Yeah, power tripping by virtue of inability to allow respectful discussion on the subject of a highly charged subject.
The ban was 1000% out of scale with anything in the comments. For the ban to be for that reason, which isn’t really in the community rules in the first place, it crosses from reasonable into arbitrary personal semantic demands.
Since there’s no definition or guidelines given on what they consider Zionism or not, that means they’re applying whatever their personal opinion is without any intervening steps to resolve the situation. Which, they can do, it’s their community, but the lack of transparency as to what that is makes it one of the classic power trippin’ moves.
It’s also egregious enough that I really think the mod is question may need admin intervention, possibly removal.
May be geneva will change their very expansive definitition of zionism, I like a lot of their posts, but I suspect that their definition is against instance rule 1 (bigotry…).
