Neither thing is allowed. Censoring because you mention "jew" is not allowed and it isn't "off topic" if the topic is about jews or jewish companies like BlackRock.

But I went through the moderator log and not all of the removed comments had jew in it.

They shadow banned this comment:

What's the turtle idea?

I think that confirms that you are right and my original assumption was wrong. The automod shadow bans users. This is troublesome because if nothing else it breaks intended transparency of public logs of bans, which is part of Saidit's core mission. I think /u/magnora7 is not going to like that.

But even if your assumption was correct, it still wouldn't be "off topic" to say that Larry Fink, the ceo of BlackRock, is a jew when talking about Larry Fink or BlackRock. It is factual and it is relevant to the topic, hence "on topic".

If 90% of the things they post about is related to jews, then that is relevant to those topics to point out. This wouldn't happen by coincidence. Jews are a small 2% minority so we would expect their representation in problematic issues to be 2%, once every 50 post

I really respect the strong argument you present, but I'm sorry, I disagree. It's getting late for me. Maybe we can discuss this another time. My hope is that you get an accommodation for the issue that you raised with WOTB. Have a great night.

Goodnight to you
