Thanks for owning that and given your story I want to share your experience. I am emotional about it too if not at the same level. I can’t stand the brainwashing, shame, coercision and implied threats of violence and abandonment that can go along with Hijab. |timestamp=5:11 PM · Mar 01, 2020 }} {{Tweet |image=Eric profile picture.jpg |nameurl=https://x.com/EricRWeinstein/status/1234164566105313281 |name=Eric Weinstein |usernameurl=https://x.com/ericweinstein |username=ericweinstein |content=@YasMohammedxx @KDRasmussen We aren’t conflicted there.
