    I mean yes, but also it's just a resolution. That is, a letter that congress is cosigning that has no legal result.

      I'm absolutely not trying to "roast" you or anything. You're not wrong.

      The reason I often type hyperbolically is because I've already seen enough of where this shit goes. Today it's a resolution, next week it's a law outlawing protesting Zionists.

      I'm failing to explain my mentality beyond like "what if Chicken Little was screaming about the sky falling... and was always right?" I basically use this website as my place to scream about the sky because everywhere else people have literally no clue wtf they're even going on about. That doesn't mean I'm always right, because I'm not and I try to accept new things when I'm wrong, but I mean they literally do not have the base level knowledge to discuss... anything. So, screaming into the void is what it will be, I suppose.

      (Chicken Little would be a good username)

        I mean, there are 30+ states with anti-BDS laws already. We are already almost at that point you're describing. For example, you can get fired as a company contracting with the Texas government or as an individual employee of the state (teachers, etc) for advocating for BDS.

        In some states, your landlord can kick you out of your house/apartment lease for advocating BDS.
