Honestly, if you’re going to start boycotting the major technology companies because of Israel, your next phone is going to be this.

Apple, Google, Microsoft, LG, TSMC, Intel, Qualcomm, etc. They’re all pretty invested in the nation. And for the few companies like Samsung that pulled out, they’re still selling products that are made from Google, TSMC, and Qualcomm stuff. So you’re really only one step removed from companies that are invested in Israel.

Man I can't even avoid evil by moving into the woods and subsisting on acorns because the land the woods are on was all stolen through colonialism and I am definitely not descended from the original inhabitants.

But… Israel is pro-gay while in Palestinia you’re getting un-alived for being gay…

Palestine is done for. After that terrorist attack there’s a 0% chance of Israel backing down until it’s totally gone for good.

Surprised people haven’t figured that out yet, Hamas handed Israel exactly what they needed politically to finish things for good.

I don’t live there and have zero connections to the region or either side, but that’s how I read it.
