I guess not strictly news - but with all of the vitriol I have seen in discussions on the Israel situation, that have boiled down to arguments over wording, I feel that this take from the BBC is worthy of some discussion.

Mods, feel free to remove if this is not newsy enough.

      Did you click the link yet?

      Did you see the big red letters that say “banned” at the top?

      There’s nothing in the mod log because you weren’t banned from this community, you were banned from every community on lemmy.world by the instance admins.

      You want to prove me wrong? Sign in to that account and comment fucking anywhere in this thread.

          and i can comment.

          Just not from your banned account…

          This has gotten old tho, enjoy lemmy.world while you can, I’ve heard they actually can IP ban now. And since you’re bragging about how many alts you have already to evade bans, I’m sure a lot of people have already reported you.

          Your SJW account is super banned, which should be visible if you copy and paste the link they posted directly (it’s probably getting converted to your instance where the account isn’t banned). You can comment on LW posts on SJW, but they’ll only be seen locally (and I’ve heard maybe some other servers due to bans not working correctly). LW itself will just drop your posts.
