I just looked at that post and wow... that is disgusting... Feddit should be ashamed of themselves. That segment at the end reeks of childish and immature behavior complaining about "tattle-tales" because they got defederated after someone spoke out against them. That on its own reinforces my idea that this community was both a good idea and is needed to replace europe on feddit.org or any other German or DACH instance.

Yes you are certainly right that the problems mostly stem from German Law itself being very pro-zionist and trying to selectively squash anti-Zionist sentiment (including their acceptance of the IHRA definition of antisemitism which is in and of itself Zionist apologia). German law is way too restrictive, and I would argue that this hinders a Lemmy instance's ability to function properly and not just be functionally a propaganda mill due to German compelled speech laws.

Speaking on that group you asked about, they're in the modlog of yepowertrippinbastards but it includes a handful of Feddit.org users and a few users on other platforms who were spouting outright genocide denial, whataboutism, and sometimes even using homophobia to try and justify genocide or mock pro-Palestine activists (you know, exactly what right-wing dipshits do).
