That's only a slightly less well known bad move than getting involved in a land war in Asia or going against a Sicilian when death is on the line.

And of course, there it is.

Ryan’s murder is horrifying. She deserved safety, freedom, and support—but instead, she was failed by the people closest to her and by institutions meant to protect her. What happened to her wasn’t about Islam—it was about patriarchal control and deadly misogyny cloaked in the language of religion.

And that’s not unique to Islam. In ultra-Orthodox Jewish communities, women have been attacked for dressing “immodestly” or denied divorces for years. In some conservative Christian circles, honor, shame, and purity culture have been used to justify abuse, disownment, or worse. This kind of violence is rooted in power, not faith.

It is fundamentalist religion in general that puts women at risk. No single one is devoid of such attacks.

It’s wrong to exploit Ryan’s death to stoke Islamophobia. Doing so ignores the broader pattern of gender-based violence that exists across cultures and religions. If we really care about preventing tragedies like this, we should be talking about how to hold abusers accountable, how to recognize warning signs, and how to protect women and girls from systems that excuse control as “tradition.”

Blaming one single faith just distracts from real solutions.

The best kind of capitalism 😅

Ugh I'm so tired of this shitbag

I'm sure they have trouble sleeping over that

That last bit is me when dealing with people who "aren't impressed" by today's AI.

The topic is the ways that bad actors can mechanically interfere with the election regardless of the actual vote, so none of that applies.

Everyone's allowed to question the legitimacy. After 60 completed cases or so, let's reconvene.

It's just shocking, shocking I tell you, that this court, of whom the majority of justices were appointed by presidents who did not win the popular vote, but rather by ideological zealots, would be a disappointment to the majority of the population who had no say on their appointment.

Shocking.

But God told them to

Fuck religion sucks
