One could argue it's already working too effectively.

Quintupled???

That's a 7x increase in fact checked information.

Integrity intensifies.

Yep. It's more difficult to criticize Israel in several social media settings, while there are more stories in all forms of media about the dangers of Muslims in all parts of society and around the globe. Moreover, news of Israel's war crimes is only found in a few rare places. For example, there is a helpful subreddit: /r/IsraelCrimes that has important videos of war crimes. Even in places where those war crimes are shown, such as in /r/CombatFootage or /r/EndlessWars one is downvoted for noting that a video the IDF shared about a bombing in Lebanon is - I remind them - a view of a war crime of invading another country and killing its civilians. One odd development: for the first time in 19 years I've received my first Reddit admin "warning against your account" for the comment that there are videos showing Israelis' comments that non-Jewish people are like animals. This was in a response to a video noting that Israelis refer to Palestians as lesser humans. My argument is that it's worse than that, in some cases, in some other videos. There were '2' views of my comment when it was deleted and I was given a warning. My reference to what I saw supposedly broke Reddit rule #1: promoting the hatred of other people. It's so easy to use that rule to warn or ban users, and it would seem that there is a pro-Israel/pro-genocide Reddit admin tracking comments (or flagged comments) in /r/IsraelCrimes.
