Hi there.
A short introduction: This is an alt account. I’m a moderator here who has been unhappy with the state of news/political discussions here for a long time. The admins have kindly given me the opportunity to see if we can make some improvement the community here.
We will be doing some major revision of the rules left by the previous moderators and will use discussions in this thread as feedback on the direction we should take our community.
This will be an open discussion on the state of our community, the rules and our moderation practices. Feel free to give your inputs.
Will this be a pro Palistine or pro Israel site now? I need to know which side so I don’t get banned for not following the hivemind.
Individual moderators will have their personal opinion, but we will absolutely not conduct our moderation based on our personal stances and will aim to be fair.
In other words, neither, but you are encouraged discuss civilly and to provide sources to back up your claims in your comments.
Let’s see what happens—unsubscribing until I see positive change.
As long as articles provide sufficient evidence to seem credible they should all be allowed. Dunking on Hamas is fine as long as they actually did the thing they’re being accused of. 40 beheaded babies didn’t really do that hot with the evidence.
In general, a lot of “news” ends up being bullshit spun around a single organization or think tank’s position under the guise of independent journalism.
Welcome to American news.
u just posted an article that “presumes” idf is stealing organs. no real evidence. this smell of hypocracy is it not.

How about a pro-credible-news site now?
Ah soak so pro-Palestinian, good choice.
If Israel starts allowing independent journalists in and stops killing journalists…
