  Why would that matter? You think it’s alright to work for a company supplying the Palestinian genocide as long as you’re not working on that specific product line? British aerospace is pretty directly involved there so I’d set my standards a little higher personally.

    Okay, so we’ve moved from "Your products will end up in Israel" to "Your work will benefit a company that benefits from Israeli contracts"

      You could’ve just said “yes, I think that’s where the ethical line is”, instead of linking logical fallacies wikipedia like a fourteen year old atheist.

      We haven’t moved anywhere. We were at “working for companies profiting from genocide is wrong” and we’ve started right there.

        This you?

        If you’re working for a western arms manufacturer you can be pretty certain your products will end up in Israel too.

        Sorry that you can’t remember what you said a whole comment ago.

        We were at “working for companies profiting from genocide is wrong” and we’ve started right there.

        So what you mean is “If you’re working for a major Western company, period, you’re evil.” Since the list of Western companies that don’t do business with Israel is very small.
