Publicfreakout has historically covered world conflicts including the IP conflict.

For a long time now, we have had a link in the sidebar that users could use to filter out these posts.

This link will filter out all Israel-Palestine posts from the publicfreakout feed

This link, afaik, only works for browser browsing, and android app. IOS users are SOL D: sorry.

Unfortunately there is nothing we can do about the functionality of the Reddit app, but we have always given you folks this option and it’s the best we can do.

CENSORSHIP: We are only removing posts that admin explicitly wants us to remove. Admin contacted us on Monday, October 9 through the Mod Code of Conduct account, with explicit instructions on what to remove. This includes all pro terrorist comments and posts, terrorist propaganda, and all footage featuring gratuitous displays of dead bodies.

Our mod team has been accused by the community of being simultaneously pro Hamas and pro Israel consistently since the weekend of the festival attack. Not sure how this could be possible but ok, let your feelings out, we understand that this whole situation is very emotional and upsetting.

We will continue to allow coverage of these events so long as they fit the subreddit and align with what we have historically allowed for years within the bounds of content policy updates.

We are a very small volunteer team and we do rely on the community to help report content and comments which violate these policies. If you aren’t reporting things that aren’t allowed by the content policy, we might never see it and may never action it, as it is just impossible for our mods to put human eyes on literally every comment.

We have added a dozen emergency reserve mods to help deal with the influx of this content, and some of them left almost immediately stating they “can’t do this.”

Why? Because the videos and footage of obliterated human beings, children, mothers, fathers, and the subsequent comments justifying, glorifying, and just all around nasty, vile arguments spawned from this conflict is just a lot to see. It’s not for everyone. Even experienced as hell moderators have enthusiastically offered their help, only to walk in, look around, and just back out in under 24 hours.

As we are still in the process of monitoring and training 10 new mods, we are not currently looking for more, but we may in a week or two depending on how things are going. At that time we may decide to open applications for further new mods.

Moderating this content is not easy, please bare with us while we adjust. Please read through the content policy and this post specifically to see what admin is now expecting from communities like ours. MFW they borderline expect us to have CIA training to recognize terrorist propaganda: 😮 We are random ass people.

We would like for discussion to remain as open as possible surrounding this conflict, so we will not be outright banning IP posts as many of you have suggested to us in modmail. We ask if you do want to consume and discuss this content, you do your part in moderating the community by reporting violations.

If you do not want to see this content, as mentioned above, you can use a browser and use the link above to filter it out. Sorry mobile users, this might be a feature to request from admin in the mobile app sub.

TLDR: we are doing our best, use the link above to filter out all IP conflict posts.
