    The mods on /c/worldnews actively put a thumb on the scale when it comes to subjects like the Israeli-Palstinian conflict. If you don’t follow the party line, your comment is subject to removal. That “No hate speech, bigotry, propaganda, etc” rule does a lot of work. It’s not worth getting in a fight over, but I was a little sore that my comment about taking Hamas’ casualty statistics with a grain of salt would be prudent was deleted, while downright hateful comments towards Israel were left standing.

      It’s sad to hear. I believe that healthy discussion should always be welcomed even if you disagree. And hateful things should always be discouraged.

      The .world admins have always been corrupt and they’re doing it on purpose to ensure the internet remains censored and that Americans never have a free place to converse about what they need to converse about.
