Yea that was on display at my onboarding in 2012. The 1940s segment skipped over the complicity towards their German partnership with the Nazis in the Holocaust so it was pretty lost on me.
SV is also quite collaborative in many killing actions over the world in modern times.
There is a difference of degree between running Treblinika and supporting the US military.
A piece of computer history everyone should know is that holocaust tattoos were IBM punch card codes.
For those that die at hands of missiles, drones, and three letter agency practices in no man's land, and their families, not really.
How fortunate are they whose families are still alive to mourn them.
Only when those SV customers fail at 100% hit rate.
My brother in Christ, you are talking to a forum populated by people so greedy that I expect they would sell their own mother into prostitution for a dollar. You are not going to get any Microsoft or Apple employees to feel self-conscious for selling hardware to the United States Air Force, so unless you've got some secret revelation besides "bombs bad" I suggest you stop taking potshots at people who literally cannot be paid to care.
So this is a greed forum?
Yeah, unlike many palestinians, cambodians, vietnamese, guatemalans, and so on.
Not sure whether I'd prefer to resist and die or resist and have my kids suffer from depleted uranium like in south Iraq.
> resist and have my kids suffer from depleted uranium like in south Iraq.
or like in Serbia and its neighbours.

Depleted uranium was not used in the NATO aerial bombing campaign in the former Yugoslavia, despite what coping Serbs claim.
Conventional high explosive munitions are damaging enough without making up bullshit.
