Been lurking on Lemmy for a while but overall still new, how do you know what’s removed and by who?
You see them by checking the mod log. It is on the bottom part of the sidebar (where the description of the community is).
Oh thanks I was confused. Think my app shows them all anyways. Was curious to see what had been being deleted lol. Thanks! Learned about being able to see the mod log :D
Maybe those pages should find a new platform that’s not owned by Meta
Well, there is Mastodon and Lemmy, but most platforms are owned by Zionist oligarchs
Ok then.
I don’t necessarily disagree with the comic but why ask fediverse users to remember to go visit Facebook/Instagram pages if they’re evil?
It is for those who use the platform. If they do not use it, by no means start now.
The solution is for people to stop using the platform, not regularly check in with it. The messaging is totally backwards here.
Creators need to leave those sites. This just encouraging people to give Meta more analytics and ad revenue.
I took into consideration your point and changed the title of the comic
thata not true my insta feed is overflowing with Palestine stuff and i don’t follow any related pages
Just like you won’t hear about the Chinese genocide of the Tibetans and Uyghurs on TikTok.
My comment was removed for mentioning China, the note from the mod: “there is no genocide in China” hahaha what the fuck

The Cold War had only a brief pause before the pivot to Asia. The US tried to foment unrest in China by funding and organizing terrorist cells in Xinjiang, and when those efforts failed it concocted and promoted a genocide narrative. Antony Blinken is still pushing this slop, just last week.
- The Xinjiang Genocide Allegations Are Unjustified
- The Uyghur Human Rights Project is a product of the National Endowment for Democracy, which is the American government’s main regime change NGO.

We see here for example the evolution of public opinion in regards to China. In 2019, the ‘Uyghur genocide’ was broken by the media (Buzzfeed, of all outlets). In this story, we saw the machine I described up until now move in real time. Suddenly, newspapers, TV, websites were all flooded with stories about the ‘genocide’, all day, every day. People whom we’d never heard of before were brought in as experts — Adrian Zenz, to name just one; a man who does not even speak a word of Chinese.
Organizations were suddenly becoming very active and important. The World Uyghur Congress, a very serious-sounding NGO, is actually an NED Front operating out of Germany […]. From their official website, they declare themselves to be the sole legitimate representative of all Uyghurs — presumably not having asked Uyghurs in Xinjiang what they thought about that.
The WUC also has ties to the Grey Wolves, a fascist paramilitary group in Turkey, through the father of their founder, Isa Yusuf Alptekin.
Documents came out from NGOs to further legitimize the media reporting. This is how a report from the very professional-sounding China Human Rights Defenders (CHRD) came to exist. They claimed ‘up to 1.3 million’ Uyghurs were imprisoned in camps. What they didn’t say was how they got this number: they interviewed a total of 10 people from rural Xinjiang and asked them to estimate how many people might have been taken away. They then extrapolated the guesstimates they got and arrived at the 1.3 million figure.
Sanctions were enacted against China — Xinjiang cotton for example had trouble finding buyers after Western companies were pressured into boycotting it. Instead of helping fight against the purported genocide, this act actually made life more difficult for the people of Xinjiang who depend on this trade for their livelihood (as we all do depend on our skills to make a livelihood).
Any attempt China made to defend itself was met with more suspicion. They invited a UN delegation which was blocked by the US. The delegation eventually made it there, but three years later. The Arab League also visited Xinjiang and actually commended China on their policies — aimed at reducing terrorism through education and social integration, not through bombing like we tend to do in the West.
The problem is you are on .ml
There is no war in Ba Sing Se
Why aren’t people protesting colleges about China’s genociding?
China genociding is dog-bites-man. We expect them, or Russia, to be murderous authoritarian shitheads.
People expect better of a supposedly liberal democracy and western ally. Israel is a man-bites-dog story.
But the protests are all about investments in a country committing genocide right? Why no demands to pull investment from China?
