Introducing CLEANR® 2.0*: now for Mastodon and the fediverse. Our moderators are hard at work silencing and suspending accounts of Gazans from Palestine.
CLEANR® 2.0: making virtual ethnic cleansing a reality. Because life’s too short to see injustice™
* 100% of proceeds go to supporting Israel’s ongoing genocide of the Palestinian people.
The German government now intends to put into law to punish Germans with up to 5 years in jail if they deny Israel's "right to exist".
Such a law would of course very likely violate the German constitution, like virtually everything the current German government does these days. And Germany already has a law that protects anyone from incitement and hate against the group they belong to, including jews. A law that specifically protects Israel no matter what Israel does serves of course only to suppress valid criticism of genocide and Israel's hard-right course who currently want to attack Iran *again*. In a country that respects its own constitution, this planned law would never even have been proposed.
As I write this, Germany's foreign minister, Johann Wadephul, is on visit in Israel, Germany's "good and close friend", to "keep communications channels open" as public hostility towards Israel increases.
And Germany's minister of the interior, Alexander Dobrindt, and the federal presidents of Germany's police have had multiple visits in Israel, Germany's "natural partner", to start training each other's police and to learn from Israel how it controls a population in an apartheid state using technology and AI (the real, working all-too-well AI, like computer vision, not the LLMs that are sold to us as "AI").
I usually explain the difference between open source and free software as “open as in open for business versus free as in freedom” but maybe I should start using “open as in open to profiting from genocide” instead.
“While Red Hat’s release of open source software has been a positive force in the tech industry, the company has been directly involved in supporting, enhancing and profiting from the Israeli military apparatus, an apparatus charged with committing w…
Genocidal Israelis and their Zionist enablers everywhere: we see you, we are taking notes, and we will not forget. You will face justice. If not today, tomorrow.
Question: Has chaos.social taken any action against the moderator who muted accounts that are Gaza Verified? I mean, you understand what an inhumane action this is, yes?
“These accounts are verified as belonging to people suffering genocide in Palestine. I will now mute them.”

@kali @david We get a lot of reports for spam/donation requests in general. A couple of months ago, we muted accounts with a gazaverified link in their bio -- we reversed this decision when a user pointed this out to us, and have since taken great care to *not* take any moderation action against accounts with the gazaverified profile link, literally part of our mod checklist.
(I can't guarantee that we never get this wrong, but we're happy to fix mistakes if people talk to us.)
“While I was in Beirut another doctor told me the story of a child from Gaza who, after coming to Lebanon, learned that a man had died a natural death. The child did not understand. He did not know that death could come this way. It had to be explained to him, that people die of old age. The only cause of death the child knew was Israel. And he knew it well.”
