I don't think this post is anti semitic or promoting a hateful ideology, it is me expressing a known fact that Israel and its lobby groups heavily lobbying the US. Simple as that.

My account was just suspended, I highly recommend anyone who has this viewpoint to simply not express it here. The fediverse and Mastodon and Lemmy are all a sham.

Really disappointed to be honest. I was hoping I could post my opinion and not have the left wing brigade show up to censor me or "educate" me. Fuck censorship and fuck Israel.

UPDATED: net::ERR_CONNECTION_REFUSED when I try to appeal on mstdn.ca....lol talk about spiteful. Must be a Montreal server. Big Jewish population in Montreal. Makes sense....added their API to my blokada Blocklist.

Someone is paying the USAs debt, and we all know who it is.

I think you found your reason.

So I'm going to be very charitable here and say that the main problem is that your analysis is eye-wateringly dumb, which has made you accidentally invoke an antisemitic trope.

The state of Israel is awful in so many ways, and there are lots of contentious things you can day about it — it's an ethno-state operating a defacto apartheid system, for example — without resorting to facile shit about Jewish money lenders

Also OP, you might want to look into running your own Mastodon instance. It's going to present a challenge if you don't have a technical background but you learn a whole lot. The only real way to beat censorship is by being your own service provider. I have some very strong opinions (none that are hate-based but can be controversial) so I don't want to be at the mercy of some random sysadmins inability to see things objectively.

The idea that Israeli lobbyists are singlehandedly "paying off the US' debt" is so patently absurd that I can easily see someone interpreting it as anti-semetic. Criticizing pro-Israel lobbyists is one thing, but when you start implying that Israeli lobbyists literally control the US government, I think you're stepping into clearly anti-semetic territory.

That alongside the wink-wink nudge-nudge "we all know who it is" comment really pushes this post over the edge. You're clearly parroting anti-semetic tropes, intentional or not.
