Re: "Antenna deplatforming/blockage/censorship"
@Minko_Ikana everyone has bias that's how people work, to expect no bias in a discussion thread where people share their opinions is silly, hence my reference to Jesus saying let he who is without sin cast the first stone, which is impossible in terms of Christian doctrine.
@n3m3516 text as a form of communication is no more or less harmful than any other form of communication but to suggest that text which calls for genocide is harmless is to be laughed at when considering history.

@bumpsh not having a clue about the situation does not give you a pass whenever you are advocating for someone to keep the privilege of being able to keep a link in a privately run social space.
I'll give you some info on it for free, it's not a war its an illegal occupation and a genocide (both these are have legal definitions that Israel meets and are therefore facts).
30,000 civilians have been killed in 2 months, which is over 3 times the casualty rate in 2 years of war in Ukraine.
there is evidence that press, health workers and children have been targeted.
white phosphorus has been used on civilian population.
intentional starving of civilians (collective punishment)
continued....
.....
all of the above and more are war crimes.
in fact thanks to Israeli ingenuity we may get 5 new war crimes added to the books.
it also doesn't just start from 2 months ago, even before October Israel had 10,000 Palestinian children hostage in its prisons and is the only country to sentence children in military courts.
supporting Israel is like supporting apartheid south Africa or Rhodesia. I would also hope that people expressing views that imply for example "white Europeans have the right to rule over black Africans and treat them as sub human or second class citizens'" or are calling for the death of any group of people are banned in a similar fashion.

I feel like the discussion ought to be "hey ewok's antenna instance seems to be pretty canonical. he removed some posts. would the community want to use a different instance?" I guess some would, so why not set one up???

@corscada thanks for some context, but I must say either way I am not advocating to specifically one person I would have said all of this regaurdless of their posts content ( exceptions inculde CSAM,spam) heck I personally might go as far to allow advocaters of those exceptions, as long as that content is not actually present.
but I have not thought that last part through enough
regaurding
@gyaradong:
I actually might make a fork with proper user registration that has the new user describe the scope of their content. so then its either a simple yes/no or putting tags next to the content to warn/label what I think it is before a user clicks it.
but I am short on time these days so we will see.

@bubstance
you convinently left out
"but I have not thought that last part through enough"
funny how that works huh?
not only that but in the actual quoted text literally right before the left out sentance. it say 'personally *might*' that does not mean I like that content or want it around all that says is that I strongly believe not matter how bad an opinion is that you should be able to put it next to the best.
Let's try to keep this at least somewhat civil and on topic.

I think this discussion has run its course, not seeing any new value being added. Please think hard before posting anything else. Thanks!

Antenna deplatforming/blockage/censorship — disclaimer: I am not up to date on news at all I (9 times out of 10) believe that both sides are dumb, left right or sideways it does not matter to me. post: If this is true, wtf? we are not exactly toddlers we can handle some text based opinions, spam sure block it, but really a hot take,MiSiNfOrMaTiOn? I am not opposed to a warning tag...
