YSK Lemmy.World is fundraising for a Zionist media lobby - lemm.ee

Recently Lemmy.World admins have heavily started pushing an MBFC bot in their bigger subs despite it being deeply unpopular with the users. However rating propaganda was not enough for the mods as they are now actively fundraising for MBFC as well. [https://lemm.ee/api/v3/image_proxy?url=https%3A%2F%2Flemmy.world%2Fpictrs%2Fimage%2F23492ec1-e757-49b1-a4bc-22dbd39f99fe.png] Evidence MBFC is ran by a Zionist: The bias towards any pro-israel lobby website on MBFC is astoundingly obvious. Take for example UNWatch [https://unwatch.org]. UNwatch is still pushing the UNRWA is Hamas propaganda despite it being fully debunked by every country. [https://lemm.ee/api/v3/image_proxy?url=https%3A%2F%2Flemmy.world%2Fpictrs%2Fimage%2Fb8d45763-43b6-4188-aa6d-6f7fc2447ff1.png] Surely a website like this spreading blatant propagands would have a poor MBFC. rating. Let’s check it out!

They do not have to fail any fact checks, just being designated as a ‘hate group’ by an israeli lobby is enough for MBFC to become a questionable source. [https://lemm.ee/api/v3/image_proxy?url=https%3A%2F%2Flemmy.world%2Fpictrs%2Fimage%2F9cc748f5-4631-4a73-9e98-6741a4f86a4b.png] This is known to the lemmy.world admins and mods Over the course of the last 9 months I have pointed out multiple times in public and private messages that MBFC is an incredibly bad source of ratings. Multiple other users have also made summaries for the .World mods and admins over the last week (and before that). The admins have willingly ignored this criticism and now added a donation link to the MBFC bot knowing full well what MBFC stands for. Lemmy.World is directly endorsing the Zionist media lobby.

    I guess we are running in different circles (which is likely, cause we probably don’t live in the same country :D ). I do not perceive it this way. The black and white thinking is a big problem social media is not helping with (and I don’t accuse you of it, its just a fact)

        Sounds to me like it is more about the people aggressively proclaiming “we good everyone else evil” and not so much about the actual people that are being called woke by the likes of trump and other right wing extremists… The people who actually think of themselves as woke are usually not in the extreme spectrum you are referring to.

        I would think of myself as “woke” and I very much agree with your statement:

        I can definitely live with different opinions where opinions are reasonable (i don’t accept “opinions” that are just antisemitism or LGBT hate and similar things, actual racism and sexism just aren’t opinions)

            What is pretty much obvious from our debate here is that the meaning of a “woke” is depending on the person you ask. So maybe we should just not use that term when we want to criticize something, because nobody knows what exactly is meant by it.

            But just FYI I have no idea which country you’re from or who the people are you’re referring to
