    “Here you can see if the product in your hand supports killing children” is a strong line, but of course it will be banned - not due to Google being particularly pro-Israel or pro-massacre, but because this won’t go well with advertisers, regulators and literally anyone in power.

    Big Tech just can’t afford to allow such bold moves, and it’s not political (aside from Big Tech itself being cancer that needs to be eradicated, but that’s topic for another day)

        Mutual exclusion means either one is true or the other, but not both. But also what he said has no two specific concepts? What do you mean?

        Banning because of advertiser / regulator / government populism vs. It not being political?
