Stanford students are criticizing Google for enabling Israel. If Google was providing support for Hamas they could protest that too.

I've never seen any protest by students that protested against Palestine.

In fact, at University of Washington, a protest was organized to support Palestine after the Oct 7 massacre on Oct 8; they chose to show support Palestine after Palestine did a massacre. And there was a very little criticism on that kind of actions.

is oct 7th actually comparable to what israel has done to Palestinians over time?

sure it was reprehensible, but is it on the same scale even? both before and after?

criticising hamas seems like premature optimization, and picking something basically irrelevant to the overall conflict

> I've never seen any protest by students that protested against Palestine.

you should think long and hard why that is but answer is as always quite simple

[ergocoder]

We all know why, and the reason doesn't fit what you want to believe. That's why you pretend to be obscure about it. Otherwise, you would have just said so out loud already.

[neaden]

It's because the US government doesn't fund hamas and US companies don't work with Hamas.

[ergocoder]

The protest isn't about Hamas/Palestine. It's about criticizing what Israel is doing.

[neaden]

I was answering why you don't see people protesting Hamas, which is what you brought up. If you didn't want to discuss that, then you shouldn't have brought it up.

[xenospn]

They could. But they would never.

[x3n0ph3n3]

We both know they wouldn't, though.
