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

      Can we switch accounts please?/s Actually in one of the replies a person mentioned that it might be because of the mod actions not federating properly to kbin/mbin, and it’s actually sounds as a logical reason, especially if you say that you haven’t seen what I’m describing.

    What’s different about Lemmy compared to other sites? The Palestine/Israel conflict is the main topic point today. Everyone is talking about it everywhere, whether it be Reddit or Twitter. Are you up to date on the news?

    I mean… while I defend the right of Israel to defend themselves from attacks, they’re basically committing genocide in the name of “defense” by not discerning between innocent Palestinians and Hamas. And thus, they have become the bad guys through their bad actions and are getting a lot of hate over it.

    Maybe it might because Israel is in the wrong? Maybe overreacting a bit and committing something awfully close to genocide? Just a thought.

    This morning I read some statistic that approx 73% of all internet traffic is bots & shills.

    So that might have something to do with this phenomenon you’re experiencing.
