🧵A word or two about Assad, as he slithers his way out of history. 1.Assad is one of the 21st century original monsters. He gave anti-imperialism as bad, or worse, a name as Bush Jr has given democracy, and, like Bush, accomplished fuck all else for the cause he lay claim to.

Indeed. Seeing some embarrassing takes from people who clearly don't view Syrians as human beings with agency.

Look man I get the tendency to skepticism bred by the internet but these guys are fucking live overthrowing one of the worst totalitarian police states to ever be conceived by humanity and that’s a fantastic fucking thing regardless of what comes next so it’s okay to be happy

For Western media especially @CNN @BBCNews, can you please focus on the celebrations and joy of the Syrian people? This is our Berlin Wall moment. Don’t ruin it by mentioning ISIS, Al-Qaeda, and Iran every other word. Syrians hate ISIS, and extremism that were created by the regime that has fallen. Don’t repeat cliches and rhetorics of ignorant policy-makers and politicians who care less about aspirations of people yearning for freedoms that we enjoy. The Syrian people are our friends, your friends, and we should be their friends. Focus on hope and the joy of Syrian women and children. Would you please?

#Syria MAP UPDATE: as of 08/12/2024 Syria is free! No more 'rebels', 'loyalists', or 'federalists', in this update there are just 'Syrian Forces'.

I usually sign off for Ramadan every year. But this time, I'm not sure I'll be back afterwards. 🧵 It is worse on here now than when the Syrian conflict was at its nadir. Every single day just denial of basic humanity and cheering on death and suffering.

I cba "curating my feed" or whatever, because it's everywhere. Better to just walk away. Thank you to anyone who's been a good egg during my many misspent hours on here. If I do return, it won't be on this account.

Finally, Ramadan is a time of du'a and prayer. I just want for others what I want for myself and my loved ones: freedom, democracy, dignity and the right to disagree, always. Ameen.

Plush octopus *and* tracksuit, tyvm! Just bizarre how lightly some politicians take trying to destroy someone based solely on a photo on Twitter.

The financial collapse in Egypt deserves much wider notice. In 2005, 5LE = £1.

Why do American conservative Christians have such a fixation on the idea that “they” (as if they’re in control of America or any country LOL) could drop a nuke on [X Muslim country] and only choose not to out of magnanimity. Can’t other countries just as easily do the same?
If Israel wanted to commit genocide, they could do it in one afternoon and glass all of Gaza with the press of a button. Instead, they are sacrificing the lives of their own people to be as surgical as possible against religious fanatics who hide behind children and rejoice in their “martyrdom.” I agree that too often people mistakenly “mythicize” complicated international conflicts, (Ukraine is the Rebel Alliance, bla bla bla) but there is a very clear moral difference between Israel and Hamas not just in the way they fight, but in the values they stand for. Nazi Germany and Japan lost more civilians than America in WWII, but we don’t judge the righteousness or “justness” of one side or the other based on the number of civilian casualties. We judge based on the values they stand for. In this case, Israel fights for civilization. Hamas fights for the death of every Jew and ultimately every other person on earth who doesn’t accept their barbaric false religion.

Planning permission in this area is a nightmare due to flood risk, so housing will be difficult. Dai won't fund the club as it is, he'll pocket the money and then sell the next asset he can. Just do a deal for everything and fucking leave us alone you parasite #ReadingFC

Yesterday three regions of Syria issue joint declaration calling for unity in continuing the struggle for freedom & setting out common principles. It was issued on the anniversary of Syrian independence (March 8, 1920) syriawise.com/joint-declarat…

I think the uni massively overreacted, but I also think that PowerPoint sounded a bit dodgy.
