I see this as an absolute win! The point of decentralized social media is that discussion happens across many different linked sites. It doesn't work if lemmy.world is the only big site out there.
Sure have your beef with the admins of another server, but why get upset that discussions are happening there?
It’s only really a problem when comments get removed or people get banned because they have opposing views.
Pro palestinian comments get removed on lemmy.world. Some people have the same argument as you but about diametrically opposing idealogy
I have not had a single Pro-Palestinian comment get removed from world, and I've had some pretty confrontational conversations in support of Palestinians.
That's been my experience as well
There's definitely not a concerted effort by the admins to suppress Palestinian support. What I'm hearing is you said something dumb that's technically "pro palestinian", and it got removed for being dumb.
Have an example? It should be in the modlog.

As the top comment points out, they banned Linkerbaan. You could argue it was a public service.
I don't agree with that user on most of the stuff but when it comes to israel you guys make them look like a normal person.
That's a lot of context to read through. Thank you for the link.
i've had a lot of discussion on palestine and israel across instances and so far i dont think i've had a comment directly removed over it. Granted i'm more moderate on the position and not an extremist in any case so that probably helps my case a lot but still...
