Matthew Field – The Telegraph July 9, 2024
Facebook will suppress attacks on Jewish people as “Zionists”, warning the term is used to mask anti-Semitism.
The social network said it will take down more posts that substitute the words “Jew” or “Israeli” for “Zionist”, other than in cases where the word is explicitly used to discuss Zionism as a political movement.
Meta, the parent company of Facebook and Instagram, already bans abuse based on protected characteristics such as a person’s race, sexuality or disability, although attacks on political positions and beliefs are allowed.
While Zionism originated as a political movement to establish a Jewish state in Palestine, Meta said the word “Zionist” was being used as a slur against Jews more generally.
Meta said it will target content that uses “anti-Semitic stereotypes, or threatens other types of harm through intimidation or violence directed against Jews or Israelis under the guise of attacking Zionists”.
Meta had previously barred specific phrases using the word “Zionist”, such as those comparing “Zionists” to “rats”, an anti-Semitic trope.
But the company said its current moderation rules did “not sufficiently address the ways people are using the term ‘Zionist’ online and offline”.
The World Jewish Congress said Meta’s decision “marks a significant step in combating the veiled anti-Semitism that has proliferated under the guise of political discourse”.
From now on, Meta will explicitly ban posts that claim “Zionists” are in control of the world or the media. It will also block posts that use the term to make dehumanising comparisons or call for physical harm.
The new policy could force a major change for how Meta handles complaints about anti-Semitic posts online.
The term “Zionist” has been widely used in protests – online and offline – against Israel’s actions during the war in Gaza. An estimated 38,000 Palestinians have been killed in the conflict, according to figures from the Hamas-run Gazan health ministry.
Meanwhile, a search for the term “Zionist” among hashtags on Instagram still showed recommendations including “#Zionistterror” and “#Zionistsarenazis”.
While the decision was welcomed by Jewish groups it has proved controversial among pro-Palestinian campaigners.
More than a dozen activist groups had signed an open letter to Mark Zuckerberg opposing the classification, arguing “Palestinians should be able to name the political ideology that impacts their survival without fearing reprisals”.
This is quite complicated–the Scum are saying “Ya, you say Zionist but you really mean Jews cos you hate all Jews!” but it is usually cucks who DARE NOT say Jews, and say “Zionists” instead, so the accusation is false, while I wish it were true, since Zionist Jews are far from being the only bad ones
Tell all your buds and make it stick:
NO to facebook, google, myspace, ALL the crypto crap, and even any old yahoo accounts you still might have.
Duckduckgo was an okay search engine a few years ago but myself and the people I talk to say Yandex is the least corrupt as of now. In case of World War Three it might not work because it’s Russian. Let’s hope not — it’s a damn good search engine.
LOL…
Even though jewish power is a boot that stomps on your face daily (thanks George or should I call you Eric?)…and in many cruel and imaginative ways…you still have hordes of imbeciles blaming their woes on nazis and jesuits and satanists…when all they need to do is log on to their faceborg account or e-mail the Fiends of Israel at the Torygraph…
For a good kosher stomping..
…they are after all already equating dissent with auntysemenism and terrorisms..so you and your loved ones will probably eventually get bombed as a bonus…
Yeah tell us about it. They banned our leader Nico X on FB years ago, after posting comments on their news feed for weeks. Everywhere he goes they either ban him like on Unz or send their cass sunstein agents targeting him. He told me on one site some cass sunstein agent or nutter starting bothering him about using the word ‘nazi’. Now we know whose message ZWOG fears.
Didn’t good Doctor Goebbles utter words to the effect that when Jews begin to be protected by [fake] laws, it is usually the beginning of the end for the Jews?
This time, they ALL must be disenfranchised and deported, with all their worldly wealth clawed back and confiscated and used to offset their crimes.
Plus, all Jews who are guilty of Capital crimes must be punished to the full extent of the law!
If these cvnts don’t stop they will instigate massive pogroms.

Its true, the only movement or message they fear spreading is the message and movement of Nico X.
Who are all the people who were behind the Covid 19 ‘vaccination’? Obvious to anyone who looks

%100 right Franz! Everybody needs to vote with their feet, Faceborg is doing this because THEY CAN. Using such services can be very convenient, IT MAY SEEM. Til they do things like this. I have only used Yandex once or twice, Duckduckgo as default. Have a Yahoo account (and they don’t call it yahoo for nothing) but they’re off the cliff lately, trying to wean myself off them.
Point is, there are alternatives, we need to use them!
