MeanwhileOnGrad@sh.itjust.works•It's baffling to me that hexbear claims to be the most trans-positive space online while also having mandatory support of Hamas, the Houthis, Russia, Iran, etc. as a core part of the site cultureEnglish
6·7 months agoSure, framing it as mandatory wholesale support for x,y,z is disengenuous the same way it would be to call someone who is not vehemently against the United States as a concept in its entirety a bigot due to their current persecution of racial and LGBT minorities. Multiple things can be true at once but when you zero in on specific injustices that nearly the entire world exhibited just 2 decades ago and apply the same standard to people experiencing very different conditions (for example, people who have only known conflict for their entire lives and have not had the same opportunities that rich, safe countries have had) then it comes off as dishonest or at the very least just very myopic and ill informed. Should those injustices be criticized: yes. Are the people pointing out the perceived hypocracy doing it because they genuinely care about LGBT people impacted in those countries: no. I don’t agree with all perspectives expressed in the other direction but I understand why they exist when we exist in a space where certain people are painted with broad strokes while others are afforded infinite nuance in their positions.

World News@lemmy.world•Massive explosion at Iranian port kills 14 and injures hundredsEnglish
24·10 months agoVery reminiscent of the Beirut port explosion of 2020
2 things to note: They want to deport him to Syria or Algeria and not to El Salvador so hopefully he remains free at least.
The judge making this assessment is part of the executive branch and not a federal judge and made it on very literal terms (spineless and ethically bankrupt but not the final decision). Secretary of state said hes is a threat to US foreign policy in writing therefore he can be deported as the law states that he can be deported if the secretary of state says he is a threat to US foreign policy.
Claimed. Thank you

Canada@lemmy.ca•Canadian Muslims outraged as Quebec moves to ban religious symbols at schools, including hijabEnglish
12·11 months agoThe reporting in French I saw said “voile integral” which is niqab/burqa and I checked the bill itself and it just said face covering (excluding medical purposes)

Canada@lemmy.ca•Canadian Muslims outraged as Quebec moves to ban religious symbols at schools, including hijabEnglish
191·11 months agoI don’t think this law bans all hijab but just the niqab which is the one that also covers the face and is generally seen as fundamentalist in most Muslim countries. The bill itself says face and not head covering. Not to say that this entire bill isn’t driven by some level of xenophobia (Christian symbols and holidays are seen as heritage/culture while non-Christian ones are seen purely as religious etc)

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Can I still consider myself a “young woman” after I turn 24? I turn 24 in March (next month).English
18·1 year ago18-24 usually gets grouped together for census and survey stuff so you got a good year left in the tank before you’re part of the 25-44 crowd
It refers to either a limited time reward structure where you pay for the ability to earn rewards such as cosmetics or other perks in multiplayer games such Fortnite and Valorant (If you don’t earn the needed XP within the designated timeframe then you may not even get those rewards you paid for) or access to DLC content in general for both single and multiplayer games where some functionality/maps/modes are gated behind a single or recurring payment.
Biden sent $8 billion in weapons immediately before he left office and Trump reversed the pause on 2,000lb bombs and sent $1 billion immediately after taking office
You clearly don’t care about whether or not 2,000lb bombs were available and in use. You just care about whether a performative gesture was made.
And they clearly never ran out of 2,000lb bombs to use. They just happened to need some more now.
Yup, he just sent them at least 14,000 of them before doing that. More than all other bombs combined according to leaks. 2000 pounds bombs were in use in September in Lebanon.
A lot of Dearborn’s Arab population is Palestinian and Lebanese and had/have family at risk of being killed. You know when those 2,000 pound bombs get shipped to Israel they actually get dropped on people and kill them, right?

Motherfucker, literally 65% voted for women.





















Allah is “the god” in Arabic and applies to the Abrahamic religions. Similar to Algebra but also has a contraction with the Al/“the” part.
