[sudo-discuss] Re: Apartheid-Free Communities pledge

A longtime sudoroom member who does not feel comfortable posting onto this thread asked me to post the following on their behalf. These are their words: *"Well well well, a fellow "hacker" and cofounder of a military startup pulls up to vilify an anti-genocide campaign. Surprise! * *Geffen's remarks reek of bad-faith arguments. * *It's interesting to me how the Israeli state conflates Israeli and Jewish identity through symbols, words, and iconography in the course of it's genocidal death-march "campaign" all the time. The Star of David painted inside buildings after a massacre, etc. I don't hear him complaining about that. Indeed, No one, other than Israeli state, seems to be given carte blanche to do this, even as a mistake, however benign. The impossible task of de-conflating this mess is left for everyone else (including peace-loving Jewish people) to sort out. * *Armed with a poor fluency in Arabic and backed by the asymmetric narrative power that Israel holds, he assigns malicious intent to a putative mistranslation in the movie subtitles of "No Other Land". Hmmm. Then claims to be unaware of the food delivery site (ambush). It's pretty easy to Google this, buddy. He is seemingly unaware that the entire rest of the world, absent the US, has voted multiple times for an immediate end to this genocide and the brutality. Hmmmm. * *These are Gish Gallop debate tactics 1.0. Pretty sad how effective they are on most people, however."*
