I'm sorry to disappoint you, if you came here looking for #Islamophobia.
My toot was about #comfortingLies & #unpleasantTruths involving
1. Militant Terrorism — #AxisOfResistance
2. Geopolitical Calculations — #Arabism
3. History of #Palestine before #FirstAliyah — which predates #Zionism
I DO try different angles to make things exciting. Which of the 3 angles did you find new, exciting, or racist, & why?
Please share to help me hone my message! Thx

#ComfortingLies spread by #US #GOP candidate Vivek #Ramaswamy include #GreatReplacementTheory, tapping on #MAGA anxiety just like #Iran-led #AxisOfResistance has tried to do with #Palestinian anxiety since before #WWI ➡️ https://mastodon.social/@rameshgupta/111494053066953051
At the root of both sets of lies are #competition and #economic anxiety.
Like Palestinians, MAGA will lose EVERYTHING, including control of their OWN lives, once #Trump is reelected.
#Muslims worldwide will lose even MORE
