Still one of the most beautiful mosques I’ve come across.

They had to undergo all sorts of things we can’t fathom today, at the hands of their families, in-laws, and even colleagues. They didn’t have the luxury of coming on social media and finding the support of virtual communities who would rally behind them.

Although we want to hope that some part of society is beyond the culture of abuse, that all ‘allies’ are good, we must remain vigilant. The context of identifying red flags needs to be widened to encompass social justice circles, the use of social media & all aspects of life.

Today, we see the importance of ‘being political’ & ensuring that those in power are accountable, appropriate policies are implemented, funds are traceable, & positions are given to capable, qualified leaders. In times of crises, all our lives are in their hands.

I wonder how many people calling for Velizinee’s head on social media also posted RIP Chester Bennington posts. How easily these people pick and choose whom to offer compassion to. Compassion everyone deserves.

As global movements become accessible through social media, each generation becomes more conscious than the last. For instance, what we are seeing in the past weeks of sexual violence survivors coming forward.

@zueshan Perhaps, focusing on strengthening civil societies that focus solely on such matters, devote manpower to compiling statements and evidence, and providing support so that a culture is created where victims can come forward and have it mean something should be the focus?

I don’t expect politicians or public figures to be perfect or infallible. I do, however, expect them to be accountable and to do better when legitimately criticized - as opposed to taking any and all constructive criticism as a personal attack or, worse, a sign of ‘disloyalty’.

@zueshan Recent examples, Mughni, Ziyada. People came out publicly & were accused of lying, using the accusations to come out for their own personal gain, accused of being vindictive or the personal favorite of ‘crazy’. Public shaming & evidence didn’t stop Anni from interacting w Mughni.

Why they try to cultivate (for lack of a better word) ‘cool’ personas, whose approval younger generations would want, allowing them to push boundaries. It is terrifying how many people parrot social justice language as a facade for their abusive ways.

“If ignorance of the law is no excuse, drafters of laws and legal instruments carry a significant burden, to make their meanings clear.” The programme outlines for the #CLC23 are so interesting; I can’t wait to attend.
