    Lol, this comment was legitimately censored for making the joke “Jews… are controlling the media?”

      Yes, antisemitism will be removed even when it’s a “joke.”

      Edit: I thought about it more, then did some quick searching and it actually shouldn’t be a joke.

      What shouldn’t be a joke?

      It’s sad that we’re not even allowed to mention how they censor us without being censored.

      We know where “ironic” bigotry tends to lead: to an online space becoming a Nazi bar.

      It’s not censorship; it’s content moderation — how hard is it to not make racist jokes on an ostensibly ML forum‽

        It is 100% censorship when what I’m saying accurately describes reality.

        We’re literally not allowed to say the truth because of censorship.
