American commentator Candace Owens:
“To all the Muslims who grew up during 9/11 in America, I am sorry on behalf of America for the way you were treated.”
Normalize being a boring Muslim. Go to bed after Isha. Wake before Fajr. Sit with Qur'an to understand. Take dhikr walks. Your life doesn't have to be loud to have barakah. Sometimes the magic is in being unreachable. In becoming the Muslim nobody can disturb.
"I laughed over the Ycee 'Olodo Uprising' topic, not because I found it funny, but because he was identifying something in his time. However, he was seeing the latter stage of something that started in my own generation when I was probably his age.
I spoke about weaponized ignorance for the first time in 1994 when I wrote a piece on it. He is identifying the same phenomenon. The 'Olodo Uprising' was fathered by weaponized ignorance."

I never converted to Islam but doing research had a similar effect on me too. Islamophobia stems from MI6/CIA deliberately distorted, hateful and radicalized versions of Islam.
You see how almost everyone's criticism is directed to the offender and not Christianity as a religion, same should be done when it involves a Muslim (and believers of other religions). Because if a Muslim had done this, many people will push narratives, making it a religious thing and not focus on who did the wrong, and such acts fuel discrimination.
People didn’t stop going to theatres because of Netflix, Disney+, or Prime Video. They stopped when snacks started costing as much as the movie ticket.
