I asked @RoryStewartUK about the prevalence of anti-Muslim bigotry in modern politics and his reply stunned me. What I wanted to talk about was the way ignorance and hatred (recent examples: describing Muslims praying in public as “an act of domination”, political parties trying to ban the burqa) was now not just harming British Muslims, but also the national interest. How a lack of understanding about martyrdom or Persian nationalism connects to a war that might cause a global depression. I thought he might talk about Karbala, and we did eventually, but he began with a precise and confronting statement: much of what we’re dealing with is, quite simply, racism. And not only that, but the weaponisation of that racism, and its political uses, which he described as “profoundly disturbing.” He talked about arguing with Tommy Robinson. Speculated about possible endpoints for a politics that don’t incorporate dignity and love. And drew a parallel to anti-Semitism in the 1930s. If you haven’t listened to the latest episode of The Exchange yet, you really need to. Listen in bio.

@Vidzyy_ Nobody assigns you a gender. It’s noted as it exists. Just like nobody assigns your hair color or eye color. It simply is.

The day you are born , they assign you a gender that dictates your whole Life. Your name, your identity, your rights, the colour you shall like, the clothes you will wear, the way you must behave, the way you sit, talk, smile, laugh, cry and you expect me to never question it?

@fantasyfooty It makes a lot of sense for him to be black because he’s supposed to be untrustworthy in the first few books and he ends up being one of the only characters to commit a murder.

I'm not against Snape being black in the new Harry Potter series. I'm not against it on principle. There are obviously some pretty awful things and memes being said/shared that are clearly just racist. But it isn't necessarily racist to be a bit annoyed the character has been changed from the book's description, because his appearance carries meaning. 1. Snape is specifically and deliberately described as having "sallow skin" and being "pale." It mirrors the same pale complexion Voldemort has, which is partly why Snape always feels suspicious. They're designed as visual inversions of each other: Snape has a big hooked nose, Voldemort has a flat snakelike one. The whole point of Snape is that he LOOKS like the villain. Everything about his physical description screams untrustworthy. That's Rowling's deliberate misdirection, teaching readers not to judge by appearances. Change the appearance, you risk losing the power of that twist. 2. There's also an irony nobody seems to be talking about. By making Snape the suspicious, untrustworthy, seemingly villainous character AND the only prominent black actor in the cast, you've actually created the exact optics you were presumably trying to avoid. The one black guy is the one everyone's supposed to distrust? How is that progressive? 3. People are making a false equivalence with Hermione being black in the Cursed Child. That's completely fine because the books never say she's white in the text, and it doesn't affect her story either way. Snape's appearance is different. It's written into the plot. 4. The writers now have a real issue down the line. How are they going to portray Snape being bullied when younger? How are they going to portray James Potter suspending Snape upside down with Levicorpus? Surely they aren't going to force racist undertones onto Lupin, Potter, Black and Pettigrew? PLEASE do not turn this into some politically driven TV series where the Marauders' cruelty becomes a racial storyline. That would ruin both Snape AND James.

@Newsforce @paddyney As long as they aren’t pursuing nuclear weapons, I don’t care. We shouldn’t let a Muslim nation have nukes.

‼️ WHAT JUST HAPPENED?! - EUROPE IS MOVING BACK TO NUCLEAR For years, Europe’s energy debate was shaped by fear of nuclear power. That fear built laws, parties, and national identities. Now reality is colliding with all of it. @paddyney looks at Germany’s phaseout, France’s long bet on reactors, and the new scramble to bring nuclear power back. 01:52 - Why Germany became so deeply anti-nuclear 06:32 - Germany’s nuclear exit and what it cost 10:08 - How France built Europe’s nuclear exception 13:43 - The countries driving Europe’s nuclear comeback 17:37 - The promise and limits of small modular reactors 20:24 - Why Germany cannot simply reverse course

Exclusive. Proof TSA workers are organizing with leftist organizations to "fight fascism and Trump" and shut down the airports. And no, they do not want to work with ICE. Hear it directly from a federal employee with the American Federation of Government Employees union.

@BriannaWu Will you trade sports, bathrooms and prisons as well as drop the retarded notion that not wanting to date a “trans woman” because “she” is trans is bigoted?

Trans women don’t need to play in sports. We need access to healthcare. And employment. We need you to stop treating us like subhuman monsters you take pleasure in degrading. I will happily trade sports if you will leave us alone and let us live lives with dignity.

@AndriaDont99498 Most straight men hate modern women because they lack all feminine traits that make them enjoyable. Why do you think passport bros exist? We need to go to other cultures where women are still feminine because most western women have been masculinized.

Adult Harry Potter fans are so cringe. Get a hobby. Read something that doesn’t accompany every noun with an adjective to inflate the word count. Touch grass.

There are videos ON THIS PLATFORM of trans people who do not look like women jerking it in a woman's restroom and ejaculating on the floor or wall and leaving captions like "I'm gonna leave it so they know that a trans person was here 😈" As for sports rules, a girl literally lost her scholarship because a young man claimed he was trans and swam faster than any other young woman had any hope to. Oh, and not long ago a trans mtf was put in a men's prison and you leftoids were saying how awful it was and how they're basically condemning them to be raped to death. If this scenario isn't real, then neither is that one.
