Over the past week or two, I’ve been discussing merging this community with c/world. The intents and purposes of both of these communities are essentially the same, and we don’t really see a reason to divide that community rather than just put it all under one roof.

We’re open to any and all opinions on this, and nothing is set in stone so please feel free to reply candidly.

Please speak up especially if you feel like:

  1. You wouldn’t like this for really any reason

  2. You feel this community already serves a different purpose

  3. You feel this community could serve a different purpose, and include what changes you’d like to see to meet that goal.

I work with the head mod of c/world, @[email protected], on c/NFL and talk to him regularly, we’re both pretty much on the same page about everything and moderate communities in a similar manner, so if your only reservation would be possible stricter or different moderation, I hope that alleviates some of the concern. All of the mods from here would also be welcome to join over there if we do merge.

    I honestly don’t know how people post these sources (or why you’re posting that here for that matter). There’s all these random Israeli firms with names like “NGO Monitor” or “UN Watch” that are just basically pundit organizations dressed up as watchdogs. Sketchy as hell.

    Q: What is NGO Monitor?

    A: NGO Monitor, a project of the Institute for NGO Research, is an independent and nonpartisan research institute dedicated to promoting transparency and accountability of NGOs claiming human rights agendas, primarily in the context of the Arab-Israeli conflict.

    NGO Monitor is the leading source of information on political NGOs active in delegitimization campaign against Israel and the role of both government and private funders-enablers.

    ^ Note how this is their entire stated purpose as an organization. This is so weird.
