It's not for "uncensored pro-Palestine activism", it's a primary vector for distributing blatant propaganda and misinformation. China is one of the big three who are aggressively pushing a pro-Hamas narrative on social media:

the NYT is a pro-Israel newspaper. See their recently leaked guidelines on covering Israel.

They can be pro or against Israel, but this article, which you likely didn't even read, is entirely factual.
Their news is biased, I do not trust the NYT on Israel as you seem to blindly do. This is like linking a Fox News article on trans people.
Show me a single sentence in this article that is wrong or misleading.
Fuck off asshole. Fuck your shitty NYT article.

the arabs did not want an israeli state, they fucked up i suppose.
And Facebook and Twitter aren't? 🙄
And nope, not taking the NYT's word on anything related to the ongoing genocide in Gaza before they retract their thoroughly baseless "Screams without voices" propaganda piece.
