No, most of the people on this planet do not support Israel or think it has a right to exist. It takes a special kind of propagandizing to think that. Once the boomers are gone, so will be all support for Zionism. Here's a recent poll:

Also, your HN bio says “Please don't use Hacker News for political or ideological battle. It tramples curiosity.”, and yet here you are defending Zionism.

Guy who leads with, “Israel is an illegitimate state” is policing political comments now?

It's your quote. I have no problem with people speaking politics on HN. There's already an extremely overt political bias in the capital class that funds our industry, so we should have very open discussions about it. It's one of the most relevant topics in tech.

lol if you work in "our" industry you are by definition part of the elite in this country and the world, and yes, you have an overt political bias, you just don't seem to realize that it's a bias.

I never signed up to support genocide; it doesn't matter how much money I make, I do not.

> you have an overt political bias

I never said I didn't. I'm an anti-Zionist.
