I'd say collateral damage. Blame the guy who makes war.


This makes no sense. Just imagine you would get handcuffed tomorrow. Collateral damage. Blame some guy. Or a gal.


This is the price of living in a country that starts wars of aggression.


Man, if only it were so easy to leave a country that starts wars. It's not as if the average citizen has little control over that or anything.



The price is that of a VPN subscription



I'd be glad it's just handcuffs and not a bomb dropping on my head.


/shrug. Try being from the UK, we don't even get imgur.


Well, that's not the same, that's well-deserved.


Because other people do bad things these people aren't allowed to share ideas.


Trump? Biden? Obama? Bush? Clinton? Who do you mean?


No no, you see, American war brings peace and Russian war brings despair.


Does it even matter with such a logic?


Probably Vladimir Putin and his cronies.


You do realize that your country has has been fighting a very aggressive war, often intentionally targeting civilian targets like hospitals, high-rise residential areas and the power grid, and that because of that your country has been sanctioned by a large part of the world... Right?


Does Israel has access to this website ? Does the USA ?


Are you stupid, or just pretending?

Qualcomm is the USA, how do you imagine Qualcomm blocking access from the USA?

Leaving aside the fact, that Israel is USA's ally, Palestine-Israel is quite different from Ukraine-russia.

In his pre-SVO speech putin promised to solve "Ukrainian question" once and for all. It's not even a nazi vibe, it's straight nazi ideology. russians burn Ukrainian books, destroy Ukrainian museums. All on purpose... Israel, OTOH, has >20% Arabic population, all free to speak their language, to celebrate their culture and even to practice their religion.

We can discuss and condemn many terrible things Israel does, but it's not even in the same ballpark with russia... comrade.


If pointing double standards is making me stupid, so be it.

Russia is doing and saying awful things : yup. "straight nazi ideology" apply also to Israel, which is doing and saying the same things Russia does, and more.

I don't need the extra hasbara of the famous "arabic" (sic) population living in harmony. The apartheid is documented, as is the violent colonisation and genocide.


Yes, my country is in war against a nationalist regime. Not the first time. But this time the west is on the side of Nazis, that's new and sad.


Please don't engage in political battle on HN. As moderators we make an effort to protect people in all countries from being attacked for the actions of their government, no matter which country they're in. We think it's important for HN to be a place where people can be respected as an individual and not treated as an avatar for national stereotypes or the actions of their government. With that in mind, please don't initiate these kinds of battles here. We wouldn't tolerate others initiating this kind of thing against you, and we equally can't allow you to initiate it against others.


I tried to get it on archive.is but it say in a loop forever.


Even when it's not blocked, the layout is broken...


Cancer is you and your country


Please don't perpetuate political battle or make personal attacks on people on HN, no matter how right you are or feel you are. The topic of this thread is "Same-day upstream Linux support for Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 mobile platform". Let's keep comments on that topic, and definitely not pollute it with personal attacks on individuals over the actions of their government. In case there's any perception that I'm "taking sides", I've replied to the commenter who initiated this subthread too, but it's not OK to reply to a bad comment with another bad one.
