Like the hundreds of thousands of Palestinians ethnically cleansed from their homeland during Nakba (and now)?

I used to think this was the case as well, even though I suffered through the reality: computing was always a rich person's game. Even more so in the early days. Even a C64 was an upper middle class toy. Cosplaying counter cultural (really well) doesn't change the fact that if you cold afford to build the foundation of the computer industry, you were at least very aligned with capital. Now that alignment has been exposed, highlighted and scaled to global proportions.

“Win for America” is gross nationalism. Zero sum thinking with combative implications.

It was a bad bill but your gross nationalism is even worse. 1 step forward, 10 steps back.

I think tying nationalism to AI harms us all.

No I do not share values with the US government, which largely represents AIPAC’s interests and not my own.

No one wants to holiday in an apartheid state. The younger generations have access to actual footage on the ground in Palestine, they will never support Israel.

The US definitely violently expanded into Iraq. What Israel is doing is even more extreme.

Almost a million people are displaced in Gaza (violently) as we speak.

New comment by cornercasechase in "Growing number of apps help automate pro-Israel activism online"

cornercasechase — Mon, 29 Jan 2024 15:15:55 +0000

Palestinians have the moral high ground because it was their land that was invaded in 1948 and they been oppressed by Israel ever since. The “rapes” have been discredited over and over. One of the many things Israel does that is very obvious to outside observers is to lie constantly in the most obvious of fashions.

Israelis on TikTok and Israeli leadership make the best case against Zionism. They’re openly racist and genocidal. As someone who’s not religious it’s clear the Palestinians have the moral high ground by a long shot.

Opinion has continually shifted away from Israel since Oct 7th according to polls:

What’s not measured is how strongly people under the age of 45 feel about Israel. I know my social group went from abstract Palestinian support to extreme Palestinian support as they’ve been radicalized by Israel’s actions since Oct 7th.

Yep, pure Israeli propaganda. This is a textbook genocide. Israel is killing Palestinians at a faster pace than Hitler killed civilians during WWII.

Maybe it was the same people that bombed the rest of the city? The parent said Hamas made the claim, but it was doctors at the hospital.

Why would you question that this one particular building out of the thousands that Israel has and is bombing, wasn’t also bombed by Israel?

Aside, the doctors at the hospital said Israel bombed them, they are not Hamas.

New comment by cornercasechase in "Ask HN: Should I talk to VCs with conflicting investments?"

cornercasechase — Tue, 03 Oct 2023 13:41:07 +0000

No you should not. Sadly this is hard to do because many VCs will reach out to you and hide their conflicts, just to pump you for info for their portfolio company. This is very common practice.

They may also “launder” the spying through a friend who’s not directly invested (but is directly spying on you).
