  1. Saw someone genuinely equating “all men are threats” to Islamophobia/anti-Muslim bigotry, using 9/11 as a rhetorical device, the other day, and my body reacted so viscerally before my brain even registered what was going on. The combination of the false equivalence, the implications of such a perspective, how it’s deployed, to whom (to a brown man, Pakistani immigrant, Muslim human rights lawyer who holds all men accountable), and the person who said that (a non-Muslim Western woman) overloaded my senses.

    As a sexual assault survivor, an Indonesian Muslim hijabi woman, and neurodivergent, it was a devastating experience.

    In what way does being a Muslim, a very visibly Muslim one at that, benefit from a system that places Islam and its believers as default suspects? As a hijabi in a Muslim-majority country, I do have my privileges; I just want to know: how do you think my domestic privileges translate across borders in a way that subjugates and dominates you with impunity, such that the structural discrimination against my religious identity and a specific kind of misogyny experienced by Muslim women that historically became a pretext to bomb a country are equivalent to holding men as a class accountable?

    What is the underlying premise guiding those who see the world through eyes that equate systemic accountability with systemic oppression? How do you see the world? How does your conscience accept such a premise?

    Never mind. I don’t give a fck about your conscience, actually, or whether or not it’s still functioning well. I hope all bigoted scum in the world fkn choke.

  3. من ربك؟

    A materialist and political-theological indictment of Muslim nationalism, patriarchal violence, class oppression, and religious authority that shields harm while policing the marginalised. If you invoke God to legitimise power, then answer the question now: من ربك؟

  4. The Nordic Paradox: even the world’s most equal countries are failing to reduce violence against women.

    Sweden, Denmark and Finland report much higher levels of gender-based violence than the EU average.

  7. What is included in France’s comprehensive law against gender-based and sexual violence?

    * The role of loss within society
    Andreas Reckwitz 's book 'Loss, A Modern Predicament, The first comprehensive study of the role of loss within society", 2025 explains loss not only from a psychological perspective, but also from a sociological one.

    "Loss has come to occupy a central position in late modernity – whether in the consequences of climate change or the entrenchment of negative expectations about the future, the ‘losers’ of post-industrial modernisation or the collective processing of ‘historical wounds’ and of who is acknowledged as the victims and perpetrators of these crimes, in a heightened psychological awareness of vulnerability, in political populism, a nostalgia for things past, or programmes of resilience."

    "Loss is the bread and butter of populism." >>
