Recent reports have announced that Crunchyroll, the largest anime streaming service, will be replacing Aegisub with Israeli Software, OOONA, to produce subtitles more efficiently. Anime fans across the world are disappointed with this collaboration due to Israel’s ongoing genocide against Palestinians (via a report by the United Nations Commission of Inquiry).
Crunchyroll is also ignoring the needs of groups who require Closed Captions to understand the scenes better. They are isolating a large chunk of their audience in favor of AI-based subtitling, which defeats the point of a streaming service. Overall, this hasn’t been a great year for Crunchyroll, and this won’t be the end of it.
israeli companies cant exist without the approval of the israeli government, so by extension they are supporting them through taxes, and propaganda(good pr). its the same with the CCP, although its more extreme, chinese companies cant exist with the explicit approval of PROC government. Unless its a israeli company thats based in the EU with no ties to Israel, than thats different. theres a reason why canadians dont want to go places even like california, they know its supports trump through taxes.
they are tied to israeli govt as the gov is tied to them, you want to open a business in israel, you would need to get approval from said state.
If you do not want to support then stop consuming which can not do because everything needed or wanted is all controlled/produced by the same owner class and switching companies means switching between different companies all owned by the same owner class just like news and newspapers
Same scam that is done on elections to give the illusion of choice but the puppet master never changes face just the puppets
No other companies to switch to for baby formula, diapers, bottled or otherwise water, foods by any brand all same owner at the beginning of the chains, all media is all owned at the very top by the same owner class, movies including super hero ones all owned by that same entity, vehicles that move us and products around all owned by the same people even if the countries are different and the names changed at the very very top are the same owner class
