Meta to broaden hate speech policy to remove more posts targeting 'Zionists' (www.middleeasteye.net)

Meta has said it will expand its hate speech policy to cover more uses of the word "Zionist" when applied to Jews or Israelis on its platform.

We will now remove messages targeting 'Zionists' in several areas where our investigation has shown that the term tends to be used to refer to Jews and Israelis, with dehumanising comparisons, calls to harm, or denials of existence," the company said in a press release on Tuesday.

In December, Human Rights Watch said that Meta was guilty of “systemic censorship of Palestine content” during Israel's war on Gaza.

Calling for the eradication of a religious ethnostate that engages in genocide and colonialism is surprisingly a good thing.

Or do you think it was bad the world eradicated Nazi Germany?

That's an excellent historical analogy — too bad you've misunderstood it. Germany was not dissolved after WW2, and its population was not thrown to the wolves. We only replaced their government. I agree that Likud needs to go (ideally to the Hague) but the people here wanting to wipe the country from the map are dangerous lunatics.

The countries of East and West Germany would like a word with you. The state of Nazi Germany very clearly ceased to exist.

What? No it did not. What are you even trying to say?
