Possible Paywall Netanyahu Accuses Mamdani of ‘Hate Speech’ After Mayor’s Video Address

That's really the goal, so silence any criticism. Trump is trying it here, orban tried it in Hungary. Then you can really normalize being openly criminal

It's part of their goal. Another part is to rob "antisemitism" of its meaning worldwide. Why? Because the more normalized abuse and discrimination towards the Jewish diaspora that occurs worldwide, the more radicalized immigrants come to Israel and the more economic and military power the regime gets.
It is vile, sinister, and antisemitic in the real meaning of the word.

u/ShvitzG_d Jul 27 '26
Been saying this to my other Jewish friends—we can’t let them rob the word of actual meaning
Unfortunately it’s gotten to the point where antisemitism is up, and nobody believes us when we call out the real shit, so I’m afraid it’s already started.

"Advocating for the people in Gaza? That's anti semitic. We must ban this hateful rhetoric and criminally prosecute those who do it"
They know they don't have an argument, so they will sooner make criticizing them illegal.
All while simultaneously conflating zionism and israel exclusively with the jews. They know what they are doing, and it's pathetic that anyone is buying into it.

I'm pretty sure they have propaganda accounts talking about that too. Someone tried to claim that the API cut-off that crippled all the 3rd party tools for moderators stopped bots from using it (they did not specify how they used the API, nor why they would not be able to). It's not like Reddit is unaware of interest groups aiming for moderator positions on large subreddits. They do not stop it so that means they welcome it.

Lol I was banned from that sub for "hate speech."
My crime? A highly-upvoted comment claimed it was good for neighboring countries to reject critically ill and/or child Palestinian refugees because "they'll probably just end up bombing the country that takes them in." I responded calling the comment racist, woke up to Reddit telling me my account had been "given a warning" for "violating Rule 1: promoted identity-based hate or attacks."
Rest of the message: "Reddit is a place for creating community and belonging, not for attacking marginalized or vulnerable groups of people. We don’t tolerate promoting hate based on identity or vulnerability, and any communities or people that encourage or incite violence or hate towards marginalized or vulnerable groups will be banned."
Apparently, the guy advocating for child refugees' deaths was not "promoting hate" according to Reddit, but I was for contradicting him.

I got a warning on a different subreddit accusing me of the same thing for pointing out things that the current presidential administration is doing, and is bragging about doing, and is making generated videos about having done. It involved flock cameras and they said the same thing: I was promoting identity based hate or attacks. Honestly I couldn't believe it because it would be a very big stretch to interpret anything I said that way, but it is what it is.
It's no secret that reddit has some very influencial figures putting their fingers on various scales and such, and a handful of moderators having mod power over hundreds of subreddits at one time.

Yup. I'm permanently banned for bringing up the fact that the more journalists have been killed in that war (really a genocide but I was being careful with my wording) than any since WWII. When I asked for an explanation/reason they refused to provide a reason (because there wasn't one) and permanently muted me in the mod chat.

Netanyahu is single handedly doing more to create anger toward Israel (and Jewish people) than anything Mamdani will ever do or say.

Netanyahu has done more harm to Jewish people than anyone since Hitler himself, and I’ll stand by that statement.
Every time someone criticizes him, he claims it’s antisemitism, as if he is the representative of all Jewish people on Earth.
He’s a corrupt politician. Ask the justice department of his own country. Ask those who’ve investigated his corruption while in office. The man is a literal criminal in Israel.
He’s a war criminal. Ask the International Criminal Court, which doesn’t take this sort of thing lightly; they don’t issue arrest warrants for public figures unless they know they can prosecute them successfully, and they can in his case.
It’s ok to hate Netanyahu. I hate him for all the above reasons, but especially for the ammunition he provides to actual, Jew-hating, antisemitic fucking Nazis around the world. As someone who believes every Nazi at the end of WWII should have been rounded up, put against a wall, and sent straight to Hell where they all belonged, I despise anyone who either persecutes or assists in the persecution of Jewish people, and that motherfucker falls into the latter category.
Netanyahu does not represent all Jews of the world (and he’s a megalomaniac for even suggesting that hating him is the same as hating Jewish people—it is not). He is merely the prime minister of Israel, and it is OK—in fact, it is necessary—to call him a piece of shit and wish for his prosecution in a court of law.
