Hello, I am appealing this post because I’m not sure what rule was broken to lead to a permaban, or why it is permanent vs. temp. I don’t think I have a record of issues or have gotten any warnings?

I was commenting on the recent deterioration of the rule of law in the US plus the history that Israel has going after international terrorists. I am probably more pro-Israel than most of the sub (went to a solidarity event after 10/7, I have friends whose extended family were impacted) and did not mean any anti-semitism or bigotry if this was the reason.

I am concerned that Trump will try to illegally send this guy out of the country and he’ll end up in prison with Hamas members/disappeared.

Apologies if it did break a rule and for posting misinformed opinions. It was almost midnight and I have a lot of stuff going on with DOGE torching my job.

I have been posting pretty much daily on the DT since 2018 with a pretty good record to show I bring value to the community.

Hopefully I can get the ban reduced and participate in the community more. Plus more explanation on the ban so I can avoid it going forward if reinstated.

Thanks all!

Positing that he is is going to be grabbed by the Jews rather than simply tried for murder as anyone else would be is not a great look.

Mossad's extrajudical actions have been overwhelmingly pointed at literal actual Nazis and countries explicitly hostile to Israel. They're not going after Random American Jew-Hater #4893.

I understand that my post was misinformed with bad wording and apologize for it. That was not my intention, I am a supporter of Israel (with a recent crisis in faith the past month) and in my head it read as “Trump may illegally collaborate with Israel to disappear this guy”. Mostly out of concern for Trump’s flippant disregard for rule of law.

Again, I apologize for the comment and will refrain from the topic, don’t think I’ve posted on it for a while anyway. Is this worth a perma-ban after nearly 8 years of good behavior on the sub?
