The funny thing is that suddenly employees became trespassers without being fired.
pinewurst•2h ago
Most if not all were trespassers with fake ids. The rest seemed to be ex-employees with no more right to be there.

> employees became trespassers without being fired

Only one was an employee. Article didn’t say what he’s being charged with.

“…demonstrators returned Wednesday to again take over a portion of the plaza at Microsoft’s East Campus. They poured red paint on a company sign to symbolize blood, and blocked a bridge…

…

…the 20 people arrested in the Wednesday protest included one current employee, and three former employees…

…

Almost all of those arrested [Wednesday], including some carrying fake company ID cards…”

This is counterproductive. Acting like an idiot in public and disrupting peoples’ work doesn’t gain sympathy. (At best it gains awareness. But that isn’t the problem Palestinians face.)
