    Really what this points out to me is there’s no point in caring when there are squabbles about the oldest [thing all people do]. I guess it helps teach people that the education they received growing up was inherently biased towards their local culture, and that’s OK as long as you recognize it.

      It’s just white washing history.

      There has been a major propaganda campaing to claim thay Islam centers were there to bring light to people through education when, no fucking shit sherlock - everything else was punishable by death by the cut weeny cult.

        Where did you source your information on Islam and the Caliphates from? Disney’s Aladdin? You don’t realize how much of our conception thereof is shaped by 18th and 19th century white supremacists pretending to be intellectuals.
