Comment

Comment on Feddit.org officially announces they will ban criticism of Israel and pro-Palestinian posts and comments.

It amuses me that expressing understanding with the retaliation is forbidden. I definitely understand why a militant extremist group has arisen after decades of oppression and genocide.

Like, how do you negotiate your way out of that peacefully? Where in history has oppression on that level been defeated through diplomacy?

I seem to have forgotten the part where the allies defeated Nazi Germany by asking nicely. Surely no war was fought for recognising black people as humans in the U.S.

Perhaps Ukraine should put down their weapons and ask Russia to pretty please stop invading their country and killing their people.

Ugh.

This one here, right?

Endorsement of or justifications for Hamas or Hezbollah, or slogans or graphics positively referring to these organizations. These are considered terrorist organizations in Germany.

I don’t think expressing understanding is either endorsement or justification. So as written, it should be fine, but since it comes down to the mods interpretation, who knows what the outcome would actually be.
