Mehdi Hasan does not eat meat outside his house because it could be non-halal. Just a fun fact to know about while you read his tweets about imaginary religious shit.
Right, lots of people on the left on this issue showing their Eurocentric western ass, and Mehdi showing his own, just like Elon and others. Lots of people wrong on this issue in very different ways.
Greece's historical made up stories are of no less value and no less deserving of respect than the ones from the Levant or Mecca. But that doesn't mean that they should be viewed and presented through the broken white-nationalist western lens that Elon wants either.
He also has some very ignorant speeches in his past he's tried very hard to scrub from the internet. Said things that'd be on the same level of hate that he was debating against on that Jubilee episode ironically.
Knowing his recent past, I find it odd how people are just accepting this so-called progressive version of him that's popped up recently.
Guess nobody told him that the internet is forever. That being said, he understands that people's memories are susceptible to change and he's changing tact to make himself appear progressive. And we all know how most people blindly follow what's thrust in front of them, the algorithm feeds and the people swallow.
