As a mod, what I can say is this:

If something of yours is removed, or you receive a ban, send us a message. We can work through it. Also, if you see something, report it.

We’re volunteers, and don’t police every comment or post, as we have full-time jobs. We tend to look at the reports, try to gather some context if time allows, then take action or not, based on the community rules.

Thanks for your feedback. I really appreciate it!

Looking back, that was a bad day, with tons of reports coming in, and I believe the mod team was just working the reports as fast as they could.

It’s not that simple though; Israel wants to eliminate Hamas (and they have plenty of reason for that – if Mexico attacked the US like Hamas attacked Israel, there would simply put no longer be a Mexico). It would be tone deaf to Israel to say “leave Gaza” without that mission accomplished. They claim they don’t even want the area, they just want Hamas gone. Furthermore, Hamas is fighting with guerilla tactics. They’re intentionally trying to provoke war crimes. Israel doesn’t have to be so dang willing to fall for the trap. However, Hamas is making it exceptionally hard to fight a clean war from what I’ve read. Citizens in the Gaza strip are not just being abused by the IDF but by Hamas. I wouldn’t be surprised if Biden has his own Intel to back that all up. If it were as obvious as people want it to be, I’m pretty sure we would’ve stopped sending aid by now.

This was the comment. Emphasis added.

The reason a mod called it bad faith: Israelis were actively settling the land after the IDF cleared it out.

It was me who liked HFY. for the stories, not the moderation

1. It was 5 months ago
2. when a user is actively commenting and violating the community rules, we may ban, then remove content.
3. When it is an active thread, we may accidentally put the wrong reason - yours was actually “multiple rule violations”, but it appears I mixed you and someone else up when putting in the reason.
4. You were being an ass
5. YESTERDAY you reached out to us for help. I explained I don’t like perma banning, and I was willing to work with you. I linked to your mod log, and invited you to appeal the ban. You decided to not appeal it, and called my moderation team corrupt fascist .
