On Nov. 10, the Indigo store at the intersection of Bay and Bloor streets was splashed with red paint and plastered with posters featuring the company’s chief executive officer and founder, Heather Reisman.

I love how the article doesn’t say what they were protesting… 🤪

Or that were no-knock, over night raids by police.

Huh? They talk about the no knock entry… and how it’s SOP for these sort of things. It says ‘pro Palestinians’ in the url in the title…

Doesn’t really seem like this article isn’t being transparent about this. All of the facts are there, they’re just not saying ‘bigots attack Canadian business because of issues overseas’ I’m assuming cuz that might upset some people.

A bookstore was vandalized.
The CEO of the bookstore created the HESEG Foundation.
The HESEG Foundation financially supports those who immigrate to Israel to enlist in the IDF.
The IDF is killing innocent civilians.

Mischief isn’t an award? Huh

Why vandalize a fucking bookstore? Sure they’re a big company but there’s plenty of more evil corps out there. Who cares if the CEO gives money to Israelis, vandalizing the store does nothing for that

They are giving money specifically to people who move to Israel to join the military, not just to Israelis in general.

If the money was being donated to a hospital, orphanage, or homeless shelter, no one would be protesting.
