#IF IT WAS MUSLIM LMFAO

[itssideria]

when this barbarity one day ends—and it will. it will—i don't want to hear one fucking word about antisemitism within the arab community. i don't want to hear one word about the human rights those countries lack. i don't want to hear it. i don't want to fucking hear it.

wherever islam or christianity arrive, indigenous culture dies

we literally need to start shaming people for ignorance again

[ardentpoop]

w/out fail every time i see an anti US military post on the dash there are ppl in the notes going "the people who voluntarily enlisted are victims too"

dont fucking do that lmao. you are saying this on posts made by people from countries that the US has targeted for years while intentionally and systematically dehumanizing everyone living in those countries to make them easier targets. it's ridiculously distasteful and ignorant!!!!

like for most muslims and/or arabs in the US (for example!) even just briefly existing in the same space as someone wearing military fatigues is uncomfortable. the most obvious indication you can get that this is someone who does not see you as equal to them because they bought into the narrative that shipping off to Your Part Of The World to murder people like you is Justified.

and i must say that though my professor is deeply crazy, i respect that he has not backed down in the face of one of my old teammates hounding him about palestine lmfao since all of my professors will AT MOST give “condolences” about the “situation in the middle east,” as if that means anything to anyone

[eye-in-hand]

some of you have only ever been around one religion and it shows lmfao

[sakhafa]

I wish religious ppl critically thought ab religion lmao

That Channel 4 news report that Ukrainian refugees are struggling to integrate in the UK cos there are too many black and brown people has me on the floor 😭😭 you literally fled actual war, your country has been destroyed like how are you finding the time and emotional capacity to be racist on top of everything else

I keep thinking about the girl who made a comment about elisa always wearing a crucifix bracelet.

I hope she know it's a van cleef one 😭😭

there are certain levels of ignorance im able to put up with on the dash esp from fellow americans whom I really don’t expect a lot from in terms of their political views. like ok person I follow I can grit my teeth thru your regular v*teblueisms if your tone isn’t too malicious or mocking of subjects that you yourself don’t understand. however I draw the line at you immediately taking any excuse to totally disengage from these issues because they make you uncomfortable, and spreading misinformation to all your followers in the process.

serious question for non-native english speakers who have any sort of religious beliefs (or people who have a language they speak for liturgical reasons and not in their day to day life, ie praying in arabic or hebrew)

when you say "god" in colloquial english, does it feel like you're saying a word that actually means your deity that you actually believe in or pray to in whatever degree?

personally: nope, unless i'm specifically trying to talk about mine, in which case I usually use the hebrew term i'm used to (hashem, translates to "the name") or "g-d" (written as such for religious purposes) but "god" as used in english to me is sort of just like "the christian god" and it's off to the side. de-religion'd and de-importance'd for me. hence the question, because it makes me curious

happy thanksgiving to all who are celebrating!! i hope you get to spend time with people you love today & find joy in even the smallest things to be thankful for. one of those things for me has been coming back to this community after such a hard time in my life and finding (& re-finding in some cases) such lovely people with not just beautiful writing & characterization, but such warm & kindhearted energy. i really feel welcome here & i’m having a lot of fun with both of my muses (even though giorno just got here lol, shhh) 🤧 i hope to write with all of you even more & to get to know you, too! 🤎🦃
