SHAPES OF TOLERANCE

good morning, ٱلسَّلَامُ عَلَيْكُمْ, કેમ છો?

Can you believe it is nearly the end of June and I have finally managed to draft a second post?

By the way, it seems as if EURO 2024 has just started, but let me tell you, it will finish in a blink of an eye.

Staying on the subject, it is not difficult to notice that socio-cultural layer of the tournament tend to evoke as many emotions as game results; let’s take the ‘No to Racism’ campaign as a starting point. Online and offline discussions about race and, more recently, gender discrimination in sport may, to some, be of equal or higher importance than the idea of the championship itself.

I believe that tolerance is one of the core values learned (or not) in the childhood and teen years, which plays a significant role in moulding personal point of view on various social and cultural aspects of the past, present and future. 

Tolerance, similarly to pacifism, has many facets and can present some limits, which are more likely to be set by authority, on a public and private level. 

French Marxist philosopher, Louis Althusser¹, defined such institutions as repressive and ideological state apparatuses, which hold a substantial control over maintaining a refined ideology, reproduced through mass media. 

‘Ideology represents the imaginary relationship of individuals to their real conditions of existence’

Every year on the third Monday in January, which falls on January 16 this year, Martin Luther King Jr. Day is observed. King was a significant figure in the civil rights movement, and he is most known for his efforts to promote racial equality and eradicate racial segregation in the US. Cada año, el tercer lunes de enero, que cae el 16 de enero de este año, se celebra el Día de Martin Luther King Jr. King fue una figura importante en el movimiento de derechos civiles y es más conocido por sus esfuerzos para promover la igualdad racial y erradicar la segregación racial en los E.U.#1936coffee #stopkillingblackpeople #philandocastile #blacklivematter #ripfloyd #racialequality #notoracism #theshowmustbepaused #ihaveadream #silenceisviolence #march #nojusticenopeace #civilrights #sayhername #racisminamerica #changeiscoming #martinlutherkingquotes #justiceforahmaud #icantbreathe #saynotoracism #wpw #blacktuesday #policereform (at Washington D.C.) https://www.instagram.com/p/CnfRxc3uAzS/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Migrasyon: Sulit o Hindi?

Maraming Pilipino ang pinipiling mangibang-bansa dahil sabi nila ito ay “para sa ikabubuti”. Ngunit hindi nila alam na hindi ito kasingdali ng tila.

Katulad ng isang 33-anyos na Filipino OFW worker na nagngangalang Miguel, humingi ako muna ng pahintulot sa kanya kung maibabahagi niya ang kanyang mga karanasan bilang Overseas Filipino Worker. Una niyang binanggit na iba ang pakikitungo sa kanya dahil sa kulay ng kanyang balat at accent.

Tinanggap siya sa mga trabahong may magandang suweldo ngunit hindi niya nagawang gawin ang gusto niyang trabaho bilang head chef. Siya ay itinalaga bilang isang dyanitor, sa kabila ng kanyang culinary background sa Korea at Pilipinas.

Tinanong ko siya kung may pagpipilian siyang bumalik sa Pilipinas dahil sa diskriminasyon sa lahi sa USA. He replied with “siguro hindi na, kasi mas malaki ang kita dito kaysa sa Pinas” (maybe not anymore, because the income here is higher than in the Philippines). Nabanggit din niya na mas maganda ang health benefits dito at makakatulong sa kanyang pamilya kung sakali.

This is bullshit, Louise forgets that when Alex decides to leave their romance she will be a complete stranger to everyone, maybe the day she doesn't have Alex's money, she will be more humanitarian.

Hey, not to change the subject or anything but I met alex and louise back when we had gotten all the recents, I never got a photo. Just a signature. I didn't want to bother them with a photo + I didn't look the best that day but I asked alex if I could hug him as I was telling him how much he's saved me when he leaned into hug me louise says something along the lines of "actually he can't, we're really busy right now." I remained respectful to her and waited awkwardly for alex to finish signing my purse but louise really rubbed me the wrong way, like the way she said it didn't seem like she was in a hurry, or being genuine. Like it was nasty, like she was disgusted by me. Once alex gave my pen back they were on there way. I could hear louise giggling and Alex's "enough" But when he said it, it wasn't playful. Like he genuinely seemed frustrated. Alex had seemed to be in a good mood before, he was smiling and genuinely looked happy when I went up to him. I'm just confused and I've held off of telling anyone besides those close to me because I sadly was a louise supporter, but I've felt weird about it ever since. I can't seem to forget about it. when asking my friends about it we came to the conclusion that it was either race based (I'm African american), me being another woman, or that I wasn't dressed the best (I was in a rough state, I struggle with HORRIBLE depression and I could barely pull myself out the door that morning to get groceries) anyways. Just looking for thoughts, last time I told someone in the fandom I was attacked by her followers :/

Interesting. I'm not surprised, she's too arrogant and insecure.
