@WuthPersona@montypythong How exactly would one approach being a feminist without considering men? This is like questioning a Communist for thinking about the bourgeoisie 😂
@beegirl_thehive@jimgeraghty You’re right, but that doesn’t make his actions any less terrible. This is your opportunity to show the world that Americans do actually know how to hold their politicians accountable. Speak out against him, don’t excuse him. You don’t want any more filth in charge.
@K3nB3n Quranism is actually quite progressive, to be fair, it’s the hadiths (written 200+ years later) that contain most of the controversial beliefs and practices followed in Islam. For example, the Quran only instructs women to cover their chests with hijabs. It’s very interesting 🤷🏼♂️
@creekandholler@ZaidJilani He’s also a man, a man with a lot of money. Multiple factors can influence your level of privilege (he’s also not the President of the United States, so it’s not very comparable).
@howertonjosh Yep. Christians have been manipulated into thinking they had to vote Republican for decades. So glad people are finally realizing how the marriage between the GOP and evangelicals has weaponized scripture to justify so much harm.
@saintansgar220@krkiki92@Zoya_ki_batein@ma1ybe Do you not recognise how insane this all sounds? I’ve attached some of my personal favourites. Most points can be completely debunked with only a rudimentary knowledge of ancient history and geopolitics, while the rest can only be described as the result of delusional psychosis.
@HusseinJos28588@AbuHafsah1 The Quran still refers to the Goddess Allat, but she is now one of the daughters of Allah- al-Lat, al-Uzza, and Manat. The creator God and the Goddess had different names in Arabian Polytheism, but I believe they merged over time. They both translate to the God and the Goddess.
@HusseinJos28588@AbuHafsah1 His name comes from “Allat,” meaning “the God.” This term was used to refer to the creator God (and Goddess) from the Arabian polytheistic pantheon, but it eventually morphed into a term for God in general. All monotheistic religions from that region developed from polytheism.
@saintansgar220@krkiki92@Zoya_ki_batein@ma1ybe This is such nonsense. You should redirect your energy into fantasy writing, you’d be an excellent author, because this is very creative to be fair 👏🏻
@saintansgar220@krkiki92@Zoya_ki_batein@ma1ybe You can be against zionism and the state of Israel without engaging in racist (and borderline psychotic) conspiracy theories against Jewish people. How odd.
@faustianwigger@prochoicenun Have you ever wondered why that may be the case? It’s unfortunately not shocking to hear, considering their rates of parental abandonment and abuse, childhood homelessness, crime victimisation (especially SA) and overall oppression- and this demonisation is only getting worse.
@saintansgar220@krkiki92@Zoya_ki_batein@ma1ybe By claiming that white supremacy is Biblical, you’re also implying that we hold some level of superiority over Jesus, just because we happen to have ancestry from a region further north-west. I’m sure God would’ve chosen Iceland or somewhere whiter instead, if that were the case.
@saintansgar220@krkiki92@Zoya_ki_batein@ma1ybe Jesus was a Middle Eastern Jewish man from modern day Palestine. “There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither slave nor free, there is no male and female, for you are all one in Christ Jesus.” Hatred and division is the opposite of His word, He taught us to love everyone.
@faustianwigger@prochoicenun I have transgender friends, they are very happy people, they don’t live their lives in constant misery, especially when they’re allowed to express themselves without being subjected to hatred. If my daughter ever came out to me, I would do everything in my power to be supportive.
@faustianwigger@prochoicenun Without modern medicine, a significant amount of people you love would be constantly unhappy and in pain. Social norms also change over time, people shift their behaviours constantly to adhere to the moral values and attitudes of the group or community they’re a part of.
@saintansgar220@krkiki92@Zoya_ki_batein@ma1ybe I’m happily married to a woman, thank you very much 😂 I love gay people though, and women, people of colour, transgender people, Muslims, Hindus, everybody! I believe in equality and love, and I think that is what Christ would’ve wanted me to embody. God is love, after all.
@faustianwigger@prochoicenun Take a step back for a second and think about how you sound right now, this isn’t normal at all, please seek help. Life feels much better when you carry yourself with kindness and a positive attitude towards others. Ruminating in hatred takes a toll on your mental health, bud.
