In the recent Lemmy developer update, there's a reference to one Lemmy developer, SleeplessOne1917.

I found some horrifying comments from this user.

https://lemmygrad.ml/comment/2649200 - "There is no such thing as an Israeli civilian. All settlers are valid targets."

https://lemmygrad.ml/comment/2649472 - "15 year olds are military age. That makes them valid targets for killing."

https://lemmygrad.ml/comment/2649732 - "... There is no such thing as a zionoid civilian. Everything that moves and isn’t Palestinian is a valid target. ..."

Edit: New comment from the user "Cry more. Israelis need to be eliminated. Death to Israel, and death to Amerikkka!"

Friendly reminder that it’s very easy to sympathize with the plight of the Palestinians without glorifying terrorists.

For a similar example, I support the cause of a United Ireland but that doesn’t mean I support the IRA. Be better than that.

This is why all the silicon valley startups end up having an HR and PR department: not because they want to, but they need to prevent and to prepare for eventual fuckups by employees, starting with their founders.

It's one thing the founder of a small startup says $InsensitiveCommentary on social media and shrugs off because they're small and unnoticed; it all changes once they start earning millions and people follow what they said.
