143·17 days agoIt’s unfair to imply that Islam has been stagnant for a millennia, when in reality numerous scholars from across the globe have contributed so much to Islamic jurisprudence and still do. “Islam” is a very wide notion and cannot be reduced to a historically and spacially specific vision thereof. You cannot find the same Sharia law in two Muslim countries. Some countries even accomodate different Islamic rites by providing them with parallel legal systems.

Ask Lemmygrad@lemmygrad.ml•Homophobia in the Global South - why?
27·26 days agoHistorically, reaction to queerness in the Global South has been relative to the imperial core’s stance on it.
Homophobia is largely (though not always) a colonial legacy. Many premodern nations, to different extents, were either accepting or tolerant of queer relationships. The colonial authorities criminalized same-sex relationships (e.g. British Raj, French African colonies, etc.). Some postcolonial nations after they achieved their independence, retracted these laws, but the majority didn’t. So for a certain period in the 20th century, queerness was a symbol of anticolonial struggle, because it meant defying the West.
However, as the imperial core and its neoliberal institutions absorbed queer activism into their agenda of foreign affairs, queerness began to be depicted as the face of imperialism.

Socialism@lemmy.ml•The dissolution of USSR is the greatest tragedy of the 20th century
36·2 months agoPeople ignore the global impact the dissolution had. Socialist parties everywhere either rebranded to a neoliberalized form of social democracy or lost their traction. Entire labor movements collapsed and capitalist governments backpedaled on lots of welfare reforms that the working classes fought for with their blood, because there was no more a socialist global power to compete with.

1·2 months agoThis is tantamount to victim blaming and only serves (regardless of intentionss) to justify settler colonialism. Anticolonial resistance is what has been keeping the south of Lebanon safe from occupation, unlike the Syrian Golan Heights. I recommend you read about Israel’s puppet state in southern Lebanon back in the eighties.
