People who engage in these antics would quickly find that there isn’t a single company where all the employees align with all their values. They would then either need to accept their hypocrisy or reject society completely to live in the forest somewhere.

Maybe we can start with not supporting companies that have cofounders that directly financially support ethnic cleansing.

Why set the bar at cofounders? Why not company donations, which are much more direct than a cofounder donating personal funds? Or why not CEOs? In terms of "support ethnic cleansing", indiscriminate ICE raids arresting people based on ethnicity sure sounds like a form of it. Why not include those too?

Oh right, because if we'd start with that, most people in this thread would have to stop using the device they're currently using, and that's inconvenient. Better put the goalposts exactly so that there's no such inconvneience!

That sounds like a good idea! I fail to see how it's related to this thread's topic, however.

I think that’s the point

Revealing that capital is catastrophically misallocated to people whose deep desires are to inflict suffering on others? Oh no, please don't do it, that would be terrible. We could almost figure out a solution to this capital problem. Maybe something involving a common ownership and a sense of class.

The one time HN is accelerationist in the right one. Be proud, comrade, you're making the world better even if you don't know it

It doesn't take much purity to not be a fascist.

Apparently that's asking too much of people these days, if the not at all suspicious flood of comments defending ethnic cleansing is any indication.

Considering their CEO is only supporting a party whose primary goal is mass deportation of undocumented and documented immigrants as well of legal citizens, it's going to be one of the easiest purity check of my life. A good fascist is a dead fascist.

You quite literally invented almost all of your comment just to create a strawman you could get mad at, then morally grandstand about.

No, this is what the term "remigration" explicitly means.
