I'm thinking perhaps it'd make sense to ban people based on terms that are less nebulous than "Zionism"?

For example, how about banning people who:

  • Deny or excuse clear cases of genocide, like the genocide in Gaza, the Armenian genocide or the Holocaust.
  • And/or support the systematic oppression of people based on ethnicity, religion, gender, sexual orientation, etc.

This should make the rules clearer to both users and moderators, because you can pretty much rely on the dictionary definitions of the terms involved. It'd also make it much harder to argue that the rules are in any way inspired by anti-Semitism.

Moreover, because it gets down to the reasons and thresholds that make a lot of Zionist messages unacceptable, it also covers cases that are unacceptable for similar reasons.

    Only time something like that happened to me was when LTT got hacked. I was suddenly subscribed to some channels promoting a crypto scam pretending to have ties with Elon Musk. Turns out they had hacked and renamed a bunch of channels owned by the Linus Media Group.

    Are any of your previous subscriptions missing?
