The accusation that I am antisemitic is appalling and fundamentally dishonest. Criticizing the actions of the Israeli prime minister, a military technology contract, or the executives who supply it is not the same as criticizing Jewish people. This critical and necessary dialogue is then dishonestly framed as being anti-Israel. To be clear, my views come from my own political convictions and should never be interpreted as hostility toward Jewish people, for whom I have deep love and respect. Everything I know about acting, activism, and humanism has been profoundly shaped by the Jewish friends, colleagues, and loved ones who have been integral and family throughout every point of my life.
This merger has real consequences for real people, and for the entire country. Scrutinizing the Ellisons, including Oracle’s business built on data, surveillance technology and government contracts, and the serious threat to editorial freedom and the loss of a livelihood for thousands of families, is fair and necessary. The $111 billion deal would hand one family control over CNN, HBO and Warner Bros., backed in part by foreign money whose influence on editorial decisions has never been fully explained to the public.
Lawmakers on both sides of the aisle have called for serious national security review, and regulators still haven’t given the public a real answer. Until they do, the merger shouldn’t move forward. Now is the time to dive boldly into all these issues, not step back or concede.
I'm so in love with this quote;
"With time, you will come to know the wisdom of Allah in everything that has happened to you. You will come to realise that He has been more merciful to you than your own self."
They’re saying the ones that choose to wear it are brainwashed and misogynistic 😭😭 Reducing every hijabi to a victim of false consciousness is just another way of denying women the ability to think for themselves
no one talks about the guilt you feel when you're so depressed but have a great life on the outside- receiving an education, having a place to live, access to food/water, having family, friends but you still for some reason do not want to live
oh no i feel bad. think im gonna isolate myself and ghost the few ppl who reach out to me and decompose in my bed and neglect my health and sleep my life away and mindlessly consume media so i dont have the capacity to think and feel. this will Surely make me feel better
feeling very bad don’t know what exactly is wrong could be the multiple disorders or the childhood trauma or the bad weather or the nutritional deficiencies or the lack of sleep or my hormones or the curses or my father or the loud noises or
