"censorship"

A domain was blocked from Antenna after a political post was made. That sounds bad.

The post in question

Follow-up upon learning of the ban

Another follow-up saying the same thing

I was a little shocked when I first encountered this yesterday, starting with the second link.

Then I read the original post and my shock transferred entirely elsewhere.

> Hamas and the Palestinians are essentially the same thing. The Palestinians are trained from infancy to hate Jews and to believe that dying in the act of murdering Jews is the height of glory and achievement.

Besides being a lie, this is an utterly despicable, de-humanizing, and genocide-cheering statement. There are few who would dispute the validity of Israel's stated goal of eradicating Hamas. Equating Hamas with all Palestinians is therefore an explicit call to wipe out an ethnic people group.

Look, I think the bar should be *really* high before we go banning someone from public discourse channels. My dude cleared it and then some.
