As a Jew, I wouldn't feel comfortable wearing a star of David or any external signal of it I wouldn't even feel comfortable disclosing being Jewish to anyone in the workplace without getting chased down by a rabid mob chanting "free Palestine" Nor am I obligated to qualify my own Jewishness by giving some opinion critical of the status quo If you have difficulty coexisting with minorities in the workplace, that's your problem. We aren't obligated to put up with your shit

You also seem to dance around the very question, "wouldn't feel comfortable" is very different from "intimidated and threatened". Here's what was asked: > Do you have references for the “intimidated and threatened” bit? Is there a claim it went beyond a peaceful protest? https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=40087425 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=40087425 Look at this photo and tell me seriously you feel "threatened" by people sitting on the floor to protest a previously-thought-of-as-good company being a military contractor now: https://media.beehiiv.com/cdn-cgi/image/fit=scale-down,format=auto,onerror=redirect,quality=80/uploads/asset/file/f3ce446c-0b8a-46c7-ae70-30e2d7b6b22d/IMG_2635.JPG?t=1713483101 https://media.beehiiv.com/cdn-cgi/image/fit=scale-down,forma... As a thought experiment, let's say they were protesting Google working for the French military. Or the US military. Or the South Korean military. Is the above a photo of an "intimidating and threatening" protest?

  Are the masks some lame attempt at hiding identities or is it some kind of virtue signal thing? Genuine question because I’ve probably seen 5 masks in the last 6 months and at least 2 of those were at a dentist office.

  You put "threatened" in quotation marks and aggressively insist on justification? You aren't entitled to one.
