Woke students supporting Hamas blacklisted from Wall Street and double down on their statement. Is this a good or bad thing?

[SolitarySolace]

At least a dozen more CEOs endorse Bill Ackman's vow not to hire Harvard students who blamed Israel for Hamas terror attack - as undergrads double down on their statement and whine about being 'flooded with racist hate speech' - www.dailymail.co.uk/.../...rvard-Israel-Hamas.html

Woke Harvard students support for Hamas backfires, more CEOs vow to never hire woke students - https://youtu.be/GDABS0Bxzw0?si=-oQH_RgNmVAQkr1Z

Good thing

Bad thing

[DextroShade]

I agree with Tim on this: while I normally don't think that people should be punished for their political views in this manner, these are the same fucking people who will find a tweet from over 10 years ago and use it to ruin someone's life so they deserve to have it happen to them. Also I don't want terrorist supporters in positions of authority in government or the private sector.

[Avicenna]

Imagine the hostile work atmosphere these Marxists would create for Jewish colleagues and anyone else their ideology tells them to hate (imagine having your firm known for that an anti-Semitism). The clients they'd run off because they didn't fit into the correct identity groups. So yeah, I wouldn't want to hire them either.

[exitseven]

They did this for Trump supporters. It;s good to see the other side get their comeuppance.

[AngryCarl2]

Criticising Israel doesn't equate to supporting Hamas, and yes Israel should be accountable for their actions too. But what can you expect from Wall Street? They're not exactly what you can call... er... honest brokers, are they?

Also it seems like they are just exercising their right to free speech. First Amendment anyone?

[DarkWinterNights]

What does the Left always say? Freedom of Speech doesn’t mean Freedom from consequences? If someone supports an organization like Hamas, then I really want to know to be able to keep my family safe.

[Snakeyes7]

Yeah, they are supporting the very people who went directly after civilians. Regardless of what opression you went through, it is never an excuse to go after people who had nothing to do with it.

[KostasKouvalis]

I consider it a good thing that they were exposed and blacklisted.

[WhiteSandyBeach]

Me too.

[KostasKouvalis]

@WhiteSandyBeach Good girl 😊 What happened to your ass pic? I wouldn't mind being at that beach right now

[WhiteSandyBeach]

"White Sandy Beach" is a song.

Go on YouTube and search

Israel "IZ" Kamakawiwoʻole White Sandy Beach.

He had the most beautiful tenor voice ever.

[KostasKouvalis]

@WhiteSandyBeach Oh God! I'm familiar with him. He may be talented, but I hate his politics. He thought Hawaii is an independent nation. He didn't think it SHOULD be, he genuinely believed it was.

But his health. So sad he let himself get to that stage.

[WhiteSandyBeach]

I don't know about his politics.

[KostasKouvalis]

@WhiteSandyBeach He didn't believe that Hawaii is part of the US

[WhiteSandyBeach]

Compared to what's happening right now in the world, that's small potatoes.

[KostasKouvalis]

@WhiteSandyBeach Don't get me started

[NamerOfStars]

People being blacklisted because of their political opinions is NEVER a good thing. How could it be?

[WhiteSandyBeach]

And yet the woke demanded Trump be banned from Twitter.

[NamerOfStars]

@WhiteSandyBeach... and you think a bunch of bigots kicking a dolt off of a single social media platform for being the wrong kind of buffoon is in any way analogous to an entire industry refusing people employment for expressing a different political opinion?

[WhiteSandyBeach]

Who's the dolt?

[NamerOfStars]

@WhiteSandyBeach Trump.

[WhiteSandyBeach]

LMAO

Is Biden a dolt? LOL

[NamerOfStars]

@WhiteSandyBeach Lyrssoh. Biden's a traitor who ought to be rotting in prison for his multi-decade-long war on the Bill of Rights. That Trump is, by far, a better choice doesn't mean that he's actually GOOD, or that he's without his faults as a leader.

But by all means, continue decrying Biden for being "sleepy" or inarticulate while he cuts down Constitutionally protected freedoms like he's a slasher film villain.

[WhiteSandyBeach]

Biden is a dolt.

[DextroShade]

These people will happily get other people fired and blacklisted for a post that is old or put of context and think "hate speech" should be criminally punished, so fuck them they deserve it.

[DubiousIntentions]

@NamerOfStars It happens all the time on Facebook or other social media.

[strateguy632]

you ignored this differs from politics in this situation the palestinian are hammas terrorists so can't promote terrorism

[DubiousIntentions]

Trump has nothing to do with Hamas. Maybe Biden is supporting them.

[Exterminatore]

Bad thing. They are supporters of terrorists.

[SolitarySolace]

Agreed. Bad thing that they’re supporting terrorists. Good thing that these people are being blacklisted and will be unable to have jobs.

[Exterminatore]

Yes, it is good there are repercussions for doing such a thing for once. Hamas is not only Israel’s enemy. The day they did the first attack they also chanted “death to America.” They did kill American citizens in this attack also.

However I simply find it evil to support a terrorist group who slaughtered men, women, and children who are non combatants in their homes. What they did is barbaric.

[_no_one_]

I'd never hire nuisance tbf. I want workers not activists lol.

[Manab]

It's not the woke people. It's specifically Muslim student communities. They are doing the same all over the world not just Harvard.

[BigDog1989]

I mean why would anyone support hamas

[WhiteSandyBeach]

Because their teachers tell them to.
