You Say You Want to Boycott Israeli Businesses? Okay, Start by Giving Up These Modern Amenities...
"People get very sensitive when discussing Israel. It is good to have some reasoned discussions that put things in perspective. I am sure it won't change anybody's mi if we can even just change the tone a little bit... I would find it very challenging to live in Israel right now. In addition to all the local tensions, the whole Arab world is undergoing a period of intense turmoil, and nobody knows what that might lead to.that"Social Media Sites: Accountability, Elections and a Voice to the People: The Case of BizSugar
"I feel a need to comment on this, if for no other reason because I voted for the original post on a day when I was quite distracted. I really am only commenting just to share my opinions (yes, plural). 1. These Hitler parodies are a dime-a-dozen, as Tristan mentioned in the previous discussion. I don't really pay them much attention, to be frank. 2. This video neither glorifies nor gives credence to Hitler, IMHO; it mocks him as well as bloggers who take themselves too seriously. 3. I totally understand why many people find this offensive, and even those who don't probably feel discomfort. 4. The connection to business is slight, making the submission even more tenuous; the problem is that many other posts have tenuous connection to business. 5. The moderators are in a no-win position here. This could have been disallowed, but what would be the official (objective) reason? Because of tastelessness? Then we would have to remove a lot of other tasteless items that some people think are not tasteless at all. Because of being off-topic? Then we would have to remove every other post on blogging and online promotion methods. Because it is silly rather than helpful? Perhaps, but there are a lot of silly posts that also would have to be removed. Because of all three reasons combined (tasteless, tenuous topic and not informational)? Perhaps that would be a valid reason, but this is not an easy decision to make and I do not envy the task the moderators have. 6. Yoni, please come back. I know this is an issue that you feel incredibly strongly about, and with good reason, but there are more reasons to stay than to go. That's all I wish to say."Subscribe
