Always go for the simplest solution for a problem. If it's not good enough you have a new problem. Repeat to perfection.

Including below the entirety of the response we shared with @mikulaja since he chose to omit the first part. Privately to him and publicly we have explained what we mean by direct relationships and how we support banks and the companies they partner with. We’ve acknowledged how we can and will evolve, both in the language we use and in the way we serve the industry. I'm incredibly proud of the @unit_co_ team for the humility, positivity, and integrity they bring to our work each day. * * * From the beginning, all banks and their technology company clients using the Unit platform have had direct relationships. Banks and technology companies have always mutually decided whether to work together. Banks have always contracted directly with their partners. Banks have complete authority over all programs. They vet and approve partners, program structure, funds flows, attributes, and vendors for each third-party program before launch, and they must approve important post-launch actions, such as releasing partner marketing and changing program features or limits. To us, this is what direct means. But we recognize that this label may mean different things to different people. In the past we haven’t been as precise as we could have been about describing ourselves. We have taken steps to correct that in our public-facing materials. We have started using more consistent definitions that we describe here. unit.co/blog/deepening… We appreciate the opportunity to clarify the work we do with banks in support of our mission: expanding access to high-quality financial services.

@unit_co_ is changing. We've made several important decisions recently: 1. Designing for banks as key customers 🏦 2. Doubling down on direct relationships 🤝 3. Investing more in our bank oversight product 🖥 We have a view that hasn't changed from the beginning: to serve our mission in 20+ years, we need to make sure that our ecosystem operates responsibly and sustainably. What HAS changed is the regulatory attention to partnerships between banks and technology companies. We are taking note ✔ Our ecosystem serves 1,405,807 small businesses, independent workers, and consumers: freight businesses, restaurants, homeowners, property managers, retirees, and healthcare clinics and more. Being here in 20+ years for them - and many others - is a responsibility that we take seriously. I'm incredibly proud of our team and customers - both banks and technology companies - for the work that we continue to do for them.

I don’t know you @paulg . But i know of you. If your baby was in a tunnel, lonely, afraid, cold… you would not speak about war unfortunate casualties. You would just miss your kid. You would miss your kid so so much. I know you’re mega successful and i appreciate you for your success, but your non business decisions make me sad. I wish people with your influence helped navigate us all during these troubling times to make a positive impact on the world. And not drive more hate and support babies in tunnels, or supporting Hamas/Isis 😔 because this is binary, it’s either you say bring them back first and then .. or you’re on Hamas side You won’t see my tweet, I’m one of thousands who follow you, I’m Israeli in America, i don’t matter to you, but you matter to us. Pls consider changing. Toda. Adam

Pro Ceasefire advocates have been part of the problem, not the solution. Eliminating Hamas was possible back in 2014 if it wasn't for the ceasefire that kept Hamas in power. The region can't afford another future war in Gaza. Hamas must be removed from power to achieve long-lasting peace in the region. Defeating Hamas will end an era of Islamic violence. The defeat of Islamism for good. And those who have been under Hamas attack have the right to decide a ceasefire, not those who are sitting in comfort thousands of miles away.

A Small Yet Significant Step Forward #Un_Women The women's body is not a battlefield – this applies to all women! After nearly two months of intense advocacy, we've achieved a crucial milestone. UN Women has, for the first time, condemned the brutal attacks on Israeli women. This progress is due to our relentless fight for justice and recognition from international bodies. Huge thanks to everyone leading this effort, especially @DanielleOfek the founder of #MeTooUnlessUrAJew , @ruthhalperin, @CochavElkayam, @ZerMoran, @sherylsandberg , and many more. But we need more than words. Immediate action and transparency are crucial from UN Women and other agencies. Next goal? A fair and unbiased investigation by an international body without a history of bias against Israel. Justice for the women and children who have suffered is our top priority. We won't rest until it's achieved.
UN Women@UN_Women

We unequivocally condemn the brutal attacks by Hamas on Israel on 7 October. We are alarmed by the numerous accounts of gender-based atrocities and sexual violence during those attacks.

The history of the conflict in 5 tweets. The Jews said "yes" to every state they were ever offered. The Palestinians said "no" to every state they were offered because the Jews still would still have a state. The result is that Israel exists, and Palestine does not.

@jeremycorbyn As a Palestinian-Israeli I tell you: No ceasefire until Hamas is eliminated. It’s for a better future for both Israelis and Palestinians. When you ask for a ceasefire you’re asking to save Hamas. We want a good future for all our children. Don’t ruin it. #FreePalestineFromHamas

Viewer discretion advised: some of you may have seen clips and images of the horrific war crimes committed by Hamas on October 7th. A new website archives all of this footage. We know it’s difficult to watch, but it is even more heart wrenching for the victims and the families of these heinous crimes. Please RT this and help us make sure that the world knows what happened. hamas-massacre.net

It’s not anti-Semitic to criticize the Israeli government. It’s not anti-Semitic to put the current conflict in historical context. It’s not anti-Semitic to mourn the death of Palestinian civilians. But if you describe the slaughter of 1,400 civilians as “military action” or call for a ceasefire without mentioning the toddlers who are still in the clutches of a terrorist organization, people will rightly wonder why you don’t seem to give a single shit about the lives of innocent Jews.

Bill Ackman@BillAckman·
I am pro-Palestinian. Some might be surprised by this due to my recent advocacy on @X for Israel, but you shouldn’t be. I am anti-terrorist, not anti-Palestinian. It is not inconsistent to be pro-Israel and pro-Palestinian. And my pro-Palestinian viewpoint is not a new one. My pro-Palestinian perspective began more than 30 years ago when I was introduced to the Palestinian community and their plight in the early 1990s. I have invested millions in helping promote Palestinian economic development and peaceful coexistence. We would do a lot more if we could be confident that the funds would be used productively. The crisis in Gaza is largely due to a failure of leadership. The Palestinians elected Hamas in 2006 after Israel withdrew and evicted 9,000 of its own citizens from their Gazan homes. Israel withdrew from Gaza for peace. It was a small scale test of a two-state solution. Rather than building the Singapore of the Middle East over the last 18 years, Hamas diverted funding to build tunnels, rockets and munitions to wage terror and war in an effort to eliminate Israel and kill Jews. Like the Israelis, the vast majority of Palestinians want peace. They want opportunities for employment so they can earn a living wage to support and educate their families so the next generation can build a better life. They want peace, beauty, happiness, health and prosperity as we all do. All of that would have been possible with Gazan leadership which focused on economic development rather than terrorism. Israel and (most of) the world wanted the Gazan experiment to succeed. Israel simply wanted peace. Israel built a fence and created checkpoints to protect its citizens from suicide bombers and other forms of terror. The Egyptians built a concrete wall at their border with Gaza for the same reasons. The need for a fence and checkpoints is made self-evident by the catastrophic impact on Israel when the fence was breached on Oct. 7th. Hamas is in the business of terrorism. Hamas makes money with grift, corruption, and funding from Israel’s enemies who support Hamas to achieve their own anti-Israel objectives. Hamas and those that support it don’t care about the Palestinians. The Palestinians are simply a tool to implement their anti-Israel and/or anti-Jew objectives. Like other businesses, Hamas has a corporate hierarchy where those at the top make thousands of times more than the ‘workers’ at the bottom. Hamas’ leaders have put aside hundreds of millions and even billions for themselves. Hamas uses their ‘culture’ of terrorism, cash, and other incentives to motivate young, brainwashed —often from youth—, radicalised militants to implement death, torture and destruction. Their ‘success’ at terrorism attracts more funding, amplifies Israel’s response, and the cycle continues. Hamas does not care about the Palestinian people. Hamas knew with certainty how Israel would respond to the torture, rape, beheading, and slaughter of Israeli women, children, seniors and infants on Oct. 7th. Hamas’ plan was to hide out in their tunnels and headquarters built under major hospitals, limit evacuations so that Palestinian citizens are exposed to the inevitable Israeli military response, and then rally the world against Israel in a globally coordinated response as innocent civilians die. Israel has no choice but to destroy Hamas. It cannot allow its survival, as Hamas’ existence remains an existential threat. If ISIS invaded our southern border, we would do the same. We would warn civilians to evacuate and then we would go in and destroy the terrorists. We wouldn’t cease fire until they were obliterated. The whole situation is an incredible tragedy. While I have always hoped for a viable and peaceful two-state solution, the Gaza experiment has been an abject failure. Future efforts for statehood for the Palestinians must learn from this catastrophe. As always, I welcome your input, critiques and rebuttal. What did I get wrong?
