It’s troubling “mean arab terrorist” had such experiences here. I would ask if this was on Lemmy or Lemmygrad?

“I have seen people refer to Chador and Hijab as “wearing trashbags””

This is insanely racist. This should not be tolerated.

“the Islamic Republic of Iran is “enslaving women””

We all have liberal tendencies here that we are in the process of purging however this western feminism should have been called out.

“I have seen people refer to Islam as “a painkiller” and that communists should “free [Muslims] from irrational immaterial thought” and make accusations that all Muslims engage in FGC”

I am unfamiliar with the term ‘FGC’, however the opiate of the masses critique is based. This is a long standing Marxist stance on religion. This should be allowed here.

“I was banned from the Palestine community for “being mean” to an israeli colonizer after I told them to expeditiously get out of Palestine.”

Blaming the individual is radlib however in the Israeli case I would tell them to join Palestine instead of trying to paint them as the entire country of Israel.

“I have had my comments censored and removed when discussing the liberation of Palestine From the River to the Sea and citing the revolutionary leaders from the resistance. The reasoning for censorship repeated the zionist entity language: “advocating terrorism”"

Not ok. We are against imperialist powers and projects.

“Throughout all of this I see invaders who live in the settler-colonies are defended as “comrades like everyone else”. Even though they are repeating toxic discourse about how such and such liberation movement “shouldn’t alienate the [colonizer] ‘workers’.””

It seems that this latest topic in it’s turbulent controversy was the last straw for you and I find it regretful that it has gotten this far considering 90% of what you experienced you shouldn’t have.

Take care and I wish you the best.

    It should go without saying that all of the mod team, supports Palestine, and stands against the settler-colonialist terrorist state of israel.

    Please report any islamophobic content so we can remove it, and issue bans as necessary. If you see it, say it.

    As to nameless partisans claims tho, they were not banned, as you can see from the modlog. This comment of theirs received reports and was removed:

    In order to liberate Palestine (consequently Greater Syria and the entire SWANA region), between 10-30% of all the Jewish Israeli occupiers currently in Palestine need to be eliminated. The remainder will all need to be expelled and all their stolen property expropriated by the true owners of the land. Every single occupier in Palestine is a legitimate target, including ‘tourists’. Every one deserves a bullet or a rocket. Including and especially the ‘leftist’ ones.

    This kind of rhetoric puts the entire site and everyone who uses it at risk.

    As communists, we don’t think individualist terrorism and indiscriminate killing of civilians are effective methods for achieving decolonization.
