    You think I don’t know? There is a reason that I connect to the internet only via VPN and my country generally uses DPI to censor sites and so on. Half of the population is paralised and propagandised by instagram, tiktok and the national TV. the rest are made to feel very powerless, hell most students are aiming to study the university aboard and never come back afterwards(me, I am the students), I am well aware of the mass censorship and the oppression of our government against marginalised minorities like immigrants, kurds and LGBTQ people(me). We have a putin sittuation over here the same far right fascist party wins every election and my only hope at the moment is to escape

        yea I am an exmuslim, I am against organized religion generally, you are pretty spot on about the country being run by religious zealots I would like to add that not only religion but also fascism plays a big role in our politics.

            I am going to pay back to the community on my own way in the future(activism and mutual aid) but first I need to secure my own safety likely outside of the borders of this country and it’s lonely like you said, tons want to be enslaved because they’re propagandized to think that it was even worse before the dictator. I am a huge privacy and tech nerd myself thanks for the talk
