I hope I will not get downvoted because I’m genuinely wondering

Lemmy almost has no users from neither Israel or Palestine, however most of communities filled with Anti Israel content, I even tried muting all news related communities, but now I see anti Israel content in completely unrelated communities, like [email protected] and [email protected]

Is there a reason why Lemmy is so fixated on Israel/Palestine? Neither of other world conflicts get even close in terms of attention. It’s neither a case on my microblogging Fediverse account or my most “algoritmic” social media, even kbin part of the Threadiverse seems not as obsessed with it, what’s so different about Lemmy?

(Sorry for a bit clickbait-y title)

Edit: I actually might take down this post because half of people in replies completely misunderstood it

    The Fediverse is heavily far left-leaning. The far left is anti-Israel, and thus so are most Fediverse users.

      Being against apartheid is not a “far left” position.

      Anti-genocide and anti-apartheid (antifascist) is not “far left.” Those things are far right.

      I know it is, however I’m talking about communities that have no relation with politics, news, Israel or Palestine
