Double Good Think @onedayinjune.bsky.social · 30/01/2026Jewish-Islamic relations during the Middle Ages are a whole rabbit hole in themselves; you can generally say *on the whole* Jews were treated better in Islamic than Christian societies, but it was a far cry from modern ideas of 'equality' and bouts of savage persecution did erupt from time to time 2216

Double Good Think @onedayinjune.bsky.social · 29/01/2026I really can't stand 'optimisation culture', this whole idea of working on yourself for the sole goals of wealth and status.
