Why is *all* of Lemmy filled with Anti Israel content?
Fitik@fedia.io to 
I hope I will not get downvoted because I'm genuinely wondering
Lemmy almost has no users from neither Israel or Palestine, however most of communities filled with Anti Israel content, I even tried muting all news related communities, but now I see anti Israel content in completely unrelated communities, like !android@lemmy.world and !memes@sopuli.xyz
Is there a reason why Lemmy is so fixated on Israel/Palestine? Neither of other world conflicts get even close in terms of attention. It's neither a case on my microblogging Fediverse account or my most "algoritmic" social media, even kbin part of the Threadiverse seems not as obsessed with it, what's so different about Lemmy?
(Sorry for a bit clickbait-y title)
Edit: I actually might take down this post because half of people in replies completely misunderstood it
I am talking about apolitical communities, or those that are supposed to be apolitical at least, i apologize if I haven't made it clear enough in my original thread.
Apolitical communities formed of people that are otherwise more politically active sorts may see a little more politics than normal, during particularly emotional times.
It's more about the people than the community.
I completely understand it and your point is valid. However, I was talking about communities unrelated to it, I am not even apolitical myself, I say so because I usually have 2 separate accounts for interacting with political content and non political one, but when I tried to do it on Threadiverse - I failed.
Right. I was just saying that communities that are completely, 100% unrelated to politics, may begin to see more politics, during particularly emotional times.
So, in a community completely unrelated to politics, people can still talk about politics unless it is against the rules. So, during times when people are sad, angry or otherwise upset, it kinda just creeps in?
Make sure that if you really want to stay away from it, you look for communities where political discussion is specifically a ban-able offense. Those will usually have a lot less fighting and arguments.
As for why there is so much of this on Lemmy specifically, it's because we are probably more politically active than most of the rest of the internet.
That's what I thought too, I mentioned in this reply that it was like that everywhere when the war have just started and when the Israel started to respond https://fedia.io/m/asklemmy@lemmy.world/t/433028/-/comment/2729986 However, it has been 59 days since the war start already and I don't see any less talking about this issues, unlike in other social media where it is limited to the political communities.
And thanks for the thoughtful and full response, it might be one of the best explanations I got in those replies, pretty well written.
No problem. That would start to bleed into the second of the questions I proposed earlier, and frankly, the Israeli-Palestinian Conflict is just special. Like, unique in many ways. So it dominates when it's around, that's the same every time it fires back up. There's a lot of storied history, rooted in things everyone has studied and at least vaguely understands.
And this particular flare-up is particularly huge. Lots of big explosions, lots of footage, lots of carnage.
We don’t see any less genocide either.
Zionists can't help but cry regardless of what community they're in. Add lemmy's general stance against apartheid and oppressive government and you have a community primed to "pick on israel" when they're actually just expressing their opinions. The zionists love to make themselves the victim regardless of actual circumstances
Lemmy doesn't have many enforced apolitical communities. Because even the meaning of apolitical is contentious and arguably political.
Actually, suprisingly, maybe not "enforced" but it does have a lot of vibrant and different communities not related to politics.
I mean the moderators don't usually take down political things from what I've seen. Memes on .ml for example is specifically okay with propaganda posters.
And every other nations’ propaganda, notably Western’ nations. * appear on every other instance.
There is no such thing as an "apolitical" community - not here on the fediverse or anywhere else.
