        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.
