 In the past few days, On X all the major accounts critical of Israel have either been permanently banned or deboosted by up to 90%, both left and right. It seems like a wave. 

We will witness more of these waves as the US election approaches.

This year, we have to position Nostr as a viable alternative.

 🤔 I wonder if this could be used as a predictor. Is an important news story get published? Is some big, official move/announcement about to be made?

If so, does it correlate each time we see drastic changes like this? 
 Persia is reawakening. Hang on to your hats. Gonna get wild. 
 I doubt it.  
 Didn't say they were gonna win. I said awakening. There will be blood. 
 I know, I doubt they're awakening. 
They're psyop'd to death by their cult leaders and the CIA. 
Iran is a CIA-run country.  
 fair 
 Israel is a confirmed participant in Expo 2025 in Japan, while Russia is excluded because war is incompatible with the bright ideals of the future. 
 incredible 🤦 
 Isn't it insane. You can't scroll through social media today without seeing hundreds of images of dead Palestinian babies.

International law is a joke and a weapon used by a few nations to destroy any sovereign nation around the world. 
 I want Expo 2025 to give a platform for Russia, Ukraine, Israel and Palestine, because we should build the future together, but apparently today's politicians have a different opinion. 
 "Expo"? What are they going to expose? 
It's all trash, mate. 
The real technology gets buried deep deep under ground.  
 maybe Hamas should stop using children as human shields? 
 Everyone uses children as shields. It's a very common practice in modern warfare. 
 Not a surprise in the least.

 Night of the Long Knives 
 Elon seems to be best buddies with Israel lobby puppet Ben Shapiro 
 No wonder the Brooklyn tunnel story disappeared so quickly :) 
 That really started this censorship wave. 
 Slippery slope. "Can't talk about guillotines, guys, sorry." 
But legally speaking the people behind this war deserve the capital punishment many times over. 
If you can't talk about it, then what else we can't talk about? 
"Well, many things!", say the people that should be legally hanged. 

Their stolen money is the only one allowed to speak.  
 Free speech (as long as you don't say what I don't want) 
 Nooo.... REALLY???

Who could have known they would do that???  I mean, its not like putting a WEF-PUPPET as CEO is a red flag or anything.  

X will censor like mad when the time comes. 
 Perfect. Twitter should ban everyone: arabs, jews, left, right, up, down, all of them. Keep the robots. 
 Every once in a while i'm mentioning nostr to personal friends, ones who got / will get their account suspended, twitter/x or instagram, because they're speaking out against oppressors.

It's very sad this is happening, but glad there's nostr during these times. 
 Its not just #Israel
Its #Kennedy24 also
Im so banned I cant even read my Princess Catherine gossip anymore
Im disgusted 
 And I hate you because you’re Rupert Murdoch’s puppet 

I wonder if I will get demoted here? 🤔 
 Nah, I don't think he's a boomer. 
Also nice ad hominem. ✌  
 Sorry.., my original post was directed @jack my b oops 
 Israel is definitely more human than Hamas. 
What kind of people criticize Israel? 
 Principled people 
 Seem to be missing the point... free speech. 
 I'm learning English, and my English expression ability is bad. 
 @kevin_strom can't be the sole dissident of note of use Nostr natively. 
 People paying to for a service that shadow bans them is pretty brutal.

 The Musk got an offer he couldn't refuse.
