MODERATORS
 

Microsoft’s Redmond headquarters has become the point of intense employee protests, fueled by reports that the company's Azure cloud platform and artificial intelligence (AI) technologies are being used by the ‘Israeli’ military for mass surveillance and AI-driven targeting of Palestinians in Gaza and the West Bank.

The protests, led by a group called "No Azure for Apartheid," began with a Tuesday encampment of approximately 50 people who established what they called a "Martyred Palestinian Children's Plaza".

Someone else said it and I'm stealing it: these people are brave AF. They're going to be struggling to find work for the rest of their lives.

At least they will live knowing that they did the right thing in the eyes of evil. I doubt they will remain without work tho, MSFT in their CV will still weight a lot, and as the world is becoming more and more antizio, they will eventually find a good place among non assholes and nazi collaborators.

antizio

i never heard this and i'm stealing it now. lol

antizionism is having a moment right now because the ruling class accidentally left a gap open with tiktok and the rest of social media; they's since then plugged that gap by forcing tiktok to sell and forcing reddit/facebook/etc. to hire idf moderation so i suspect that our antizionism moment is going to pass.
