I’ve sent in my appeal and i’m sure the removal will be quickly reversed, it’s still very extremely disturbing such a thing could happen.

    Official response

    It looks like the wrong reason got attached to the report. It is likely the moderator intended to mark the post as false or misleading, as zionism is not “literally supported by the nazis”. Usually criticism of Israel or their actions in Gaza does not run afoul of our rules, but moderators generally intercede when running up against common antisemitic tropes like Holocaust inversion or relativism. (Your linked post, referring to “zionazis” would also qualify as such.) Our server is subject to the laws of Germany, which have fairly strong positions on the matter.

    Anyone have any good instances not based in Germany that I can move to? EDIT: While i’m at it I need a good matrix instance too.

      zionism is not “literally supported by the nazis”

      An aside but this is literally not true? The far-right is obviously split on Israel between the Hitlerite fascists who think that Jews are the ultimate evil, vs the neocon-type fascists who think that Israel is spreading “Judeo-Christian values” in the SWANA region, but fascists/neonazis are literally attacking pro-Palestine protests. It’s not a secret that a significant portion of the western far-right is Zionist.

        I’ve learned not to argue with nazis. If they say something is ‘disinformation’ no amount of evidence is going to change their minds. They know what they’re doing and are playing their hand. All you can do is take in that information and then act upon it.
