Wow never thought being a queer humanitarian aid worker would work up a room but whilst you’re here, check out the point of all of it. My work:

Ibrahim el Sakr: Without Christians, Lebanon Would Be Souk al-Hamidiyeh

“Without its Christian community, Lebanon would become Souk al-Hamidiyeh, with nothing left but riffraff,” Political Activist Ibrahim el Sakr said on Pen Media’s Bi Arda program, citing scenes on the Champs-Élysées following Pope Leo XIV’s visit to France.

New York City rejected the status quo. The reaction of everyone who violently upholds the status quo is so fucking satisfying today.

This is a journalist who’s making shit up about Muslims. Sister, you’re a racist who lies. Get another job.

I've never see Jews stringing up little girls because they wore lip gloss or jeans. I've never heard of Jewish rape gangs. I've never heard of Jews forcing their women to live every moment of their public life peering through a slit in a black sheet. Jews never blew up our buildings or beheaded Christians.

You have a problem with Israel. Fine, register your geopolitical opposition to our foreign policy with regards to Israel. But I've never been afraid of what a Jew would do to me or my daughters.

Wow self awareness Donna. You leaked questions to HRC and stood in the way of Bernie. What’s happening should have already happened no thanks to you.
