Thank you for asking. I am too sheltered to know most slurs and it was bugging me, but not enough to ask myself.

I still agree with the “Jews against Zionism” crowd who take great offense to the idea that anti-genocide is the same as antisemitism. Because that seems to insinuate that genocide is linked to Judaism, which in itself is a pretty antisemitic idea.

I think he wants it removed because of the effect on Tesla. He’d prefer if he could do things without consequences for his actions.

Are you saying that the Verge is not a news website? Because I’m pretty sure that the removed post was a link to a perfectly good article.

Fair. Well now you’ve got confirmation, lol.

My Lemmy suggestions only got shadowbanned so far. Have they moved on to more radical action?

Sounds exactly like my experience going through the shadowbanned comments. I understood a few of them (like my recent comments suggesting Lemmy). But others were exactly like what you described. They were comments I spent an hour mulling over at times to get them just right with the right nuance and resources. So sorry that this was happening to you too.

Btw, for anyone mistrusting this tool, logging out and viewing things as public or from an incognito browser window should show the shadow banned comments as “removed”. Obviously difficult to do for large scales, but that’s why there’s a tool I guess.

Here you go

Just found out half of everything I ever did on the site was shadow banned. Looking into ways to mass delete my history.

Where do I sign up for the exodus post?

So far the mods aren’t minding my comments yet. But I’m quieter about it than some people I’ve seen on here. No all caps, or bolder text. No links. Just a comment kind of like this explaining that Lemmy is a pretty cool place. Probably slips through the cracks easier ;)

I’m still on both. Here for all of the political stuff and and anti-Reddit post and on Reddit I’m still in the subreddits that aren’t on here yet. Mainly a lot of crafting related stuff. And whenever someone complains about censorship on Reddit I respond with Lemmy as a suggestion. If I get banned I get banned. We’ll see.

Considering deleting my account as a statement but I’m kind of attached to the history which is why it’s kind of scary touching it at all at this point. All I’m using it for now is for a few crafting subreddits and some clothing based subreddits that don’t have equivalents on Lemmy yet. One I might be able to create myself. But we’re talking 5-10 of my most frequent hangouts. That seems like a bit much.

Went to find the removed post. The comments are not locked, lol. So everyone is discussing Reddit censorship and how they are upvoting it after it was removed.

Anyway, someone in the comments said this: “Musk doing a Hitler salute with a target on his head. Text “Make Nazis dead again” Very nice sticker”

I haven’t been banned either. Currently hanging around on both platforms but I expect I’ll say goodbye to Reddit sooner or later. Lemmy is definitely less addictive (which I love). Not quite as much variety here yet either. We’ll see what happens. Think my account is 9 years old at the moment, but this level of one-sides censorship and thought policing is unacceptable.

Not sure. I am part of the new wave 👋so we will see.
