I had no idea Hans Zimmer was cool like that

Edit: spoke too soon, oof

one of his former employees, Lauren Bousfield, has alleged that he fired her for coming out as trans

it's not relevant to this post obviously but I think people should know about that

I mean people are totally fine with Norman Finkelstein even though he's a raging transphobe so most Hexbears probably won't care about this either, unfortunately.

I really dislike Finkelstein for this reason. Such a powerful advocate for his entire life against a genocide in Palestine as well as holding transphobic views? Just baffling.

People react irrationally at times to certain groups or things, and that’s just a weird quirk of being human. I hate AI for example, and I know it’s not 100% rational. I probably ascribe certain aspects to AI that may not be true.

Big difference between having not logical feelings towards technology versus human beings. I don't think those are comparable. Finkelstein's works on Palestine can be highly valued while saying that the man lacks understanding and empathy for aspects of people not related to their ethnicity/nation of birth.

Your feelings on AI might be wrong (though I don't know that it's so), but them being associated with non-humans changes the quality entirely

I did not know this about Finkelstein

Shit, nevermind then. Very not cool.

Oh no the musical hack has good opinions...

Edit: and he's a transphobe. Good thing I don't respect his work already.

I think the post in question is deleted now. It makes me wonder if it was made by someone managing his account.

This and Dave "I love jk Rowling" chapelle just goes to show that Israel has lost the soft power over the worst people you know.

The disconnect between Zionists and everyone else is an ocean apart.
