> allowed criticism of Israel to go viral
Typically the things that get deplatformed are not well-reasoned criticism so much as emotional outbursts full of barely coherent rhetoric anyway... (this comment should not be interpreted as taking a position on the issue).
- mjfl 2y agoEven if that were true - is that a valid excuse for censorship? Certainly not. Freedom of speech means freedom of speech. Period. It doesn't mean freedom of speech that you personally agree with or that passes some arbitrary bar of rhetorical quality.
- aaomidi 2y agoWith Israel coverage, companies have had leaked moderation guidelines to remove practically anything critical of Israel.
- birksherty 2y agoNo. It's not criticism but more about able to broadcast directly what is going on in gaza. Western media were not showing that at the beginning or they were only showing what Israel allowed them to. Politicians were not happy that tiktok had those raw footage. It's not criticism but trying to hide reality.
