Don’t talk to me about local hijab customs when Israel is banning baby formula, ok?

If I want to give the benefit of the doubt, I'd assume it was removed because it might not have fit with the circle's purpose — I assume the TakeAction circle is more meant for events/direct action. Although it does say in the circle's sidebar “or discussion related to taking action (strategy, tactics, history, etc.)”, so I don't know. Did the mods not give a reason for removal? If the reason was indeed that it was considered "off topic" then o/Women might accept it. If not, whelp. Even then, I would not expect good faith engagement. I think that Vexxed was initially started with a decent chunk of Ovarit's Israel-supporting "power users" migrating over, and they are well established at this point. I see that the only comment before the post was deleted was "is this a joke?" and the post acquired a score of -2.
I might not vibe with everything stated in the post (ie. what I view as dismissal of Hamas' violence/terrorism on Oct 7th in one section), but I still think it is overall a thought-out high-effort post to educate and engage about the Global North/South divide and how imperialism/colonialism manipulates feminist causes to further themselves.
