I have spoken against genocide on reddit before and received site wide bans for speaking my mind.
I got a lifetime ban from reddit - given by r/palestine for speaking out about usraeli settlers behaviour to Palestinians in the West Bank - no appeal, no contact.
I was in the top 1% of commenters on that platform......Infiltrated by zionists?
I got banned from /r/Palestine for calling out pro-Trump obvious foreign election interference. As in, brand new accounts during the 2024 campaign that posted dozens of pro-Trump articles to /r/Palestine with no other site activity.
I had a fourteen-year history of posting in support of Palestinian liberation and against the occupation and genocide.
Funnily enough, I also got banned from /r/politics for a pro-Palestine comment.
What I take from all this is that reddit is a shithole and not worth getting worked up over. Fuck that site and all the astroturfing pro-genocide monsters on world news and the rest of it.
I would love to see a poll on reddit on whether or not the /r/israel sub should be banned.. but, I can't even ask that question. unless someone is smarter than me..
And yet people support censorship on Lemmy, despite it being demonstrated to them how harmful it is.
I support censorship on Lemmy.ml and my home instance Lemmygrad. You need censorship to have a chance of having good interactions, otherwise it'll just be deliberate attacks, shock-content drowning out anything you'd wish to engage with.
But the software isn't censored. If you don't like the censorship regime in your particular instance, you can go to a different instance. Almost none will be zero-censorship, but you can find one that is permissive. If you insist on no censorship at all, hosting your own on your home computer is feasible.
Well, then again, if the tolerant tolerate intolerance soon they themselves will not be tolerated, you know?
