Were you not alive in his 30 years of dictatorship. We had a few CDs of the og mdpians speeches that everyone secretly watched and he'd crack down on those too. We were terrified of being found out coz he was a fucking dictator. That's the only "debate" he had

@TropicTales @maumoonagayoom He said to debate, then banned every debate and prohibited organisers from holding another debate. He said to debate and arrested speakers from the debate. He did not give anything up. The people of Maldives rejected him. In the end it’s always the people. Always.

@TropicTales @maumoonagayoom Lets stop whitewashing a dictator of 30 yrs. There has been no justice for all the ppl that were disappeared, tortured, & murdered under his rule. Not to mention all the other crimes. Those reforms were the result of the resistance & suffering of ppl who fought for our freedom.

Bro allowed reforms, opened debate, and gave up consolidated powers. He lost in 2008—and never ran again, despite chances in 2013, 2018, 2023. Anni defeated in 2013. Still, 18 years on, a parasitic urge for power drives him. True GOAT is @maumoonagayoom And DRP was better!

If I ever got superpowers like telekenisis and invisibility or if I were a jinn, i would use my powers to psychologically fuck with evil people like Rowling, pedophiles, and powerful ppl responsible for the worlds suffering, till they lost their minds.

The west killed Hind Rajab, made a movie about it, cried themselves red in the face at the movie, and then turned around and made 200 more Hind Rajabs before their crocodile tears were dry.

Press Release: Death and serious injury of workers at the Waste Management Corporation Ltd (@WAMCOmv): more than an alleged crime – it raises questions over employer responsibilities, workplace safety, labour rights, and accountability. democracymaldives.org/?p=506

How has Maldives been able to turn a blind eye to the annihilation of Muslims and other religious minorities in India? Every government has condoned it over the past several years. Shame on all of you! Read the report here -> genocidewatch.com/single-post/th…

Never forget when this BBC wildlife crew broke their “no intervention” rule to save these trapped penguins 🐧❤️

I met a nurse years ago who worked with young pregnant girls who were victims of incest. She told us the girls did not understand the correlation between sex and pregnancy because…. they had been abused all their lives. They thought this was just how life was, as though this was what everyone did….normal…. Stop blaming the victims..

Congratulations! Where there is even a glimmer of courage, the truth will continue to succeed 🎉🎉🎉 #ShutElbitDown #StopTheGenocide

When Franklin Joined Charlie Brown In 1968, It Turned A Simple Comic Strip Into A Civil Rights Milestone. When Franklin joined Charlie Brown in 1968, it quietly turned a beloved comic strip into a civil rights milestone. Franklin was introduced to Peanuts at the height of the Civil Rights Movement, just weeks after the assassination of Martin Luther King Jr. He was one of the first Black characters to regularly appear in a mainstream American comic without being reduced to stereotypes. Created by Charles M. Schulz, Franklin wasn’t written as a lesson or a punchline. He was simply a kid — polite, confident, thoughtful — who talked with Charlie Brown, shared lunch with him, and later sat beside him in class. That simple act mattered. At a time when schools across the U.S. were still segregated or violently resisting integration, seeing a Black child and a white child treated as equals in a national comic strip was quietly radical. Schulz faced backlash for Franklin’s inclusion, especially when he depicted Franklin sitting next to Charlie Brown in school. He refused to back down. By insisting Franklin remain part of the strip without stereotypes or fanfare, Schulz normalized what much of America still resisted: equality. Franklin didn’t shout slogans or march in the streets — but his presence helped shape how a generation of children saw race, friendship, and belonging. Sometimes progress doesn’t arrive loudly. Sometimes it shows up in the funny pages.

a 16-year-old girl rejected a boy’s note in study hall. he followed her home, doused her porch in gasoline, and lit a match. her family escaped. their dog did not. the fire marshal called it “teenage vandalism.” the boy’s parents said he was “crushed by her public humiliation of him.” her family moved towns. he remained on the honor roll. but please, tell me more about how boys express “hurt feelings.”

When you hear men talking about how they want kids to "continue their blood line" but Nizar Qabbani wrote "Give me a daughter with your stubborn heart, or your even temper. Give our children your dark-bright eyes, or your enchanted smile. So that even when we are gone, the world will find within them all the reasons I loved you"

A fraction of the hundreds of thousands of Gaza martyrs slaughtered by Israel.

Men don't actually hate feminism-they hate that it took away their free labor. Cooking, cleaning, raising kids, being a therapist, a secretary, a personal assistant-all things women used to do for free under the label of "being a good wife." Now that women are opting out, suddenly the world is in "crisis." The "traditional wife" wasn't a cherished role-it was unpaid labor disguised as love. And now that women are demanding actual partnership instead of servitude, men are losing their minds.

Thank you, @Oxfam, for setting a standard for other humanitarian organizations. Do not capitulate to Israel. Push back. @MSF you can learn something from this. “Oxfam refuses to provide Israel with details of Palestinian staff in Gaza”
