I remember how juvenile justice, a show based on real crimes committed by juveniles… was cancelled because it exposed how rich parents enable their kids and how rigged the system is.
I hope #TeachYouALesson gets more seasons to expose the truth and piss off the perpetrators.
I watched Persepolis for the first time yesterday and in the scene where Marjane is in trouble with the morality police, they actually let her go after she begs them. So in my opinion it's not true that they're painted as blind enforcers without any interiority or conscience
Christian Smalls has been tortured in an Israeli dungeon and the only reason Jacobin is calling him out is because he tried to hold AOCIA accountable. Nasty work here.
I remember when everyone started turning on Malala lmaooo that shit was actually crazy. And it was coming from people who do literally nothing aside from type on twitter. Against Malala? That girl does more in a day than half of the reactionary left in a lifetime
Mustafa Murad Al-Dabbagh was a distinguished Palestinian writer, historian, and educator, born in 1897 in Jaffa, Palestine 🇵🇸
He is best remembered for his monumental work Biladuna Filastin (Our Country Palestine), a foundational and meticulously documented reference on the geography, history, and social fabric of Palestine, widely regarded as one of the most important encyclopedic works on the country.
Al-Dabbagh received his early education in Jaffa before completing his secondary studies in Beirut. In 1915, he served as a reserve officer in the Ottoman Army. After returning to Palestine in 1919, he devoted himself to education—working as a teacher and later principal in Hebron, and subsequently as a social sciences instructor at the Arab College of Jerusalem.
Over the course of his career, he held several senior educational roles across the Arab world, including Undersecretary of the Jordanian Ministry of Education in Amman and Director of Education in Qatar (1959–1961). His scholarship extended beyond Palestine to encompass wider Arab history and regional studies, cementing his legacy as one of the foremost Palestinian historians of the 20th century.
Among his most notable works are Our Country Palestine, Ancient History of the Arab Homeland (1951), A Brief History of Palestine (1960), and Qatar: Its Past and Present (1961). His writings remain valuable references for historians and researchers of Palestinian and Arab history.
Al-Dabbagh passed away in Beirut on September 7, 1989. In recognition of his cultural and intellectual contributions, he was posthumously awarded the Jerusalem Medal for Culture and Arts in 1990.
I've had some pretty stupid takes about gender and sexuality in the past and I'm extremely sorry about that, especially when I defended that shit before seeing how wrong it was. I was a huge idiot sometimes and since then I've been trying to learn more about whatever I talk about
