@[email protected] is banning people on lemmy.world's largest communities for saying that Israel is like the 51st US state. He's declaring that this is "misinformation"

In polite society it is a controversial statement to call another sovereign country a US state. If you if you don’t understand why then maybe you should look inward toward your biases, or maybe understand what it actually means to be a US state. Nice hot take though.
