Should CEOs speak about the protests?

They addressed the BLM protests. They addressed the Jan 6 event. Now they all keep silent about the protests happening now.

They should have kept their mouths shut about the other ones too

Airbnb yoyomono OP May 2

I agree. It was none of their business but they chose not to keep silent. Now they keep silent. What a double standard.

It was all performative. I wish they would just keep their performative activism to themselves, and express opinions in a personal capacity.

Why? What value does it bring for them to talk about these protests?

NVIDIA Aaron.B. May 2

The value is they wouldn't appear to be hypocritical about their values (you know, human rights, fairness, etc.) But we all know they only really care about money in the end. It isn't until the BDS movement picks up more steam that this will change, as it had for South Africa. History repeats itself and all signs point to it repeating on this point. Do you think CEOs spoke about the civil rights protests before or about Vietnam? They only speak after the fact when the society has mostly come to terms with it.

NVIDIA Aaron.B. May 2

Only care about money in their public role as CEO. In private, who knows what they think. Hopefully they're educated enough to know the reality.

They should just continue to fire the protesters

This round of protests is more illegal than the other round of protests. You’re not allowed to criticize Israel.

Jihadis invading campuses to bring their violent antisemitism are literally trespassing. Campuses are for students.

They spoke out about October 7, but stay silent about genocide. They should stay silent on both occasions, but it’s very telling that they stay quiet only to avoid angering their Zionist masters.

Lying about genocide is disgusting. Shame on you. "Zionist masters" - you are an antisemitic garbage Screenshotted

The world is learning the truth, and the student protests are just the beginning. Soon the truth will become clear for everyone to see. Crying Antisemitism is all you can do because you’re desperate and know that logic is not on your side, despite peace loving Jews such as JVP and others being a major part of these protests. The only liar here is YOU. Anti-zionism is not anti-semitism. Screenshot all you want, you’re the one who’s on the wrong side of history.
