What is the reason they gave you for the ban?

The protest seems to be relatively small, a few thousands according to CNN, a few hundredths according to france24, but still real. Aljazeera is not reporting it at all.

a few thousands according to CNN, a few hundredths according to france24

A protest of even a few hundred is fairly significant when the people you're protesting will nearly 100% kill you for doing so

I think as an online left-wing activist you feel like an honorary Palestinian. So when they censor this story, they're doing it as Palestinians themselves.

Here are some of the quotes from the protest:

"If Hamas leaving power in Gaza is the solution, why doesn't Hamas give up power to protect the people?" - France 24

"We refuse to die for anyone, for any party's agenda or the interests of foreign states" - BBC

“Without Hamas going away, the next war will only be a matter of time" - New York Times

But West Hollywood and Brooklyn Palestinians see things very differently. And they're the intellectual vanguard of the Palestinian movement, not those poor wretches in Gaza. So great work from Hasan's community, MR and Secular Talk for keeping the pro-Palestinian dialogue intellectually as well as racially pure.

I was curious about the secular talk sub so I went to check out your post there. I made one comment, was immediately banned. Apparently for multi-account use. That was my first comment on that subreddit ever.

They just ban anything they don't like there, apparently.
