You better believe it. I had an account for almost 12 years that only got any kind of ban due to anti-zionist criticism I made. The whole affair with Gaza has broken me in ways I cannot describe. But you wouldn't believe what was the comment I made that got me permabanned .

Some zionists were trolling me on the Lebanon subreddit and accused all Lebanese of blaming our problems 100% on Israel. I only responded that we only blame Israel for what they deserve blame for.

No seriously, that is what got me permabanned. They claimed that that comment was a call for violence against a marginalized group of people.

I am currently personally banned from reddit for a pro palestine comment, not just like an account, they've banned my IP and Device IDs, any account I create gets deleted within a few hours, I tried to make one today to test how bad it is...

2 hours, it lasted 2 hours

It's despicable how they've tried to shut down criticism of Israel's mass murder by dishing out permabans

The situation over there is tough, it's so zionist it's starting to feel right wing.

To be fair, half of it is filled with outright fascists, ahem r/Europe cough r/Worldnews

Just the mention of r/worldnews made me quiver .

Lemmy.world isn't any better these days, it took the anti-spez but still pro r/worldnews crowd

Lemmy.world is getting there too, though that's more of an admin/moderator issue than a user issue (for now).
