Microsoft fires Joe Lopez for disrupting Genocide-profiteer Satya Nadella during Microsoft Build Keynote speech and bans words like “Palestine”, “Gaza” and “Genocide” in all company emails!!! Yet another chapter in a long tale of Microsoft’s intimidation, retaliation, repression, and censorship culture.

          Depends on if you are paid to shill for them. Otherwise you’re a chump doing it for free!

            I merely pointed to the fact that a single instagram is a pretty shitty source of information. I stand by that reason.

            Whatever got verified after the fact doesn’t invalidate wanting better information before falling for ragebait 🙂

              You outright called it bullshit and got pissed when people were rightfully calling you out for ignoring mainstream news channels covering it.

              “got verified after the fact” maybe you shouldn’t jump the gun and equate unverified info as “ragebait”.

              Edit: You also seem to not understand that this came out of an established source of info that is usually accurate.

                  I don’t see anything wrong with Microsoft silencing Palestinian protesters after what they did in some public and some private events at the company.

                  This is your comment in reply to this “News” that you said was fake.

                    And now you’re just making shit up 😄 you should probably read through things properly before assigning your own thoughts. Funnily enough, you didn’t fact check, which was my point to begin with.

            Defending what? You’re the one with a single source of nonsense. Get a better source and I might believe whatever this post is trying to project.

                There is no source. That is the whole point. You believe some random account on Instagram. Forgive me for asking for better information.

            With all due respect, no company in the world has to pick sides. They can choose a side or do nothing. If you don’t like what they are doing, you can boycott them.

            I don’t see anything wrong with Microsoft silencing Palestinian protesters after what they did in some public and some private events at the company.

                I won’t. I can distinguish between my private time vs the company time.

                  A thief also distinguishes private time and company time. Doesn’t absolve them of wrongdoings because they work so hard.

                  I’ll rephrase: I hope reality will never knock at your door to prove you were wrong.

                  Let me know if you still can’t grasp the concept.

                    It won’t… Again, I can distinguish between company time and private time.

                    Employment is an exchange of time from employee for resources from employer.

                    Microsoft is not saying you can’t support Palestine. You can.

                    That being said, Palestinian employees interrupted public and private Microsoft events. That caused monetary damage to Microsoft. Microsoft is saying that is no longer welcome during the company time using company resources. That is 100% within their right.

            Says the one who believes single sources on the internet, as long as they fit their belief.

            You’re closer to being qanon than you think.
