Just noticed my post was deleted, so it wasn’t a load of horse shit. I didn’t take gusimo post seriously as my comment was milquetoast at best but here we are. I guess if I am not allowed to criticize how religious followers affect my life then I suppose this is not the place for me.
Comment on NSW premier calls for royal commission, pledges to ban 'globalise the intifada' chant
Nath@aussie.zone 5 days agoExcuse me, that’s a load of horse shit. The modlog is right there at the bottom of the page. From this discussion, it’ll default to filtering mod actions for /c/Australia.
Point me to any comment you think should be restored and I’ll re-evaluate. But don’t sit there and pretend we censor you from behind secret doors like this is Reddit. I see stuff I disagree with on the regular, but I very rarely step in. I let the community votes do that.
The main rules of the site are and have always been:
Golden rule - don’t be a dick. If you wouldn’t say it in front of your grandmother, don’t post it.
No bigotry - including racism, sexism, ableism, homophobia, transphobia, or xenophobia.
Be respectful. Everyone should feel welcome here.
In case this isn’t clear:
Criticism of a government’s actions (Ours, USA, Israel etc) is fine. Start bashing Muslims because of the actions of two jerks or start lumping all Jewish people in with the actions of the Israeli government, and we’ll step in. If/when we do though: it’s visible. You can see what was removed and what justification we used when we did it. Whatever impression left you with the attitude that we censor users is mistaken.

Hrm, yours is a tricky one because I had read it and moved past it. I recognised you came from a place of hyperbole and didn’t think much of it. I didn’t remove it.
But looking at the comment again after it was removed, it does pretty much break all three of the rules I posted. So I’ll not override the mod and restore it.
It’s not that criticising actions of religious people is the issue, it’s grouping them all members of a religion into your criticism that is the problem.
‘Those two guys are bad’ is fine. ‘115,000 Aussies are terrible people because those two guys are bad’ is not fine.

Thanks for the response.
It was about Minns being authoritarian, which he has a history of being one. He brought Jews into the discussion so they are fair game as likely some where in his ear, as I am not aware of him being Jewish.
Can’t use predicate logic in dealing with groups of people. Using statistical measures it is pretty clear that Jews and Arabs don’t like each other, I don’t think that is controversial given the political rhetoric used by politicians to get those groups support. If it looks like a duck, quacks like a duck and walks like a duck, it is a duck. Same as trying to seperate Jewish from Israel, there where Israel flags every where during the Bondi tributes.
Good luck with the site. I will not be participating any further as I think the moderation is a bit cooked. Allowing doxxing but not my comment demonstrates a different priority of values and Cloudflare sucks big time, cannot do anything with having to constantly refresh the page.

Yeah sorry. I share the other user frustration and threw it on Aussie zone. It’s a frustration about everywhere where Jews are considered holy and even thinking anything not positive is a crime, while everyone else gets a different treatment.
Yes, I’ve seen a bunch of comments here against Muslims and Chinese all the time. Comments I find ugly but also totally OK, no one have to like everyone. But I know that if those comments were against Jews, they would have been unfairly censored. But no blame on you, anywhere else on the internet would be like that.
To clarify my position so you can judge me anti Semite or not, while many people I admire are Jewish like Stalman or Noam Chomsky, I hate most religions, or as I call it, mafias, and it’s frustrating that I can shit on Muslims or Christians all I want (not Arabs , Muslims) but if I say anything about the ones with J, then I’m worse than Hitler. We’re not allowed to criticise them, but above all, this situation allows many of them be real pieces of shit and commit all the genocide they want.
The other religions have their criminals too, but they have to be a lot more careful because they don’t get that free pass. We have to rely on heroes like Noam Chomsky to voice their opinion and even he gets to be called anti Semite and censored.
This censorship is a weapon and the criminals are using it very well.
But again, it’s a misplaced frustration. Aussie zone is not worse than basically anywhere else on the internet. And the places where people can talk against them are usually full of other insane criminals like white supremacists or the opposing religions. So it’s a much bigger issue.
In fact this post is probably even illegal. So feel free to delete it or block me or Aussie zone could get in trouble for fomenting anti Semitism. And I’m honest. It’s the first time I talk about this because I think it’s not even legally allowed to say those things and it’s like talking about piracy, which could bring a community down.
