No one ever says “I hate the people, but love the government” about a country

[AY 🌹 @fascondo]

This strengthens the case for our history of religion where polytheism is the emergent phenomenon, and basically allows us to dismiss caricatures of “Big Man In The Sky” by atheists.

[AY 🌹 @fascondo]

The Sanskrit word स्वतवस् (svátavas) and its proto-Iranian cognate “hwatā́wHā” (that eventually became Khuda) to refer to God that’s “Self-Sufficient” or “Self-Existing” goes to show that ancient religious thought was not anthropomorphic, and had complex ontologies.

I had a phone call with the Syrian government a month ago and they said, “yes mr. @fascondo, we will make the exams difficult specifically for women in Damascus governorate only. It’s done.”

وزارة التربية والتعليم نشرت عبر معرفاتها الرسمية فيديو بعنوان "كيف وصف طلاب الثانوية العامة أسئلة الامتحان"

انتقادات كثيرة وجهت للوزارة على الفيديو من الطلاب والأهالي وخاصة بعد انتشار عدة فيديوهات اليوم لطلاب تشكي من صعوبة امتحان الرياضيات

This shit is so true .

I know that a true red and white Singaporean didn't budget the Singapore entry.

This profile fits a certain niche demographic that isn't even representative of a Singaporean that does earn $5,500 a month lol.

@xertsaa Boomers who go to super Zio churches

[AY 🌹 @fascondo]

I’m actually surprised that Singapore scored that high. “Very favourable” is at 4%, and we all know who these “people” are.

[AY 🌹 @fascondo]

They’re treating Dalil Al-Talib like One Piece bruh

[الجزري @AlJazari_]

Sulayman al-Ruhayli spent 5 lessons, each of which over an hour, just on the three types of water.

After 10 years, he’s only half way through the book with 413 lessons. This is no way someone should be teaching a book like Dalil al-Talib.

[AY 🌹 @fascondo]

Help me interpret my dreams where there’s a recurring figure in a suit who would appear to me every Sunday night, telling me “it’s time to resign lil buddy 😃”.

[AY 🌹 @fascondo]

@nomad_islamist It's just that sometimes when we share news and stuff from unsavoury news outlets or our own personal opinion regarding something, we'd have to qualify the fact that our type of Islam is XYZ and not tankie, not diasporoid, not this or not that.

[AY 🌹 @fascondo]

How you can tell that you’re annoying as a person is when you find that other people constantly have to preemptively qualify their point around you, and speak in a hyper-nuanced and elaborative manner as if they’re an author of a gloss.

[AY 🌹 @fascondo]

The benefit of being around these annoying people is that I do think twice about the logic of the point im making.

[AY 🌹 @fascondo]

@produkzaman I agree, but I think it’s better to treat it as is, since the essentialism isn’t something that’s inherent as a matter of fact anyway. Normie gay kuffar also speak essentially, but I don’t think their gay scholars treat it that way (more of a spectrum).

[AY 🌹 @fascondo]

My hot take is that the “SSA” label, as a substitute to indicate someone being “gay”, is counterproductive.

It tries too hard to assert non-essentialism, which normies cannot ever conceptualise. It’ll just be religious coding for “gay (essential)”.

[AY 🌹 @fascondo]

It’s sort of like the habit to correct other Muslims that it’s “actually ‘revert’ and not ‘convert’” based on your faulty understanding of the Hadith.

The response would be “huh? But that’s the correct convention” though it’s conceptually conceived differently.

[AY 🌹 @fascondo]

Normies discuss local ethnographies regarding poverty, inequality, and class struggle tend to conclude with those very phrases. “Yeah… life is like that, it’s unfair. Complaining won’t change anything”.

They then invent surrogate activities/ambitions, afflicting themselves.

[AY 🌹 @fascondo]

People here who face an intense degree of psychosocial distress—that manifests itself in deleterious self-expectations—are actually facing Divine punishment and curse for browbeating poor folk with “that’s just life!” and “life is unfair!!!” whenever they express their suffering.
