Good! We need more of this!
excellent! they need to be treated like North Korea.
That's great, now donate to the hundreds of Palestinians who have gofundme's just to afford a fucking tent.
Is it still being sold in China? And Israel's allies? Or are these markets too big to performatively ignore?
What does China have to do with Israel?
Edit: ah ok we’re just whatabouting
Typical reddit/world user
It's not being sold for Xbox as a boycott of Microsoft, for what it's worth
But it's made for Windows and doesn't have a native Linux version...
Microsoft doesn't automatically get a slice of the money on windows as they do on Xbox.
Also: Microsoft doesn't even always get money when people use windows ;)
Don't let perfect be an enemy of good.
You can take a stand on something and not be perfect.
wake me up when chinese says god gave me France and we get to genocide them.
China says Tibet has always been a part of China and has been conducting a slow genocide there
Invading, occupying, and settling Han Chinese in Tibet is OK because it was done by an atheist nation?
Mao gave them Xinjiang and now the Chinese genocide the Uygurs, there is your half-assed analogy. If I really don’t want to make money in imperialist nations, I can’t stop at Israel, or China. What kind of moralism would that be?
