    According to the modlog, posts that are not negative towards Israel have been removed. There is definitely censorship here.

      you literally just had a protracted argument with me, an admin who determines what gets removed or not, in another thread over Israel and that was not removed. you have another pro-Israel set of comments in this thread that have not been removed even though i personally think they’re even less defensible than what you were arguing with me. i don’t know how you can seriously attempt to make this point.

          The top one on that list is a comment condemning Israel, and the mods removed it. Several others, too.

          It’s not censorship when they’re removing posts by both sides.

          It mostly looks like the same 2-3 trolls posting inflammatory content that is getting removed.

            I’m not the one you were replying to and haven’t read the comments you referenced but couldn’t let this stand unchallenged:

            It’s not censorship when they’re removing posts by both sides.

            Yes it is censorship, it could be censorship with reduced bias, it might even be appropriate censorship. But it is literally censorship to censor speech.

              If you read who I was responding to, they are asserting that this is political censorship of pro-Israel content. It may be censorship, but not towards a certain political viewpoint, just towards assholes.
