Supporting Israel is a great way to get organizations like the ADL off your back when you're being antisemitic. Look at Elon Musk - he was having trouble and being sued because of all the Nazis he encouraged on Twitter, but he took a P

Because the job market is worse and employers have forced down engineers' bargaining power. And it's a virtuous cycle for them: the more overtime an employee works, the fewer employees they need to hire. On a societal level, this
