Microsoft fires Joe Lopez for disrupting Genocide-profiteer Satya Nadella during Microsoft Build Keynote speech and bans words like “Palestine”, “Gaza” and “Genocide” in all company emails!!! Yet another chapter in a long tale of Microsoft’s intimidation, retaliation, repression, and censorship culture. Source.
Sigh. The “source” is an Instagram post with the same graphic.
I would love, you know, an actual article. I’m all for independent journalists, and a snappy image is a fine way to draw people in, but that needs to lead to the article. End point at a few words of text saved as a jpeg don’t do it for me.
What do you mean? You don’t see SM posts from random people and just accept as gospel?
You consider The No Azure for Apartheid (NOAA) group a random people?
They’re certainly random to me.
So link to the Verge article, not a photo on Instagram.
See, useful source. Also notice how it isn’t a random social media post.
I saw this on another post earlier: https://www.theverge.com/tech/672312/microsoft-block-palestine-gaza-email
They are basing their article on this Instagram source, with the rest of the article is just them yapping and asking Microsoft for a comment.
I mean, the Instagram source is the primary source; it’s a post by NOAA speaking out against these things, and The Verge and other outlets are writing their articles based on that primary source.
