Most obvious bait ever

It's definitely bait but there is definitely not the same reaction to this among that group of people and when one asks the question "why?", there aren't a multitude if explanations that come to mind.

I guess that Iran felt like the strongest opponent to Israel, its history was not widely known by the protesters, and so it takes a little more to distance yourself.

There's maybe some disquiet in realizing that they're not someone you can side with, too.

And for sure some of the outlets followed by the protesters have ties to Iran, sadly.

Worked for him for a few years. He’s a good guy and new on the job at Match.


is he really though?


Yes, and if you want to claim otherwise you should bring some specifics.

>you should bring some specifics.

Palantir board member.

CEO of match.

maybe he's nice to his alsatian?


Depends on what you think about Palantir and Thiel.


Palantir, the incredible American technology company run by one of the most successful Black Americans? That's great.


Sam Hyde is running Palantir? Did not know that, wow!


jesus, how does he keep getting away with it?


The NASA personnel gambled and it costed 7 lives. Somehow, a powerpoint slide was what caused it? Lol.


Remind us what both protests are for.


How has Penrose gone off the deep end?


His theories about quantum consciousness...


Penrose published “The Emperor’s New Mind” some 16 years before YouTube existed as a website, so you may need to clarify which particular theories about quantum consciousness you’re referring to.


Liberal =/= leftist
