They should've protested outside, not disturbing others.

#32> Several Google employees were arrested Tuesday evening at the company’s offices in New York City and Sunnyvale, Calif., after staging sit-ins to protest the tech giant’s work with the Israeli government The obvious question here is "how old were these employees?". The article doesn't even bring it up.

#33They said nimbus was for civilian use only, then time publishes an article saying they are dealing with the IDF directly and have a discount given that Nimbus exists… https://time.com/6966102/google-contract-israel-defense-mini...
It's pretty weak proof. It only says some part of it was billed to the ministry of defense. Who knows what it was used for? It could be their HR, billing, etc.

#34Land of the free. Indeed it is.
Freedom on full display. Employees free to break their employment contract. Employer free to fire them. Let me guess, you want power to control what people and companies can or can not do? I don’t trust you enough to put you in control of that.

#37They didn't just "protest" their company's work with Israel. They took over company offices, including the office of Google Cloud CEO in Sunnyvale, and refused to vacate them for 9+ hours.
Yes... That's what protest looks like.
And these are (were) employees and it’s quite likely Google already has established mechanisms for hearing employee grievances. Google’s not going to allow a small but vocal and disruptive group to override those existing mechanisms, nor would any serious business.

#39Earlier quoted context omitted.
These posters would prefer all protests be relegated to a closed studio TV channel you can simply avoid ever tuning into, and a state that punishes deviancy from that
I prefer if the protests are relegated to a TV channel I can simply avoid ever tuning into (like CNN or MSNBC). I am not sure what state you have in mind, but US does not punish deviance from anything.
How are these not a punishment for deviance from the desired positon?
Edit: punish, not publish.

doesn't matter how "in-depth" it is, it's still the daily wire and not trustworthy
