Recently Lemmy.World admins have heavily started pushing an MBFC bot in their
bigger subs despite it being deeply unpopular with the users. However rating
propaganda was not enough for the mods as they are now actively fundraising for
MBFC as well.

Evidence MBFC is ran by a Zionist: The bias towards any pro-israel lobby website
on MBFC is astoundingly obvious. Take for example UNWatch [https://unwatch.org].
UNwatch is still pushing the UNRWA is Hamas propaganda despite it being fully
debunked by every country.

Surely a website like this spreading blatant propagands would have a poor MBFC.
rating. Let’s check it out! [https://mediabiasfactcheck.com/un-watch/]

MBFC knows that UNWatch is an israeli lobby but just doesn’t think that’s very
important for their credibility rating

For sites criticizing israel it works the other way around. They do not have to
fail any fact checks, just being designated as a ‘hate group’ by an israeli
lobby is enough for MBFC to become a questionable source.

This is known to the lemmy.world admins and mods Over the course of the last 9
months I have pointed out multiple times in public and private messages that
MBFC is an incredibly bad source of ratings. Multiple other users have also made
summaries for the .World mods and admins over the last week (and before that).
The admins have willingly ignored this criticism and now added a donation link
to the MBFC bot knowing full well what MBFC stands for. Lemmy.World is directly
endorsing the Zionist media lobby.
Yes shure, but the black and white thing is what i understand as woke, we good everyone else evil, different opinions unwelcome, even if just slightly different. And thats what im seeing on LW as well.
I can definitely live with different opinions where opinions are reasonable (i don’t accept “opinions” that are just antisemitism or LGBT hate and similar things, actual racism and sexism just aren’t opinions) thats the problem, you cant reason with most people in the woke spectrum, the original idea of woke was being aware of racism and informing about it, great goal, but the “woke” now is as said basically a religion of close minded people.
Sounds to me like it is more about the people aggressively proclaiming “we good everyone else evil” and not so much about the actual people that are being called woke by the likes of trump and other right wing extremists… The people who actually think of themselves as woke are usually not in the extreme spectrum you are referring to.
I would think of myself as “woke” and I very much agree with your statement:
I can definitely live with different opinions where opinions are reasonable (i don’t accept “opinions” that are just antisemitism or LGBT hate and similar things, actual racism and sexism just aren’t opinions)
The woke the trumpists mean is just the new word for communism/socialism. They would definitely call me woke, while the actual woke would call me a conservative and the people i understand as woke did and do call me literally Hitler.
I don’t want to be associated with woke, especially not in my country (they played themselves into a corner and get more and more radical but that story would fill a 3 part documentary) but i do definitely align with a big portion of their reasonable points, in some points i have a little different perspective and therefore a slightly other stance, but thats already enough for the woke I mean to call me Nazi/literally Hitler. And the people i think of call themselves woke publicly or even argue that woke is a term that can only apply to black people because they started it (wich i would consider racism)
What is pretty much obvious from our debate here is that the meaning of a “woke” is depending on the person you ask. So maybe we should just not use that term when we want to criticize something, because nobody knows what exactly is meant by it.
But just FYI I have no idea which country you’re from or who the people are you’re referring to
