Weapons can be used for defense or offense. Just be sure that you can sleep at night with the potential consequences - and that your work may be used on the wrong side just as easily as the right side.
On the other hand, if you’re working for an Israeli defense company, you can be pretty certain where your results are going to go, and should maybe just… not.
You could’ve just said “yes, I think that’s where the ethical line is”, instead of linking logical fallacies wikipedia like a fourteen year old atheist.
We haven’t moved anywhere. We were at “working for companies profiting from genocide is wrong” and we’ve started right there.

This you?
If you’re working for a western arms manufacturer you can be pretty certain your products will end up in Israel too.

No, that’s not what I mean, and I’d appreciate you not putting words in my mouth.
So this isn’t you?

There is a material difference between providing Israel with military equipment and with some random consumer product that is just distributed everywhere. Sure, I’d argue it’s still wrong to do the latter, but it’s still a huge difference.
Ah, of course, if you’re enabling the genocide through non-military means, it’s okay. I mean, it’s not like supplying Israel with goods frees up more of Israel’s resources for military production and action.
