Community description for ManufacturingConsent is “when the media decides who you are rooting for.” So, being banned for questioning their narrative strikes me as absurdly funny. I mean, I guess if the idea of the community is that geneva_convenience should decide whom you root for, that would track.

The post in question: https://piefed.ca/post/266435

(I pointed out that the Guardian was probably including the hostages who died after the attacks. This really bugged OP and led to a ban.)

I don’t really care for a remedy, seems a silly place. Just thought it was funny as heck.

(For what it’s worth, like most, I side with Palestine but I think being accurate lends credence to our cause.)

          Lol can’t imagine why a group of people or their supporters (which you now fall into) would want to spread scurrilous remarks about another group whose purpose is to document their toxic extremism.

            The entire point of that community it specifically to instigate harassment.

            whose purpose is to document their toxic extremism.

            Do you think describing it this way makes not look like an odd place? This just reinforces it

    That’s geneva_convenience for ya. Avoid .ml communities like the plague, they’re not very tolerant of any form of dissent. Geneva likes to paint a lot of people as Zionist without good reason.

      Gotta stay in the safe lib zones where your indoctrination won’t be challenged by a different but very similar indoctrination.

        … Do you actually not see the irony in posting this in a thread about being banned from a community called Manufacturing Consent for noting a mistake?

        That’s kind of amazing, thank you.

          “Noting a mistake”, and not trying to control the narrative, excuse a century of Zionist atrocities, and attribute Zionist execution of hostages to their victims. Yeah. Totally. Fuck off hazbara.
