Evil, absolutely evil. Also, what heritage is that when everything they have is basically stolen from Palestine? They didn't even spare Hummos.

This is an insult to Black People, it's so obvious that ISISrael is the oppressor, not the other way around

As a scientist in the biotech world, majority of my LinkedIn sphere seems to support Israel under the guise of “Hamas killing and holding babies/children hostages” 

 

It’s interesting to see how my professional sphere differs from online discourse. 

In professional spheres, if you’re found to hold the opposite opinion, you will likely be fired and never hold a job again.

 

Extremely shitty comparison.

Amazing! Wonder if corporate media reported this and if they did, how much time did they give this coverage and what the framing was

I work in biotech/pharma and not some government affiliated job. You making this bold assumption really takes away from your cause and I'm not sure why you guys are incapable of understanding that people have different opinions and different information sources.

 

Believe it or not, most people who actually have professional linkedins are not getting their news information from Tiktok and instagram stories. Thus, most of their information is likely major news outlets via newspaper/online or actual TV. We know that leans more towards being biased towards Israel. If someone keeps seeing "Israel vs terrorist organization that kills and kidnaps innocent children" of course they'll automatically side with Israel. That was my point, that most of my professional sphere seems to be Pro-Israel because of the news which shows how the biased pro-Israel news still has major affects.

 

Not everything is a conspiracy theory. I have never heard or seen anyone in my field being fired for being pro-Palestinian. I've seen more pro-Israel online, but I also have seen Pro-palestinian and they still have jobs. What even.

Okay? People still get fired for being pro-Palestine from any employer, whether they’re government or private entities. Stockholders tend to be pro-Israel and will threaten to divest from any company that doesn’t purge dissenters from their ranks. 

 

Im sure your fellow professionals are legitimately pro-Israel from being propagandized by state media. I’m just telling you there are reasons why others might keep it to themselves. Even if it hasn’t happened, the mere threat of it happening leads to people staying silent due to healthcare being tied to employers in this country.

 

You want everything you’re told about what people do to protect Israel’s image to be untrue so badly  

[Cloröx]

Lol first they try to brainwash public with mainstream media but it doesn't work according to the plan. Now they start pandering on professional to give a false impression that "educated" groups are siding with ISISrael, and labelling those public as conspiracy theory believer.

 

Ooops the fast edit

This is interesting because I see a reasonable amount of both on my LinkedIn as a marketing professional who went to majority-minority school and lived in a ethnically diverse state. 

 

And the trends of which have nothing to do with industry or fields, but either largely correlated to whether someone is impacted by this or privilege, ie: the only non-Jewish person who I saw share a pro-Israel post was the CEO of my last job. 

 

I don't think many people actually view LinkedIn as an appropriate space to share such overtly political messaging and think you'll see most people use it for other means, but since you have suggested it is some great barometer of how people feel, I can then only assume your professional network has been purposefully curated to be homogenous in racially specific ways. My Arab American and Muslim former peers and co-workers and connections have shared support when they found appropriate. Do you simply not know anyone who is Muslim? Do you not have any Arab Americans in your professional network? I mean you're a ~political centrist~ from like....I think Texas (?)....so I lowkey wouldn't be particularly surprised?

I don't think it has to do with the professional field either. It only shows that those "professionals" in your sphere don't care about seeking information outside of what the pro-Israel news outlets feed them. Instagram, Twitter, and TikTok (hilariously) have been x10000 more informative because we're literally witnessing massacres and airstrikes live from Gaza. Obviously, fake news/misinformation can still spread easily, but you just have to pay attention to which accounts you follow and get your updates from.

Here in Germany a lot of elderly people around me are supporting Israel, but my class is unanimously pro Palestine. The minister of heritage comment was the final straw for a lot of people because we're in a heritage focused program. I don't want to be too optimistic, but Israel letting their mask slip and blatantly starting genocide after years of western media propaganda hiding their crimes may start a domino effect somehow. It may not even happen in the next 50 years, but I think this is the start of the end for them .

it's very sad to see how uneducated people are on this thread 

[TeemoR]

I see more and more a shift of the GP towards Team Palestine worldwide and I am so impressed by that. We need more people to support Palestine for sure against those Nazis, but even this wave of support was unexpected. I just hope we don't have any more casualties in Gaza at this point :( 

 

Joe Biden can rot btw.

you are welcome to discuss this with me privately if you're interested in hearing more than one side (as someone who is familiar with the history of this conflict) and you want to have a respectful discussion about it. I don't feel like being harassed by a bunch of woke people here.
