Unit 8200 is a cyberwarfare and spy unit. They were responsible for the Lebanon pager supply chain terror attack. I definitely want to know if they are involved with any tech I'm using so I can avoid it.

She's very much right wing and an open and militant Zionist.

Roku isn't considered TV, it's internet streaming. Traditional television networks are very much only viewed by the elderly:

sporkxrocket··on How Israeli actions caused famine in Gaza, visualized
I would never be in Israel's position because I don't believe in genocide or land theft, thus would not have created this fake state in the first place.

If Israel had air superiority over Iran, Iran would not be able to bomb Tel Aviv at will.

They haven't "neutered" Iran, all they've proven is that they're actually quite ineffective against Iran and Yemen. They've also become the most hated country in all of the world. Their citizens have to hide their citizenship when they travel back to Europe. Israel won't last another 10 years.

So what would you say the Vercel CEO is putting first here since this is clearly causing massive brand damage.

Between them and a16z, this is Israel taking control of a channel they view as threatening as it gives Palestinians a voice.

China has been creating high quality cultural artifacts for thousands of years.
sporkxrocket··on Delete FROM users WHERE location = 'Iran';
The vast majority of the world including the ICC and the UN does not consider Israel to be defending itself. By your own logic, Israelis are culpable for the genocide and land theft committed by their government.

Israel is a much more threatening theocracy than Iran.
sporkxrocket··on Delete FROM users WHERE location = 'Iran';
The CNN article is just parroting IDF propaganda about the killings being “disputed” (by the murderers) with zero proof to back up that assertion.
sporkxrocket··on Delete FROM users WHERE location = 'Iran';
Incorrect, Israel killed an entire American family:

DHS nor the IDF are credible sources and neither have backed up their claims. That’s pure propaganda on their end.

sporkxrocket··on Delete FROM users WHERE location = 'Iran';
That’s very Islamaphobic.
sporkxrocket··on Delete FROM users WHERE location = 'Iran';
Israel literally killed 4 Americans two days ago.
sporkxrocket··on Qwen3-Omni: Native Omni AI model for text, image and video
Leaving China aside, it's arguably immoral that our leading AI models are closed and concentrated in the hands of billionaires with questionable ethical histories (at best).

Literally the first sentence:

> The Nakba (Arabic: النَّكْبَة, romanized: an-Nakba, lit. 'the catastrophe') is the Israeli ethnic cleansing[14] of Palestinian Arabs through their violent displacement and dispossession of land, property, and belongings, along with the destruction of their society and the suppression of their culture, identity, political rights, and national aspirations.

sporkxrocket··on Delete FROM users WHERE location = 'Iran';
Very easy to verify that what you're saying is false:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nakba

sporkxrocket··on Delete FROM users WHERE location = 'Iran';
This is ahistorical propaganda. Nakba was the ethnic cleansing of indigenous Palestinians in favor of invading Europeans. Israel was fully created through terrorism and war crimes, which continue at scale to this day.
sporkxrocket··on Delete FROM users WHERE location = 'Iran';
We should be sanctioning Israel, not giving them even more money.
sporkxrocket··on Delete FROM users WHERE location = 'Iran';
This is an ultra simplistic take. Iran does not like the role the US has in propping up Israel, entirely rational and understandable. Israel may not be recognized by our government as a "sworn enemy" but it's done infinitely more damage to the US and US citizens than Iran has. The only reason they're not sanctioned is because one of the ways Israel attacks the US is through bribery (AIPAC) and blackmail (Epstein).
sporkxrocket··on Top UN legal investigators conclude Israel is guilty of genocide in Gaza
Biden started the genocide, there would be nothing to take further if he hadn't done that. Biden also killed more people if you've been keeping track. I'm sure Trump is just as bad, but that's the point, they're both as bad as it can possibly get and both would kill Palestinians faster if they could. Not voting gives neither a mandate to do that though. It's one element that needs to be paired with direct action.

I know that Harris winning wouldn't have made any difference than Trump because she literally stated that she would not deviate from Biden's policy (which was as bad as Trump, if not worse).

The best thing you could have done on election day is not vote and encourage everyone you know to not vote. Our system is 100% corrupt and invalid, stop propping it up.

I will vote when there is an anti-Zionist running, until then I will abstain and encourage everyone to do the same. Very curious that going against Israel is beyond the pale for Democrats despite being a wildly popular position.

Except that's not what's happened. Biden and Trump are killing an equal number of Palestinians. Stop asking people to support your genocidal candidates and start demanding better from your party or be relegated to the dustbin of history.
sporkxrocket··on Top UN legal investigators conclude Israel is guilty of genocide in Gaza
Biden was killing Palestinians just as fast as Trump. Neither of which are my team.

They have a lot of reparations to make to their neighbors (and the entire planet).
sporkxrocket··on Top UN legal investigators conclude Israel is guilty of genocide in Gaza
My position is mainstream. Israel must be dissolved. Most people on this planet have no problem stating that. It’s not remotely controversial.
