That’s not true as far as I’ve been led to believe, especially from rumors I’ve heard about the moderation here, but all the web searches I was willing to commit the time to only gave results for their most recent bill to outright criminalize criticism of Israel.
Yes, it‘s being considered to create such a law for Israel, so it would become nearly impossible to discuss Germany‘s role in the genicode, since you could easily get reported for the most minor things.
Currently you’d usually be confronted with an anti-semite accusation, if you criticize Israel slightly too harsh, from which the state prosecutor would have to make a case for hate speech, and that’s just not a thing in this context.
But that‘s what I‘m saying, the feddit comms do this preemptively, without the law even being a thing.
The europe comm rule says „don‘t question the statehood of Israel“.
The DACH and Deutschland comm‘s even go as far as to delete posts about the topic, per their own rule.
There are no more comms significant enough, other than ich_iel, which has no such rule, but is a meme comm. I don‘t know, yet, how they handle the topic. It‘s fairly large, but not really that relevant here.

I wrote a comment with more details
Yeah this is a whole mess I don’t know if I have the time and energy to pick apart, but I’m glad someone is out there trying to.
In closing:
I don’t like what Israel is doing to Palestine. If that means I’m a criminal in Germany or should be banned from this instance, so be it.
