Working thru my massive backlog and figured I'd make quick little reviews for Twitter. Was thinking of streaming them, but I get really lazy and just end up streaming them to my buddies.
Growing up Muslim in America post 9/11, you learn which parts of your faith to keep quiet.
25 years of propaganda later, “turn inshallah to alhamdulillah” is a victory line on national TV.
Time for Muslims to stop keeping quiet. We have a lot more good to offer than two words.
It’s so funny that they always say “you liberals don’t know what you voted for. You have no idea what’s going to happen in this country now I’m so scared” And I’m just like
"My name is Abdulrahman Mohamed El-Sayed, and I am so proud and honored to stand here as your Senator-elect from the great state of Michigan. Up until right about now, you might have noticed I always say 'Inshallah' or 'God willing' whenever the outcome of this race was mentioned. But today, tonight, we can turn that 'Inshallah' into a 'Alhamdulillah!'"
Wait a minute - the performative ex Muslim Republican who ran on an anti Muslim campaign LOST to a Nobody because republicans thought he was a secret Muslim? He lost because of the Islamophobia he was promoting? This is a MOVIE
After decades of being told to fear Muslims, two Muslim politicians—Zohran Mamdani and Abdul El-Sayed—are now symbols of hope for millions of Americans. “The irony is almost too perfect to be true!”
