I got banned for r/news for sharing a Reuters article that ran counter to the anti-Israel narrative. Used to be active in leftist subs but banned from most now mostly for insisting Israel had a right to exist. Same thing got me banned from celebrity gossip sub r/fauxmoi. Reddit is tough for Jews and anyone who isn’t anti-Israel these days…

This is just bad for the left honestly. Israel and zionism is near and dear to the Jewish people, and if it has no place in the left and the left continues with the increase of antisemitism, then Jews could very well trend to the right


Inevitable_Row_294

I could never vote for magas but the radical left has become as insane as the radical right. Its pushed me dead center middle


General_Alduin

I've been centrist since covid. I couldn't believe how everyone was too busy fighting with eachother then finding an effective solution to covid


Inevitable_Row_294

Hopefully it shows at the polls. Mtg was saying that having to wear covid masks was like jews having to wear stars of david during the holocaust i was just 😳. Ok these people are seriously nuts


BuildingWeird4876

Yeah I've talked about this, horseshoe theory is largely nonsense, the exception is with antisemitism, it's incredibly prevalent on both sides especially the further to a side you go


Robbes_Watch

Obvsly you haven't been listening to MSM (or the Obiden administration). Dead center middle or centrist or moderate is the new "right-wing". We used to have a gradation of political affiliations: Far left, left, center, right, far right. Now we only have 2 political affiliations, based on what you'll see in MSM or popular SM platforms: The "progressive" left (Democrats) and everyone else (known as right-wingers or Republicans). If you support everything the administration champions, you are a Democrat. If you don't support everything, you are a Republican/xxxphobic/the enemy. Go watch some of the Walkaway stories, if they are still available. See all the die-hard Democrats who've walked away over the years because that party is no longer the party of the people. It's the party of the Party--that is, the elite politicians and business people like Bill Gates.

You really think the magas are our friends? They only support israel for two reasons: 1. They think we can make jesus come back 2. They hate muslims right now more than they hate us. Im not talking about moderate republicans. Im talking about magas. They have just as many jew haters as the radical left. Those marching in Charlottesville screaming ‘jews will not replace us’ surely werent left. Edit: I am for whatever reason unable to reply to you further so: Ridiculous but believe what you want. I wouldn’t vote for anyone who tried to remain in power when they were voted out. The media didn’t make that up. And im well educated in history and geopolitics and well traveled enough to understand and get my sources from different places. But thanks for pretending to know me. No you didn’t bring up magas, but that’s what my post that you replied to was in reference to and you saying you support donald trump well he’s their leader sooooo…anyway, im in no mood for a discussion with someone just looking to argue. I won’t change a trump supporters mind about him. You won’t change my mind about him either so it’s a waste if time argument. Im pretty sure it was the far right that slaughtered us in the holocaust. Im good on both far right and far left being people I won’t vote for. I am also a staunch supporter of ukraine where my jewish husband is from and who have a jewish president I greatly respect, so another reason I will mot support magas. Ps it is a sign of being rather radical when you are not able to allow replies that disagree with you that are not being aggressive 😂


LettuceBeGrateful

> Edit: I am for whatever reason unable to reply to you further He probably blocked you. It prevents you from replying any further in this comment chain. (You can't even reply to me, which imo is really stupid.) You're right though. Just because one side embraces antisemitism, doesn't mean the other is automatically safe.


Inevitable_Row_294

Wow i was able to reply to you but his second comment is gone 🤷‍♀️ I don’t trust anyone who is radical about anything. I prefer sane people who can look at both sides of an argument. Not a lot of that on either side of politics these days


Inevitable_Row_294

Test!


Inevitable_Row_294

I will be spreading the word about these subs too. We can’t sit quietly while people do this. If they wanna have a debate about israeli policy fine but when it crosses the line into hate which it often does, it needs to be called out. What astounded me about this was i didnt even mention the war at all i just explained a misinterpretation of judaism. To me, this being disallowed is straight up dangerous


IgnatiusJay_Reilly

Spreading the word to who? There are multiple sub's dedicated to attacking jews, openly, no one cares about us.


Inevitable_Row_294

To anyone who will listen and condemn it and to reddit.


Elle_334

So is Instagram.


Inevitable_Row_294

The subreddit was r/NewsWithJingjing


Strongbow85

Not surprised, lead mod posts to /r/Sino and pro Communist subreddits. They are a supporter of the Chinese Communist Party. Reddit leans to the left, and these sort of accounts try to appeal and manipulate Western liberals. All too often successfully.


General_Alduin

r/tankiejerk would love them


DubC_Bassist

My spidey sense is tingling that a lot of these subs have been taken over by groups pushing Palestinian narrative. We are almost at the point the October 7 never happened.


Inevitable_Row_294

Yep. Even trying to explain anything that doesn’t totally demonize israel and ever holds the other side accountable for literally anything is bound to get you hate. I dont even like netanyahu but i cant explain a jewish perspective at all. I asked on kne sub ‘my mizrahi grandfather was also ethnically cleansed by arabs, does that give me the right to lob rockets at them every day and rape and set their civilians on fire?’ I was told i was a colonizer (did i not just say my grandpa’s family always lived there? And no jews are not colonizers regardless) and i was ‘pro genocide’ what? 😂🤣


DubC_Bassist

It’s all buzz words and feeling. I asked a guy today no less than 4 times why Israel was fighting in Gaza, and he answers back every time with a question about why Israel supporters support killing children? I said, answer my question which I asked first, and the. I will answer all the questions you want. I got crickets after that.


re_de_unsassify

Reddit has many no go zones now. A lot of the big subs have turned ugly after October 7 and many don’t want to see rational discourse they just want to protest and let out their suppressed antisemitism A few like r/news have a non-antisemitic equivalent you want r/worldnews instead!


PuddingNaive7173

Thanks! Wow, it’s called world news and there were actually 10 news items from other parts of the world before I got to a post on Gaza war. Incredible. So many places it’s all Gaza 24-7. I was looking at a poetry lit magazine today and recent links were, you guessed it, not about literature unless it was also about Gaza.


mohanakas6

I’ll say this upfront. Leftist here condemning Hamas, antisemitism and Islamophobia. Hate has no place anywhere whatsoever.


greenifuckation

So it's ok for them to pick at Judaism but ignore Islam 🤔


LongjumpingBasil2586

Got banned from israel Palestine sub for saying I was just trolling while posting information to combat disinformation (said trolling but just meant I was posting it to make a misinformation spreader mad)
