Pro-Israeli mob harasses woman in New York with ‘Death to Arabs’ chant

Yeah, well, then polarisation will be the result. When every area censors opposition

Ok but they're pushing for more takedowns, not less (although there is a freedom of speech right, but it seems only the EU high court cares, not the commission)

In my case it would be the EU.

I disagree. The government doesn't need to step in and dictate how lemmy moderators moderate.

We just need to build and support communities that don't abuse mod powers over those that do.

Which government can you trust to force people to not censor?

Does anyone know of lemmy instances without as much censorship?

If you run your own, you can just undo the moderated action. I do that often on my instance just to see it without having to trawl through a modlog. But you should be able to also see it in the Modlog if you look there, can even filter by username.

Hilarious chaos probably would fit you. However it's mostly filled with 4chan like users. Basically the nazi bar instance

Lemmy shows that we can't just give randoms the ability to be authoritarians. We *need* a government that forces these people to not censor.

Does anyone know of lemmy instances without as much censorship?

I'd like to decide for myself what I get to see. There's a block button for that reason.

You just haven't been paying attention. Israel is a fascist ethno-supremacist state from its very founding as a settler-colonial project.

"It would be an excellent idea to call in respectable, accredited anti-Semites as liquidators of [Jewish] property. To the people they would vouch for the fact that we do not want to bring about the impoverishment of the countries we leave. The anti-Semites will become our most dependable friends, the anti-Semitic countries our allies.”

Huh, TIL, at one point it probably was.

But at one point people liked Kanye West, too, and then shit happened. Times have changed lol.

Tbf, sometimes I'm right there with em, I'm not above drunk ordering some dominos, or on the *rare* occasion I go to a mall I *may* hit the Sbarro (but the fake Chinese food wins every time, let's be real), but it's literally the same thing just more fresh and made to better specs! It's not even "real tacos V taco bell," it's such a close approximation of the "real" thing but lacking soul, whereas taco bell is so far from real tacos that it'd be more understandable to prefer the fake version. Like even Olive Garden V real italian I get, because it's americanized enough, but Sbarro is *not* far enough removed from real pizza as to necessitate this phenomenon.

I could understand getting Sbarro in *Chicago,* for those averse to deep dish, because it's a whole different style. I could understand some Chicago chain in NYC, for those who want deep dish. I could even understand Jets "detroit" style, because *that's* different too, but Sbarro in NYC is literally just "worse and more expensive version of the same thing you could have got in 20 different shops on your way here."

I personally know people that think sbarro (and Olive Garden as a proxy) is on par with “other pizza” as its own thing. Those people recognize it’s not “real pizza”; they just like it for what it is.

But fake NY pizza in NY? Just go to *literally any local.* It's not like a Sbarro in Kandahar, that I'd get, but this still makes no sense.

I've been here my whole life and, honestly, we don't know either. But The Office made fun of it when Michael went to NYC!

For the same reason there’s a TGI Friday in time square. McDonald’s. Olive Garden. It’s there for the tourists that rather have their slop.

Sbarro was founded by two Italian immigrants in Brooklyn, they were probably real NYC pizza at one point

I don’t know. I live in New Orleans and they had a Red Lobster in the suburbs and someone is trying to put Chick Fil’A restaurants all over town. (The someone is literally a guy who got rich via owning a garbage truck company.)

Tourists like shitty fast food sometimes. I don’t know why people get the worst fried chicken in the city but people do. Some toddlers throw a fit if their dinner isn’t chicken nuggets.

There's a fucking Sbarro in NYC? *Why?*

Doesn't seem like they're supportive of Israel, no

On behalf of Jim’s and Jimmy’s I’m embarrassed that the other reply to your comment is so shallow, *sigh*

are you pro-terrorism?

It doesn't matter if you are jewish or not. If you dare criticize Israels genocide you are anti-semitic. If you are Jewish you must support Israel and all their war crimes.

So a Jewish women protesting against genocide was harassed by a racist mob chanting pro-genocidal slogans.

Here's hoping you're right. Maybe all those who helped find the Jan 6th rioters will jump on this bandwagon.

Eventually.

Seriously, this is my hope. Make sure all proof is safe.

The good news is we have these assaults on tape, so I'm sure there will be a robust investigation and the attackers will be held to justice. Right?

She was a Jew and "The men seem to believe she was part of a pro-Palestinian protest against a visit by Israel’s National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir earlier that day, but it’s been reported she was just a concerned resident"

“Itamar Ben-Gvir supporters” are literally called terrorist sympathizers, at best. An Israeli court convicted him of terrorism related offenses. It’s not even controversial. It’s like saying El Chapo wasn’t in a cartel or that Trump never gave $3 hand jobs in an alleyway near the Sbarro in midtown NYC that now sits on West 33rd St.
