    Whenever I see some moronic term like “Stop Woke” it just translates in my mind to “Stop Education”.

    Not so fun fact:

    It is popularly known in Nigerian and Western media as “Boko Haram,” which means “Western education is forbidden” (the word boko is a holdover from the colonial English word for book).

    Too many similarities between these guys and republicans these days.

        Man I tried to get more cultured by reading 1001 Nights and boy lemme tell you I couldn’t even make it that far because it was literally a whole buncha (muslim-coded, not the main concern here) incel manosphere bullshit but written in the middle east however long ago. Legit there was one story about how a lady was cheating on a djinn who kidnapped her while he slept and the message was "man, if removed cheat on BIG, STRONG men like him, removed will cheat on anybody" This comes after one of the characters (a king) finds out that his wife was having orgys with all his “large-membered, intellectually-inferior, dark-skinned servants” (paraphrasing). There was another story about how it’s a man’s moral obligation to beat his wife. Apparently every incel talking points including “BBC” is at least as old as that damn book.
