Taking a picture with Hitler during WWII is a more apt comparison. The Vercel CEO is not ignorant of what Israel has been doing.

  • Even if he supports him, how does it help him to publicize it? If he's not ignorant about Netanyahu, what's the purpose here? Netanyahu is divisive even within Israel, I wouldn't post photo with him even before turning this into genocide.

    Ignorance somehow feels like the more plausible explanation.

    • I think there are two plausible explanations:

      1. He will be raising money/exiting to Israeli interests.

      2. He's a Zionist and this is what he believes in.

      Either way, he knew there was going to be major brand damage occurring. He already went through this once when he posted a picture in Israel.
