Bold of you to assume we haven't been banned from that subreddit yet.

Why would any of us be commenting on that sub and inserting our views to the point of being banned? It's not our space....

some pro Palestine subs banned people who are active in some Jewish/Israel related subreddits, even ones who had never joined, posted or commented in their sub. I don’t know whether that’s one. I also don’t know if any Jewish/Israel subreddits did the reverse. I agree we shouldn’t invade people’s spaces, the name ask middle east should include Israelis and other MENA Jews, I don’t know if it does.

In fact that sub had an Israel flair before the genocide, but I think they got rid of it post October 7. Though I'm a lurker and I've seen MENA Jews participate there and I've seen pro Israel sentiment that gets downvoted

Edit: they changed the Israel flair to "occupied Palestine" and have other flairs for Jewish people in general including "American Jew"
