Something like this happened with one of the anti-Muslim hate crimes due to Orangeman being elected, girl was out with a boy and went with a story. Detestable, but I kind of get it. If I was a young girl in a second gen immigrant scenario I would probably lie too, depending on how religious dear old dad is.
Still fucked up though, could have tried to mitigate a bit.
Yeh good point. We don't know how crazy the dad is, could have been one of those guys into honor killing or sending their kid off back to the Middle East.
No, the accident didn't happens. The teacher showed caricature of mohamet pbuh, and told before that anyone who didn't want to see it could go outside.
I totally realize most people are going to disagree with me here but I feel compelled to say that closing the sub for a joke wasn't a very kind thing to do. We have seen TONS of posts from vulnerable populations talking about how this sub is a source of support and humor in a dark time. Irony and dirtbagism aside, taking away that support without warning was not okay.
You can say I'm being silly, or humorless or reactionary. Whatever. I love the show and I love this community. But sometimes I come home after dealing with ableism and our nightmare reality all day, and this sub is one of many things that make me feel better. It wasn't a good feeling to find this sub closed for the sake of irony. Maybe that's laughable or pathetic. But for me, it's true.
The girl wasn't there the day that it happened, but she didn't make up that it happened. She lied about being one of the students present when it happened.

Damn shame someone had to die for the lie.

She didn't actually make it up, the media is just playing misleading headline games.
The article explains that the incident did happen and other students were present. This particular girl just wasn't there that day.
Media has been fairly disgusting for awhile now, but this kind of smear job on such a young person is infuriating.

These headlines are bullshit

Tbf all my titles are exaggerated bs.

We're on drama, I didn't mean YOUR headline.
I meant the ones the media is using.
2 busslordlowkeybussin 2021-03-10
Lol I saw the word headlines and got confused cause it was plural.
I was gonna say you can't hold me up to the same standard as The Independent, I'm getting paid $0/hr.

I know. Who shows little kids a picture of Mohammed and gets surprised at the result?

Imagine inventing a story to cover up for skipping classes and inadvertently causing the Tenth Crusade.

A little jealous tbh. I wish my words had that kind of weight.
