I love it when my LaTeX problem ("why is my multirow cell ragged right instead of justified") can be answered by reading the documentation.

![[...] In this photograph this Armenian lady is from Arcakh region of Armenia and she is holding a rug of Artsakh design. Since jews with the help of azeri turks have recently conquered Artsakh (in 2020), they are now trying to have the international community believe that the region belonged to them. Therefore they have invented the term "mountain jew". In fact there was no such a population in the region.
Therefore the claim that this is a jewish woman representing a jewish rug is more than ridiculous, since jews never had rug weaving, and still do not. If they had rug weaving, what is hindering them to weave a rug today and show the international community that they are rug weavers.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:vud3ansid5fjjm2lpq6hqbmb/bafkreibeopwk4z65h2snqu7ggjgzhagnpdrgfllbovm3sonahjyudoj2km)
