I think Mumsnet should apologise for the censorship of people's opinions about the genocide in Gaza? (Closing threads in AIBU about Israeli crimes against humanity)

Keep them out of AIBU, stick them in the board set up for it, so nobody can see you lot asking for videos of dead babies and they might stay up

Not related to this specific topic, but in terms of more careful monitoring, I think they need to look at some posts on both side of the trans/women’s rights debate. There have been some horrifically hateful posts from both sides, though I have to say, it seems more so on the women’s rights side. It has meant that some of those debates have become so toxic you are put off from trying to make any meaningful, reasonable contribution.

Agreed. I’m amazed by what they let stand. It’s disgusting

I hope it's because they want to avoid certain posters seeing it as an opportunity to voice their appalling antisemitic views.

Is there not a Gaza board? Topics that people tend to bang on about a lot get there own boards usually.

So why did the Ukraine AIBU threads not get deleted?

Not sure which threads you are referring to, but I'm pretty sure that MN would be deleting them not in order to censor a particular set of opinions, but because of rule breaking and the sheer nastiness of turning atrocities and war into self-righteous obsessive endless functionless chat-fodder.
