    Semantics. That’s what this seems to boil down to.

    And, no, they did not “stay out of a conflict” by capitulating (in advance even) to Zionists’ apartheid views of the world.

      I mean, this is literally the basis of the trolley problem, and the divergence of several major schools of moral thought.

        Umm. No. No offense, but that’s patently ridiculous.

        A corporation chose a distasteful policy to avoid the possibility of losing profits due to negative press. There are no lives at risk. The only risk is “brr! line must go up”

        To equate such morally detestable behavior to minimizing actual suffering and loss is bizarre and nonsensical at best. At worst, it’s nothing more than helping whitewash the vile and disgusting crimes of an apartheid warmongering regime.

        There is no nuance here. They capitulated to genocidal bigotry to maximize profits.
