“The deal is a ceasefire, and it will not be a one-way ceasefire, meaning that if Iran is not able to control Hezbollah, and if they attack Israeli positions or Israeli towns, Israel will have the right to defend themselves and respond,” the officials said.

So the peace deal is basically a cease fire agreement than Israel is extremely likely to break at its earlier convenience. Perhaps at the end of the G7 conference?

On the topic of the zoomer getting doxxed by the Palantir founder for saying in an email that he doesn't want to work with Jews, I think Future Moldovan Citizen said it best.

I think an underlying problem in a lot of these kinds of incidents, whether it's getting cancelled for public outbursts or nuisance streamers, is that the debate always gets fixated on the consequence; people determining whether or not it's appropriate for a Jew to use his power to make his life difficult for public displays of antisemitism or a black guy assaulting someone calling him the n word in public. And while that's obviously a more fruitful debate, I feel too often people are autistically detached from what normal people find sympathetic and what is considered appropriate etiquette in public. Too many people lack self-preservation instincts and then expect sympathy. Obviously it's hard to draw a line of where sympathy should end and begin. I think a teenager saying something edgy and having a big public account blast them is cause for scorn because of age and online following. But like FMC says, if your first reaction to a job offer is to say "I don't want to work for Jews", it's hard for me to not look at that and think "wow, you are completely incapable of putting your foot in your mouth" and it being reframed as "look at da Joos doxxing people who name (((them)))" by online wignats blinded by their hatred of Jews is fucking stupid.
I have turned down a few jobs before. Some for people i didn't like. At no point did i go "I'm doing this because of reasons that are going to piss you off and make you come after me". Least you can do is go "i don't think this is going to work out" and drop it. They can't do anything at that point. I feel a little bad for him, but nigga, you ran in front of that bus.
 
So youre saying the media would collude with fellow ceos to ruin your life? Very doubtful especially in the current climate Indians see themselves in.
You would definitely be put on a blacklist if not exposed. It's pretty clear you have no idea what professionalism is.

This is the same position that's been in place since 2024. Browns like you ignore Hezbollah attacking Israel and call the Israeli response that's permitted in the ceasefire a violation of the ceasefire.

  1. Not brown. Defaulting to calling people who post a quote from a White House official doesn't help your cause.
  2. I wasn't really criticizing Israel in any way, you assumed that.
  3. Israel might be permitted to defend itself from Hazbollah but if history is any indication Israel will either over-step its rights and claim its necessary for their defense and/or Hezbollah will cry foul at the first shot and claim Israel is over-stepping its rights of self defense.
  4. I'm just trying to gauge how this inevitability will affect the deal with Iran. Thats all. Lots of us in this thread are doing the same thing.
Man, having your foreskin chopped off makes people real edgy.

Being put on a blacklist would be reasonable and understandable. Teaming up with fellow ceos to put you private info on blast like youre a teenage girl isnt. If you think professionalism entails going to social media to bitch and cry over someone calling you a jewish (when you make it your mission to stand out and be as jewish as possible) youre a retard and clearly dont belong in any work place.

Even Indians know better than to pull this shit.
 
He literally signed up to a Jewish company then went lol fuck you Jews then when the original post obscured his identity, he self doxed for no reason before anyone on the Jewish side could do anything but talk tough.
The reaction by the CEO and others has been fair and reasonable, you're right. Austin Franco did this to himself and whatever comes of it is him reaping what he has sown.

Einhorn posted it unredacted then was quick to add a sloppy edit which does not remove the edit history. I just copied these myself from his own post.

Industry people giving a heads up to their peers "This guy's a clown, we offered him good money and he called us a bunch of kikes" vs rabidly and publicly defending your people's izzat only to damage it further because a dumbass kid can't help himself from being a dumbass kid.
 
destroy a random 19 year old's life for lawful speech
Of course Austin has right to free speech. So does Dave.

If saying "I don't want to work for a Jew" counts as free speech, "this guy named Austin [redacted] told me he didn't want to work for a Jew" is free speech too. You can't say whatever your heart desires then cry if someone screenshots your message, redacts your name and shares it on Twitter. If this happens, best course of action is keeping your mouth shut, not self doxxing yourself like a retard.

Oh well. I guess you can do that do. Have fun, I guess.

> Puts in a job application to Jewish ran company
> gets a couple callbacks
> tells jews to fuck themselves
> jews decide no, fuck you
> wonders why jews are so unreasonable
This is a mischaracterization of what happened.

I hope neither of you lament the whole "high trust society" thing. Austin's primary mistake was being too honest and thinking that would be that. Instead, that trust was betrayed and a CEO has tried to ruin his entire life for saying his preference of not wanting to work for a jewish boss. Remove "jew" from the equation and if you can't see how absurd that is then you're pretty far gone.

Even if that was the sequence of events (it isn't) that's still not a reasonable response to what happened.

100%. You can blacklist him but leaking his verified personal info when your company model is about securing verified personal info is the opposite of what normal people would do.
 
If you want to watch something worthwhile I recommend Sarah Paine presentations.

I disagree with her on a decent amount of things but she has very persuasive arguments for the American Empire and institutions, and does it without sperging about Trump. Institutional rot for example I do not think she pays enough attention to. Yes it's good to have institutions, but if they get corrupted and start turning inwards on their own population in a negative way then they need to be fixed, whether via destruction or reformation.

The title of this one is about Putin/Xi, but is more about how Continental and Maritime powers behave very differently. I might do a more detailed write up on it later.

Her point on exponential growth is very good. Just having a few, or even one % higher GDP per year compared to other countries compounding over decades leads to massive differences in industrial, military and technological capabilities.

Here's some examples I found in this article which is really good.

1% difference over ~2116 years = difference between world superpower and poor shithole (Bolivia).
only 0.25% difference over ~2116 years = difference between world superpower and first world EU country (Spain), being at 56% of our GDP per captia.

Shorter 50 year graph.
Italy only being below us by 1% GDP spread over 50 years = only 60% of our GDP per capita.

It's good to keep this type of thing in mind with Iran, China, Russia, etc. It isn't just about how you're doing but about how others are doing relative to you. If these countries are below us by just 1% of GDP for the next 50 years they'd be cut nearly in half relative to us.
Its a retarded fucking argument that's been the cornerstone of American policy since the 1965 Hart–Celler Act. Literally every single white majority country (95%>) in the world was prosperous as long as it didn't have a communist government. Every other government, even proto-communist scandi socialism, was better than the open borders line go up model. BTW, Russia also has an open borders policy, so I'll leave it up to someone to explain how a large, resource rich country with a rapidly declining white population with a below replacement fertility rate is in a slow decline. And I don't care about chink problems or successes. That's the best part of being an American, two big oceans and hemispheric domination means we are a world unto ourselves.

If you are able to get a degree, you are old enough to know you don't always say everything you think without at least rephrasing it to avoid offending people, especially in a business setting, which job hunting is.

You can say whatever you want in a high-trust society, but you also have to accept saying something that is likely to piss someone off is going to have ramifications.

It is the same as saying you'd never work for a Seahawks fan, or someone from Utah, and being shocked when Seahawks fans or inbred Mormons spread that around.

Can we comprise and say, yes the kid was a retard but this is vastly excessive retarded response?
The thing is, it is a normal response, it is just more public and transparent than usual.
