We should help piss off Trump
I respect a lot of the things that trump did, but I think that we should help amplify the irgc mockery of him, to help get him really pissed.
To the illegitimate ruler of Saudi Arabia
You stand at the head of a regime that for decades has trampled human rights, discriminated against women and severely restricted religious freedom. In my view, your regime has no inherent moral superiority and no self evident historical legitimacy. The House of Saud took control of lands historically associated with the Hashemite dynasty and the fact that you rule them today does not make your rule just. Israel has no inherent interest in maintaining close ties with Saudi Arabia in its present form. Nothing good can come to Israel from a relationship with such a primitive entity. It will not move Israel forward. At best it can only create problems, complications and damage to Israeli interests. Israel does not have to regard your regime as a natural partner or grant it automatic legitimacy. If Israel's interest is to reshape the political order of the region then Israel should act decisively to promote a different regional order in which the Hashemite monarchy of Jordan could play a central role. There is nothing sacred about a regime simply because it has managed to hold on to power. Legitimacy is not created by possession of power. It is earned through actions. Adam Feder

@Adam Feder I don't agree with a lot of the things that mbs do, but you need to realise that he has to manage a country with a population with a durka level and arab supremacy that is rivaling qatars, and still need to contain and enforce his rule against that much instability, and while dealing with such a population, instead of turning it to another Qatar or Yemen, his progress towards secularism is unprecedented. Also a democracy there wouldn't last for term before it would either turn into a durkacracy or a military state like Egypt.
Fun fact - Islam isn't responsible for the "islamic golden age", it was mostly Persians and other societies who were responsible for it, and it was actually islam that was the cause for its suppression.
We’ve all heard the mainstream narrative about the "Islamic Golden Age"—the idea that a religious boom suddenly birthed modern algebra, optics, and medicine out of 7th-century Arabia. But if you actually look at the historical data, the reality is the exact opposite. The scientific boom wasn't caused by the religion; it was the final, brilliant sunset of the ancient civilizations that the empire conquered, which the religious establishment eventually choked out. Here is what the historical record actually shows: 1. It Wasn't an "Arab" or "Religious" Achievement The greatest minds of this era weren't Arabs, and many weren't even Muslim. Al-Khwarizmi (the "Father of Algebra") was an ethnic Persian from modern-day Uzbekistan. Ibn Sina (Avicenna), Al-Biruni, and Omar Khayyam were all Persians.They wrote in Arabic for the exact same reason Copernicus wrote in Latin—because it was the mandatory lingua franca imposed by the conquering empire. The actual brainpower belonged to the highly advanced, subjugated Persian, Greek, Syriac Christian, and Jewish cultures. 2. It Was Forcefully Funded by the Oppressed Where did the Caliphs get the immense wealth to fund institutions like Baghdad’s House of Wisdom? They extracted it directly from conquered populations through the Jizya (the discriminatory tax on non-Muslim minorities) and the Kharaj (land taxes). In a brutal historical irony, the indigenous, subjugated societies were forced to fund the very imperial machine that rebranded their ancestors' genius as an "Islamic" achievement. 3. Islam Didn't Foster the Golden Age—It Killed It While external invasions like the Mongol sack of Baghdad in 1258 did physical damage, the Golden Age died from internal cultural suicide. The religious framework actively suppressed its own rationalists: Early on, the Mu'tazilites (a school that championed Greek logic and reason) were violently crushed by orthodox Caliphs. Theologians like Al-Ghazali gained massive influence, preaching "occasionalism"—the idea that natural laws don't exist and that everything (like fire burning cotton) happens only because of immediate divine will.
Please share this message with YouTubers
Some of you might have already seen this, but Goldie was banned by YouTube from live streaming under false charges, and the YouTube management team has refused her appeals and refused to even check if her claims were right. Now I know that a lot of YouTubers have their entire career based on YouTube, but Goldie isn't fighting for her career, she is fighting for her people, and from what I've noticed there are a lot of YouTubers and influencers who are friends and allies who might try to contact YouTube on her behalf and raise hell to help her fight this, because her fight is our fight, and we need to help eachother to win this and to help the Iranian people. So please share this, because together we are strong. (Maybe even to piers Morgan, even though I still don't like him)
I figured it out
I think Ana Kasparian just wants to be a Jew 👀

@Amy Aka Mame there is a chasidei umot olam which means the righteous of the world's nations. It used to be the honourary term that we used to give none Jewish people who saved Jews during the holocaust, but I think that it might be a good time to expand it to others who helped our nation, and to be like a honorary Jew. On the religious side there are the Noahides, who are those who have kept the Noahide laws, which in some ways it's closed to being Jewish.
