Not for Americans. Explicitly for American companies that were contracted by the government that, while under government contract, decided to change their opinion on whether or not they would participate in the divestment effort. American companies that will probably have it written into their contract not to engage in the divestment campaign.

This was a gigantic nothing burger. It's not even censorship.

You know that's a lie. Moreover, a nothing burger contributes nothing, because it's a nothing. No one really benefits or looses from a nothing burger. It's mostly just a distraction to virtue signal. Nothing happened here, either pro or anti Israel.

The small government, libertarian, anti-idpol guy is rear-guarding the government persecuting people for not supporting a Jewish ethnostate...again.

Yeah was a huge red pill for me when I noticed "libertarians" doing more of this than actually defending individual liberties. And why Ron Paul got sidelined after his support for defunding Israeli foreign aid.

Literally no rear-guard action. The law is stupid and the debate on it doesn't matter. You're just wasting your time on nothing. If you pass it, nothing changes. If you don't pass it, nothing also changes. You are expending political capital for nothing, about nothing.

Not like any of that matters, you'd set my children on fire for not supporting whatever ethno-state you would choose to back. You don't believe in anti-censorship, just winning. Which is why I'm telling you you're not winning or losing, you're just doing nothing on this specific issue.

Giz, it ain't a nothing burger for Americans of any kind not going to jail for opposing any fuckin foreign state for any reason.

Explicitly for American companies

Yes, that was the foot in he door that all Americans got fucked...

No Americans are going to go to jail for any reason related to this. That's what I'm saying. Why would a federal contractor, who probably became a federal contractor because they weren't in opposition to Israel, who also will be required in most of their contracts to continue fulfilling their contracts without regard to Israel (or even have it explicitly noted that they can't be in opposition to Israel in order to get the contract), suddenly turn around and break their contract with the feds explicitly stating that it was done for following the UN Human Rights council's guidance?

There is no reason to do that. It's not going to happen.

What the anti-Israel crowd always pretends this means is that I can't refuse to buy bagels from Israel or I'll go to federal prison. That's never the case.

Hello, it's me, the refutation of your premise.

Margarine, you were not personally arrested by the feds for boycotting Israel.

And to be clear, I'm not talking about employees, I'm talking about the companies that are federal contractors. If you decided to stop doing your job at your company, while already having been tasked with federal work, the issue wouldn't be whether or not you violated the law. The issue would be how quickly you would be fired for choosing not to do your job.
