Sam Altman called on the tech sector to have more “empathy” for Muslim, Arab, “and especially palestinian” colleagues amid the ongoing war in Gaza.
What if they want to show support for ordinary Palestinians, not Hamas? Do they have your blessing in that case, kind soul?
Showing support for civilians is totally fine and not likely to lead to any retaliation. For the workers to believe retaliation is possible makes me think that they want to express support for terrorism.
Oh. So you "think" they want to express support for terrorism. Is that because they belong to a particular religion? Be as open as you wish. You won't face any retaliation from me. 🤗🤗
I feel like if this article was written with no mention of Arabs, Muslins or Palestinians employees, but just mentioned employees in general fearing being retaliated, Sugarfree's comment would still stand nonetheless. And I kind of agree that if they fear expressing their opinions it's because their opinions are too extreme and they know it. I mean, the "from the river to the sea" kind of opinion.
Fucking what? The article is explicitly about Arab and Muslim employees
It's disgusting how fucking comfortable you islamophobic racists feel all of a sudden. I bet you think you're so much better than the anti-semites too. Two sides of the same coin
Y'all trying to gaslight us like the response to any kind of sympathy for Palestinians hasn't been completely over the top.
Are you kidding? There has already been so much retaliation.
People are losing their jobs for supporting Palestinians and not the genocide committers in Israel.
I may create a second account so I can downvote you again. What a circular, evil sentiment. The fact they’re worried suggests to you that they support terrorism. Fuck you.
I am glad the upvote downvote ratio here is accurate to some degree. I do add notes to these accounts with label so it help ignore what they write on other posts..
You jumped to that conclusion awfully fast, and you're certainly not alone in that. That's precisely why people fear retaliation.
