I was just perusing the modlog when I noticed something interesting. Apparently posting news about Gaza/Palestine is not allowed on !worldnews@sh.itjust.works. I decided to check the side bar and didn’t see anything. The only pinned post also does not indicate that this is not allowed

    Do you also require:

    • Palestinians denounce Hamas immediately
    • Ukrainians denounce Nazism immediately

    I’m Jewish, and I do not make my anti-Zionism a secret. But israel does not speak for all Jews, expecting all Jews to speak for israel is the type of isolating othering that makes people scared to live in the communities where they are. You can ask a Jewish organization what its stance is before donating or volunteering with them, but demanding Jews “own up” to Israel does the opposite of what you want. You have to understand there’s two major Jewish movements in response to anti-semitism. One is zionism, which maps directly to neocolonialism and the other is Doikayt which is coalition building.
