Bro dont organize nothing in your work place, its common sense. You want a vigil? Nice, go to a public place and do it, first you are trying to drag the company to your fight and maybe the company just dont want to take sides, second: what is your target audience? The people that you can talk to on the rest room of the company? Cmon…

I understand your sentiment, but you’re basically asking people to be only protest in places it’s easier to ignore

You know full well this wouldn’t have happened if this was any other vigil not for black or brown people. Specifically not Palestine as well.
But yeah, obey the masters. Make them more money. As they siphon your wage and downright steal from you. Hope it works out in the long run and doesn’t come to a singularity or some other dystopian reality. Not like we don’t already live in one.

Yep. The pro-Israel bias of those in power in the U.S. is absolutely disgusting. A vigil for other groups would have been no problem.
