree with?
