    Oh, I’m so so sorry about your ex… Yeah, I didn’t mean to downplay how much those online spaces can mean to us. It’s really awful that it was taken from you for not towing the mainstream line. I have a Palestinian flag pin that I put on my backpack but I take it off when I go into the office because no one at work would sympathise and I worry about retaliation for it, so I understand. Fucked up world we live in.

      I didn’t take it as a downplaying from your comment. 🙂 Just saying that it’s fucked up that those bastards are protecting Zionists’ emotions and banning people without considering that maybe their platform is somewhat important to the users they’re banning. And they’re doing it like cowards, with a senseless bot to which every word can be forbidden word.

      Oh, fuck reddit. I found Lemmy. 🙌

      Thank you. ❤️

      We do… Fortunately, my colleagues don’t say shit when I wear my keffiyeh, but even if they did, I’m feisty bitch and I would fight them over it. I’m just waiting if our stupid police will start to bug me, but I think they have bigger issues to deal with.
