My concern is that any pro-Palestinian content gets axed (US/EU are very pro-Israel) Like the story about the HAMAS rapes/baby beheadings were completely uncorroborated - will any questioning of that be censored?

Right now in Germany we have real problems with the large amount of Muslims entering the country, the single reason why rightwing parties are coming to power. It’s a very delicate topic and polarized.

Now people spread propaganda garbage that _looks_ credible but is actually fake or several years old. This is adding kerosene into the fire and might ultimately lead to additional problems _ontop of_ the current suffering in the Middle East. I‘d prefer to not pile up additional issues instead of worrying about media underrepresentation of a side.

And what kind of rule do you imagine you could put in place that wouldn't also do things like van discussion of murder rate statistics?

> fascist propaganda

Huge opportunity here to censor your disfavored groups by calling them fascist, which has, in recent times, evolved from being a political science term, to being a very broad type of insult/accusation usable against almost anyone you don’t like.

As a German, I have a really good idea what actual fascism looks like, thank you. We have also laws that specify what types of content are illegal, and for very good (historical) reasons.

Define "fascist propaganda" without using the words "fascist" or "propaganda". Then consider whether your new spoken definition actually matches the set of things you want restricted. I'm very confident it will not.

How old are you? Are you talking about Neo-Nazis?

You also have a good idea of how you should go about censoring people and eliminating dissent l guess, if you want to use the "we were nazis" argument lol.

> I, for one, don’t want to see/read holocaust deniers, aggressive hate speech, or fascist propaganda.

The solution to this is to let people use filters.

Trying to have something like this as a rule ends up with existential conflict[1] over what the definitions and set of things allowed should be.

[1] For instance, my personal red line is about people being allowed to express their political views and I will happily physically fight you over this.

It’s not my personal feelings, we have actual laws over here for this. Some things like that have serious consequences. Why should we allow this hate on the internet suddenly?
