Memes

As an Egyptian, I've had to constantly talk back against multiple people with the usual "all middle eastern countries are iran" bullshit, I thought I'd escaped it when I left reddit, but nope, apparently in Egypt Hijab is forced by law, I just didn't know Egyptian law and needed a European ~~redditor~~ lemming(?) to give us all a white-savioresque lecture on it.

Many people don't know this (surprisingly), but reddit is racist as fuck, like one of the most racist platforms I've ever been on, it's really well cloaked racism (usually, r/Europe and r/Worldnews are openly racist) , but it's everywhere, and OH GOD the white Savior Complex so many redditors have is infuriating.

But hey, at least on lemmy I can correct it, on reddit I'd be swarmed by westerners who think they know more about my country than I, a person living there, do, and will proceed to tell me I'm very wrong.

They push this so far, I've had them lecture me, someone FROM GIZA, on the "correct" position of the pyramids.
