We’ll they’re doing a terrible job of it. Everyday I hear a CBC report on Israeli war crimes.
You can feel this in other sites. For example, in Y Combinator’s Hacker News, most posts about the Palestinian genocide get flagged within minutes.
There’s no mad people there commenting that Israel is the people of God, because the discourse there is much more mature than most social aggregators, so the flagging is the only sign some people are watching and “sanitizing” these topics.
It’s obvious in HN because of the wide range of obscure topics (eg installing scaffolding on old British smoke stacks) that occasionally arise to the front page, all the ones on that topic are quickly flagged to oblivion.
You don’t have to be a genius to see the pattern 🤷♀️

It’s a programming/technology forum. It’s very off-topic and I expect that kind of subject to stay away from it. The bane of the modern internet is newbies posting random stuff all over the place without RTFM and without lurking more.
It allows world news too, since not all hackers are laser-focused in technology, and it’s normal to be interested in how the real world goes.
Still off-topic and should be flagged accordingly.
Front page has a link to the Ikea catalogue from 1951 to 2021.
Are you by any chance related to Israel in any way?
I don’t give a fuck about politics or nazi regimes. Politics are off-topic on tech forums. You’re deluded if you think that’s my argument.
The internet is filled with noobs who think their opinion on any subject is worth spamming every forum since the 90s and that’s annoying. We already had that on newsgroups in the beginning. You’re not worth it. Eternal September and stuff…
The ADL nazis knows how to trigger people like you wherever you are. They are the 4chan of the politics and it works. If we banned them everywhere, their job would be useless. By arguing and downvoting me, you proved them right. Keep on talking about them if it suits you.
