MODERATORS
Your comment in "How ‘Zionist’ became a slur on the US left" posted in !globalnews@lemmy.zip was removed.
Reason: Rule 4.
Please read the community rules.
How was it not inclusive? I mean, sure, it could interpreted as uncivil or bait, but rule 4? Something I've learned is the more vague you are, the more you cover your own ass. Hell, you could probably wrap rule 4 and 5 under rule 3, that'd work perfectly.
Your comment could have been removed under multiple rules, but rule 4 was used, as there is no need to disparage a religion. I'm no scholar, but courts decided that Muhammad actions didn't constitute a pedophilia.
You are welcome to express your opinion, no matter how popular or unpopular it might be. Just be nice.
Well fair, I didnt need to mention that they worship a pedophile.

You might want to pick up a book you illeterate. Muslims do not worship prophets.
And why are you pressed about a comment getting removed from your throwaway account. Pussy.
