All humans have a will to live, Hamas is fighting against occupation not to commit suicide. The Israeli theocracy however seems to have lost control of all logic and instead is operating in the death throws of an apartheid state coming to its end. The world would be safer with more opposition to Israel.

MAD is a well established doctrine for deterrence. The people running Iran are running Iran, not the world. The people running Israel however have undue influence on my and many other countries.

I'm far more concerned about Israel's nuclear capacity. If anything, Iran will help keep them in check if it can develop its own nuclear deterrence.

The US supports Israel and itself causes terror in the Middle East. US citizens are safest if we withdraw completely and sanction Israel, like we would any other country violating human rights.

It simple actually, Iran has no impact on my life where Israel has a very negative impact on my life. I barely want to remain in the tech industry because all of the VCs are pro-genocide. My tax dollars, military and political capital all go to cover Israel. I do not think Israel should have ever been created. It does not benefit me, only harms and endangers.

Nothing, Israel is trying to broaden the war and drag the US and western countries further into it.

I don't think he's expecting anything, just protesting and drawing awareness. It worked too because we're now talking about it.

It doesn't make sense because the biggest advantage to WFH is that people can live in a lower cost of living city (and companies can hire the best talent globally). Forcing people into the office even once a month means you're tied to the real estate market next to the office.

> it’s been known remote workers don’t perform as well for as long as I’ve been in the industry.

It most certainly is not "known". I've managed remote teams, I've managed in-office teams and I've managed the same people in both scenarios. At no time was the office advantageous to innovation. Quite the opposite, it's a soul suck and once you free people to work how they are comfortable, their creativity will skyrocket.

His ideology and distrust is propagated down the managerial ranks. It's an entire culture built on distrust and exploitation.

> our hypothesis is that it is still easier to build trust in person

Nothing builds trust like callously laying off tens of thousands of people over multiple rounds of layoffs! Want a trustworthy environment? Earn it. Really though when he says "build trust" what he means is that he (Zuck) does not trust his employees unless he can see them.
