Do people even understand that the entire Middle East was home to a diverse array of cultures and religions before Islam colonized it?

“what is going on???” girl the majority of young men are literally the fucking hitler youth

It really can’t be emphasized enough just how much marinating in niche online grievance politics for over a decade has completely melted a lot of people’s brains

If "international law" means a dictator can torture and kill people by the thousands but no one can do anything about it, then fuck international law.

Iranian here! I want to thank American leftists for educating me these past few days & correcting my understanding of Iran & radical Islam I almost trusted my own experience, my parents’ trauma, and what my family in Iran endures daily instead of your wisdom. What would I

there’s so much innocence in children and the world has done them so wrong sobbing

unfollowing people once they start being super religious is so real cause I don’t have time for that

You don't have to love her politics, but Hillary has been the smartest person in the room for most of her life and most of you are just too dumb to see it. She spoke at her own college graduation as the first student speaker in Wellesley's history— she's always been that b*tch.

It really reeks of orientalism the way the American left acts like Iranians are just expected to suffer and die for the purpose of "resisting empire" while those same leftists live in the belly of the beast and do nothing tangible to disrupt the government they benefit from.

We don't talk enough about how a lot of these anti-LGBTQ governments and policies in Africa are funded by American Evangelicals

Game of Thrones was more interesting when it had politics and dialogue than when it started to rely solely on dragons and battles.

Pro tip: You can absolutely be racist in leftist circles, you just have to call them diaspora.

Workshops4Gaza I suppose so, considering "anti-imperialism above all else" is incoherent claptrap and frequently relies on a kind of warped circular logic where we go to bat for the very things we were hoping to prevent by being anti-imperialist in the first place.
