I don’t think it’s a stretch to comment on Americans always making things about celebrities and influencers, even if there is many facets to war.
This is the facet on the war, of which there are many, that the posts and the commenter highlight and I’m commenting on it because I find the talk of “bloodthirst” and “sad there’s innocent people killed, better take some of those influencers with them” appalling.
Yes you’re really turning into a caricature of the US
You hate influencers, but you guys still make this about the US and its influencers. “Sad there is a war, but please kill our influencers”.
That’s about the Americanest thing I ever read. Not everything is about you and your celebrities.
Plato’s Academy definitely did not start as a mosque… So I guess you’re refering to al-Qarawiyyin University.
Islam did a much better job of incorporating science, so it’s not really comparable to a seminary either. It’s not like they only taught theology there. We owe a great deal to the science being done by Muslims in those days. A hell of a lot more happened there than in the Middle Ages in Europe.
Besides, the university of Cambridge also started as a religious institution. I see no difference. All old universities have religious roots I guess? It took a long time for mankind to come up with secular education so why are the Islamic roots even a cause to question the validity of this university?
I know, I usually do.
But with this I thought it was laid on thick enough so the people who read it as sarcasm read it as sarcasm and the people who don’t deserve to live in confusion.
“In the United States of America”.
The birthplace of freedom and democracy. The beacon of light and justice in the world. So strange that it is happening over there. Who could have seen this coming?
One could expect this to happen anywhere, but in the United States of America? No way.
One person’s hero is another person’s war criminal
I’m not commenting on people staying on topic, I’m saying the topic is always celebrities with you guys. No matter who started it.
And with your excellent ability to stay on this topic, the topic doesn’t change much.
I just called this reaction to the post that was already about influencers the Americanest thing I read, I did not mean any offense.
