As you might have noticed, there was a bit of drama lately around the moderation of !europe@feddit.org and feddit.org in general, with a result being the creation of !Europe@lemmy.dbzer0.com.
So, I just checked the modlogs for unrelated reasons and stumbled upon this:
I have never engaged with this new community nor have I participated in any discussion around the aforementioned issues before the ban. I made one comment yesterday that refers to the discussion and one comment three days ago arguing about the way the feddit admins argued their point and stating the holocaust was on a much larger scale than the genocide against Palestine.
I don’t know if I want this situation to be remedied though as this to me looks like guilty by association (I engage a lot with communities on feddit.org since I’m german and it’s the largest german instance with a lot of relevant communities, so, duh) but I want to know if I oversaw something or if this is the style of moderation in the new community or the whole instance.
The same what happened to Germans living in Germany after WW2 or to white south Africans after the fall of apartheid - nothing. Apart from war criminals of course, these should be arrested, have just but swift trials and go to prisons for the rest of their lives.
The problem is he’s framing it under the typical evil Zionist strawman that Israel not being a state implies violence when it doesn’t and the majority of people saying it aren’t implying that either. This is a blatant bad faith argument that has no substance or merit because he’s trying to create a fake gotcha so he can claim his Zionist beliefs are correct.
It is an argument which can be easily exposed though.
