Shaun Maguire is once again being called out for blatant Islamophobia. He has been at this for nearly two years. Let's take a look.

Thread 🧵👇 The site genocide.vc called him out in 2023! genocide.vc/meet-shaun-mag…

The Wiz acquisition is the largest transfer of Israeli intelligence operatives into Big Tech in history. Let me explain the details here. Israel's "Unit 8200" is Israel's major intelligence unit. That is, spies. The Israeli NSA. They do their mandatory time in Unit 8200, then they go into tech, working in Big Tech, starting startups, and working in VC.

A new video game is being made to tell the story of the Nakba. Dreams on a Pillow is made by Palestinian developer @RasheedAbueideh, who previously made Liyla and the Shadows of War.

🧵 of the crowdfunding campaign and more details on the game @RasheedAbueideh First, the campaign. They're raising $194,800 to build the game (that's 1948 x $100).

Meta employees publish an open letter to management (see below) to show how meta has promoted the genocide. This is how the suppression happens

🧵 First, the letter itself

I just published about Meta and Lavender - specifically how Whatsapp is used to enable bombing of WhatsApp users blog.paulbiggar.com/meta-and-laven…

Lavender should be viewed as a systematization of genocide. It creates the system by which mass murder is enabled and accomplished, and is the Auschwitz of this war. Nazi's could just have killed their victims where they stood, but the system -- the trains, the camps, the gas chambers -- was necessary to keep their population complacent to the genocide

To put the intercept article in broader context:
- Israel pushed lies about sexual violence
- NYT editors demanded an article to supprt it
- NYT got a first time "reporter" to "investigate"
- they found nothing. zero. nada
- they published it anyway
- Israel murders 30,000 people theintercept.com/2024/02/28/new…

I wrote about the genocide in Palestine, and how tech has been silent and complicit.

blog.paulbiggar.com/i-cant-sleep/ In it, I call out my investors who are whitewashing the genocide and promoting Israeli talking points while Israel bombs and murders innocent civilians.

I want to draw attention to another founder, @ekadamer, who was also kicked out of @ycombinator, but this time for calling out YC's misogyny. Thread ⬇️ Here's the post where Katia called it out linkedin.com/posts/katia-da…

lol just got kicked out of @ycombinator for this tweet

Some thoughts on the GitHub/MS acquisition, as founder of @circleci, one of the GitHub’s biggest partners.

(PS am no longer at @circleci, and speaking in personal capacity) GitHub was and is the dominant everything in devtools. Hard to fathom how much devs use github, probably more than all other devtool products combined, really more than anything except their editor/IDE/terminal

Time to talk more about Dark (darklang.com), and making coding 100x easier. Our aim with Dark is to make it 100x easier to code, for existing developers. (Side quest: making it 100x easier to code will _also_ make it easier for way more people to learn to code).

I’m being asked a lot why I haven’t named the VC firm whose party it was. Well, a bunch of reasons. (thread) 1) Most importantly, this isn’t my story to tell. This is Jane Doe’s story, and she tells it in the book (they name the firm in the book). I’m here to support Jane Doe’s telling, and lend an non-anonymous name to support her narrative.
