Islamophobia is much more than “anti-Muslim hate”: it is a complex, multi layered sophisticated system of discrimination and oppression embedded in global power structures. It is a deeply intersectional system that overlaps sexism, racism, imperialism, classism, casteism and extends its reach to target non Muslim individuals and groups that share any perceived characteristics (Sikhs, South Asians, etc) it operates privately, interpersonally, dialectically, institutionally. it is normalized via cultural and political attitudes, language, practices, policies and laws. It is also not a recent phenomenon birthed from 9/11.
this piece in @VanityFair is disgusting, but rather than an exception is actually the norm
i wrote this article about the cynical ways in which politicians weaponized 9/11 for huffingtonpost 9 years ago. Still relevant. https://t.co/lsdqOw4OCt
Insane story. He was warned two weeks before the Oct 7th attacks by the Emiratis about an imminent attack by Hamas - and did nothing.
No wonder Netanyahu has always wanted to drag out this war and block any chance of a proper independent investigation into Oct 7th.
Misogynists spouting bile about Lindsay Clancy’s trial don’t care about the law. they don’t care about protecting children. they don’t care about justice or safety or whatever else they’re posturing about. They care about punishing women. They use someone like Lindsay Clancy as a weapon to further attack women as a class, to stigmatize post partum disorders and maternal struggles, and to make it more difficult for mothers, and for all women, to receive the support they need.
@BAStephenson60@genericrohan@CoopTory The cargo line in Antigonish still exists and sees extremely regular use. I attend there and often hear the train whistle at night. My buddy lived near the lines and complained about how they rocked the house.
@CoopTory Also, Antigonish needs have a stop in Nova Scotia between Truro and Sydney since its a university town and common rest point for people in or our of Cape Breton.
@CoopTory I think it would benefit your Pacific N. and S. lines if instead of both forking and the two hitting Ottawa and Toronto, T gets just the S. and O. just the N. and make Sudbury a point where people switch, or first take the ALTO to the other city to take the whole line.
Serious question to every mainstream news network and newspaper in this country: how can you justify crazy obsessive coverage of Hasan Piker and just totally ignore much worse stuff like this from an actual presidential adviser?
Le nom du lac Ontario tire son origine du mot wendat « Ontari’io », qui signifie « le lac est beau, le lac est grand ».
Ce nom remonte à plus de 400 ans, bien avant la Confédération canadienne et la Déclaration d’indépendance des États-Unis d’Amérique.
Nous savons que les États-Unis sont en train de changer. Leurs relations commerciales, leur politique étrangère, leurs monuments nationaux, leurs hydronymes.
Les Canadiennes et les Canadiens savent aussi qu’il faut appeler les choses par leur nom, et ce lac se nomme Lac Ontario – aujourd’hui et pour toujours.
@notjustbikes @AjEarlywine @hasanthehun He’s a huge fan of yours. He has definitely made his audience way more aware of how car centric design has hurt North America by reacting to videos like yours and from similar creators.
