Reuters reports that around 100 people made it into the construction site, with some scaling a crane to place a “fuck AI” banner. Protesters also unfurled a “Microsoft powers genocide” banner on the construction site, and chanted “Microsoft has got to go” and “free Palestine.”

Of course. Normal people can also correctly identify genocide.

    Well you know when an entire group of people on being killed because of who they are. Yeah that's genocide. It's actually really easy to identify it has a very particular look.

    Yeah, I've noticed, at least in here. That doesn't mean they're right in everything they say. It just means that Hamas won the PR war.

    Hating Israel is not antisemitic in itself, but still the history of antisemitic hatred is interesting: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Timeline_of_antisemitism

    Netanjahu fucking off and perhaps rotting in prison (if it could happen) would not be a bad thing though and I would fully support that.
