He’s been doing it non-stop ever since. The only reason dang even did that is because he banned an anti-genocide poster and another commenter pointed out the double standard on this site.
Besides, this policy systemically discriminates against minorities and minority opinions.
Jews are a minority and there are a large number of accounts here that are regularly posting extreme anti-Israel content, that is often exaggerated, misleading, or downright fabricated (such as this post).
If Jewish accounts would try to counter and give their side of the story every time that happens, their accounts would overwhelmingly be about one topic.
This combined with the ability of a majority to downvote a comment to invisibility ensures you get an echo chamber in here that is irrationally bigoted and misinformed.
One could argue that supporting the state of Israel as it currently stands and behaves is antisemitic, judging by the fact that its actions create huge negative sentiment about it and international isolation.

I’m under no illusion that I can have a rational discussion with you on the topic. My point was to @dang and anyone else reading this.
If you read it again you will see that I did not say that ultra orthodox jews are nazis, but a subset of those (the settlers) behave like nazis. Perpetuating the circle of violence.
Hope you had fun going through 5 months of my comments to find something you can complain about.
