I'm more of an AMD guy anyway

I was actually confused because Intel builds cpus in Jerusalem

Another reason why they certainly don't need handouts from the US...

Well... wasn't the handouts so they started building in the US? I mean if it's for that it sounds good... But I am clueless.

If they think their intel failure is bad for business, wait ’till they get their fresh servings of Boycotts, Divestments, and Sanctions for the crimes against humanity that they’re committing right now.

In most US states boycotts of Israel are illegal. And forget sanctions or the biggest economy will retaliate. There's a reason Israeli officials are not afraid looking like nasty war criminals on TV: they have no reason to be.

This is a clear example of how the the US is complicit in what is happening right now. We helped set the stage for this.

And in almost all instances the courts have ruled that anti-BDS laws are unconstitutional under the first amendment.

Those laws are just grandstanding.

Man, I wish you would've said "all" not "almost all". It's clearly a violation of the first amendment and not even a good one. Hate speech laws against antisemitism I'd be fine with, but not this.

[–] GopherOwl@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

I agree, it's clearly a violation. But I don't think the 5th Circuit cares about the constitution. So rather than look up every single case, I just assumed some court made an insane ruling.

Oh, you mean you can't get to prison, you just can't get hired?
