The rules clearly state that that comm is for US politics only.
My contention, which I have clearly delineated in my comments, links and sources, is that you cannot state such a ridiculous policy and hope to apply it with any consistency, whether it be a problematic inconsistency such as around the Palestinian Genocide or more harmless species of inconsistency where the word “Blog” is enough to automatically bar an article from the community even when the contents of the website are clearly not a “Blog” in the way the rules intend to specify.
Jordan has spoken out on many occasions on the subject and probably agrees with you more than you’d care to admit.
No, Jordan’s beliefs scare the shit out of me, they are set up in gleeful ignorance to turn around and blame Israel and jews for those massive mess we have gotten ourselves into, it is so clear how the story being set up intentionally, unintentionally or some mixture of the two, is leading towards really scary anti-semitism as a replacement for more serious conversation about the direct complicity of the US along many different dimensions in the Palestinian Genocide.
Jordan repeats that the Palestinian Genocide is awful but that the US didn’t know and cannot be held responsible for what Israel is doing. Not only is it an amateur understanding of geopolitics to think the world works in such neat clean divisions, it is a dangerous fairy tale to believe in that disguises a more complex reality where we are far more complicit in the suffering around us then we want to admit.
Just follow the rules man.
Rules are not neutral, you cannot dismiss my criticism of them by just telling me to follow them.
There like, 30 or so other places you could post those links. You’re just trolling the comm at this point repeatedly posting that.
Please provide proof I am trolling, I post lots of links about a variety of topics. Only one very narrow category seems to get moderated by Jordan Lund and it worries me, it should worry you too.

The arguments from Lund’s defenders would make John Yoo proud. It’s weaponized feigned obtuseness, which I think is Lund’s M.O. as well.
