[US] One of the most elaborate scams Iโve encountered and almost fell for it.
That scam is not elaborate. That’s the usual chump-level account-stealing stuff out there constantly.
It’s “elaborate” if your brain’s a turnip I guess.

Yes. This is downstream of the end of the Cold War and the War on Terror. As it became clear that there was no global working class ready to overthrow the Western order, leftists needed another revolutionary class to fantasize about. They began to fantasize about Muslims. https://t.co/EvLWJIHzZ0

Mostly agreed. The left began to fetishize Muslims to a truly bizarre degree after the Cold War.
That’s why (in large part) feminism transitioned to, “A burqa is feminist! All men are rapists, so women should not go out alone! Any skin showing is sexualization!” and such. All part of a larger trend that Noah mentions above.
Terrible stuff.
Almost unfathomable to me how much the Right is intentionally destroying the things that makes the US a wealthy, prestigious and powerful country https://t.co/mA5CmlvP4g

They’d rather rule a dungheap than serve in a utopia.
And they will get their wish soon enough.
I kind of do think that veiling is backward and modernity is better. It's a personal choice obviously, so that's just my opinion. https://t.co/xeWBQuvakP

I’m with Noah. Fuck that noise.
When the burqa became “feminist” is about when I was done with feminism. Veiling and the burqa is anti-human and misogyny always. None can tell me the bottom photo represents more freedom, no matter what inane bullshit doofuses like the clown that Noah cites come up with.
They really won’t be happy to their goal of having women be constrained and wards of men again is met, will they? The left and right agree here; horseshoe theory is very real.
Republicans decided solar and batteries were gay energy, so we lost to China in industries we invented. https://t.co/L8p3zWtjsL
