A lot of people shout 'Free Palestine' before doing some vigilante violence (shooting in DC, firebombing I'm Boulder), so wouldn't that make security officials jumpy?
The whataboutism of Israel being more 'evil' doesn't mitigate the security threat.
- joxdosba 4mo agoI hear “free Palestine” shouted tens, or hundreds of times every day while walking outside on the street. Only time violence is involved is when drunk American or Israeli tourists get uppity, otherwise the protestors just stand there and make noise.
- throw4788547 4mo agoHow would you, or the protesters you hang out with daily, feel if someone shouted “Fuck Gaza”?
- joxdosba 4mo agoI wouldn’t care. I certainly wouldn’t feel threatened. Not sure about the protesters, I usually try to keep my distance to avoid hearing damage.
- godelski 4mo agoI don't know about the other user, but I hear both shouted. So... the same? Don't make this about party politics. The politics here is about if you're allowed to have a dumb SSID. IDGAF if that's "Fuck Gaza" or "Fuck Israel" or "Cheney shot a man then made him apologize" or "Obama is a Muslim". We're talking about restricting the names of SSIDs that aren't in the category of "I'm going to blow up this plane". Seriously, this whole conversation is fucking dumb because people are acting on partisan politics and not on what's actually happening. I need a fucking beer, or 10
