Waht grinds my gears of these social justice activist is their selective outrage. Why? These activist are against Isreal. Why are they using macbooks that have Intel processors which are outsourced and designed in Israel. Don't get me wrong I'm no fan of Israeli government myself, but Israeli people are very nice.
I don't want to go off topic here, but these activist should boycott alot of Companies like Apple, Starbucks, Nike and do forth for their practices that goes agaisnt black brown, Muslim and LGBT people. Example. IPhone are built in China and communist party in China has an anti LGBT stance and anti Islamic stance and activists supposed to defend LGBT and Muslim people. Nope. China gets a pass, and refocus that anger to Anglo nations instead.
Sad thing now is that both the right and certain degree the moderate left now equate anti zionism with anti semitism.
Other than that.the activist has a right to protest Israel. But the protest must be done peacefully and logically and with hate, likewise for employers not to take swift actions agaisnt individuals who partake in bds which violates individuals first amendment rights.

It's a little more nuanced than "against Israel "
As far as your comment about "selective outrage"... Is it possible that people can focus on one thing at a time? Or do all protests have to be about all things to be valid to you

Like , no one cares about this twitterer’s little protest. He amassed a whopping 18 likes. It’s sad but a lot of people are super triggered by small stuff these days. Watch out on the roads and in the office.

Doesn't Israel -- doesn't every nation -- fight with the best weapons & technology they can get, even if they must buy or steal it from their enemies?
Using "enemy technology" to fight the "enemy" doesn't make one a hypocrite.
In the 1800s, Native Americans tried to obtain rifles to fight the U.S. Calvary. Guerillas always sought to capture weapons from enemies with superior firepower.
