Disappointing, but not surprising. If you want to know why I quit the federation, this is why. The complete lack of accountability combined with abusive moderation is beyond toxic. No normal person is going to join a system like that.
I have downloaded my archive but have zero desire to ever return to mastodon.

Fair, I had a post removed a long time ago which I made a post about on here. I referred to it. They claim it was holocast inversion but all I said was that the zionists worked with the nazis to expel semites and that palestine is an extension of that, which is literally what happened. I made it very clear I wasn’t referring to jewish people as anything other than a victim, but they didn’t care. In their mind, zionism = jewish even though zionism was initially a Christian movement.
Important note to bring up: conflating zionism with Judaism is anti-semitism, but what do you expect from a german instance?
EDIT: my comment removal email shines light into exactly what they found umbrage in. The last one is especially revealing.
EDIT2: They were very fast to reject my appeal.
Zionism is a Christian movement? That’s news to me.
Also - do you think Nazis worked with Zionists on a regular basis? How prevalent do you think your claim is?
You should be able to prove what you say if you claim that is “literally what happened”, no?
I would very much like to see your original post, and not your depiction of it.
The idea was to get the jewish people out of germany. Sure they weren’t as gung-ho about murdering them as the other factions in germany, forced displacement is still very much classified as genocide. And yes, zionism very much started as christian thing, that’s why conflating zionism with judaism is by definition antisemitism; they’re two completely different things.
I edited the previous comment with the removal log so you can see for yourself what they clapped me on. It’s pretty revealing.
They instantly removed a comment of mine saying Israel doesn’t have the right to exist.
Yeah its a bit shrill but holy shit it only took them like 5 minutes
Why does mastodon.social represent “the federation”?
To be honest, anyone that uses mastodon.social is likely an idiot.
I chose it because it’s the biggest one. It wasn’t my first choice; the other instance I started on was too small to serve much purpose.
Define purpose
I don’t feel comfortable flooding a small server about a niche subject with generalist content. Kind of goes against the spirit of the server.
There are general servers that aren’t the main three big ones. But that’s beside the point, looking at what you linked above, you’re clearly on a crusade to make everything see things from your point of view, no matter how patchy the logic is. The people of Palestine are fighting for their lives and you want to use them for Internet point scoring, even going as far to bring the Russia-Ukraine war into it. Don’t you think that’s a little twisted?
Just for record, people don’t want to bring down Jews, Russians, Ukrainians or even Americans. They want to bring down the systems that empower them to do fuckeries to normal people who deserve better.
Sheesh yeah i’m out. If this is what the federation has become then I want no part in it. It’s not about me, it’s about fascism.
The only reason I speak out is because if they’re doing this to me they’re no doubt doing this to a lot more people. I’d rather allow some record of it happening instead of just allowing bad actors a monopoly over the narrative. Journalists much prefer it when people speak out instead of just going silent in the face of oppression.
