PugJesus@lemmy.worldto World News@lemmy.world•Taliban suspends chess in Afghanistan over gambling concernsEnglish7·1 day agoFun is haram because it takes you away from spiritual pursuits.

PugJesus@lemmy.worldto World News@lemmy.world•Over 5 Million Turn Out for May Day in CubaEnglish11·9 days agoThe average American thinks the USA is the greatest nation on the planet and that Americans are the most fortunate people on the planet.
Recognizing that being impoverished in a prosperous and developed country is better than being impoverished in an economically struggling country is not propaganda. America is not the best place to be poor, but it isn’t the worst, and the self-pitying idea that being poor in the US is as bad as or worse than being poor in any country is some utterly ignorant shite.
A poor person in a socialist country still has all their needs met.

You’re living in a fantasy.
