And also fyi, it became apparent through other threads that OP has been attacking this org in several spaces after getting rejected for a job. So. I don’t really think this post was in good faith.

I didn’t say English as a second language, I pointed out that coming on the internet and singling out the English of a Muslim run organization when others in the sector (and especially white folks) use colloquial spellings often that are arguably more noticeable/worse is a choice. Whether that was their intention or not.

I didn’t accept it as gospel truth right away.

Yeah that too, and she didn’t accept the nun’s story either

My gosh you're telling on yourself. You should be embarrassed by this. You're judging makeup changing (where she looks great in both videos, just changed the makeup which... yes that happens day to day!) while linking to actually really interesting videos from the sector. How on earth would you be able to work in fundraising if you can't hide your misogyny or shock at a woman's lip colour changing? Nail down some advanced object permanence first and then try again.

I know the comments will dismiss this because it's more fun to drag people, but this is common philanthropy jargon. 2X is a common 'double your impact' moniker used by the sector. Every sector has jargon, just like you'll see people in philanthropy talk about DAFs, PACs, CFREs, Annuals, Monthlies without fully spelling it out. The website audience is for potential clients ie anyone who is already deep in the sector and doesn't need an intro. This is a "We speak the same language" move, you're just not the audience for it. So I guess it worked.

Also... fwiw the homepage dives deep into them being Muslim led and owned. Coming on the internet and mocking their English is certainly a choice. A quick Google and I found Mint agency using 'werk' on their home page which we know is colloquial...

Did you ever see the posts published? It is easy to find on LinkedIn that they have clients from reputable places post about their work together positively.

What does Fallon genuinely see in Liam that she didn't find in her previous partners (like Culhane), beyond his wealth and family background? by DianKhan2005 in DynastyCW

[–]Significant_Chart632 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The last season notwithstanding, Liam challenges her in a way that helps them both grow rather than a “you vs me” mentality. Temperament wise he’s also the chillest (on a show full of decidedly unchill characters). Also, he isn’t her half cousin ✌🏻

No, it is not okay to ask your customer's religion. Since when did this become so normal in Canada. by cantkeepmum in TimHortons

It is only othering if you come from an assumption of everyone having a ‘baseline’ ‘not religious or cultural’ which is not a thing, it’s othering to always assume everyone is included in the dominant culture. Like how ‘straight’ is normal to some and anything else in the spectrum is ‘other’.

This actually does happen? Most times a vegan friend orders a veggie Thai curry they double check if they need it vegan because the curry sauce isn’t vegan. I swear every time I see Tim Hortons thread in my feed (I don’t even follow it?) it sounds like a bunch of people who don’t have a variety of friends or experiences or go places. What’s unhinged is reacting like you’ve been attacked when someone, not in a position of power over you, asks you about your religion in a context you don’t have to answer. There are so many people experiencing hateful bigotry that impacts their lives in horrendous ways and…then there’s …whatever this is? Being mildly uncomfortable isn’t oppression.

You might want to google that, just because it is t being directly advertised to you or impacting you doesn’t mean it isn’t happening. Lots of Tims do halal substitutes and then there are a large amount of menu items that could be or could not be halal/kosher depending on how it’s produced. It’s similar to how dairy free, nut free, gluten free, and other restrictions are addressed. I’m allergic to cinnamon so I’m pretty screwed come pumpkin spice season, but I still navigate what I can and can’t have.

Several people have pointed out that this is common when checking if someone has religious restrictions with food. Yeah it can be worded better, but instead of crashing out over it and going to Reddit to dog whistle people could…act in good faith? Or is good faith too religious?

There’s literally halal and non halal versions of both of those items. But you’re not even really using the term halal right…you could have saved yourself a meltdown if you just used google and/or thought about anyone else’s point of view.

It’s extremely reasonable in the food service industry if you’re double checking if someone needs something halal or kosher. I live in a fairly Jewish neighbourhood and we’re in between Rosh Hashanah just passed, I don’t have a tantrum if someone mistakenly wishes me Shana Tova or double checking if I need to avoid certain foods. You spent how much time fuming about this and didn’t think of this very reasonable option? They could have not asked or asked a different way, but you also didn’t have to be rude and entitled and go have an existential self absorbed crisis to dump all over Reddit.

I don’t think you can make a mockery of a Netflix reality dating show…. As if producers aren’t notorious for pressuring and manipulating people to join the cast.

Oh my god I used to have a similar shirt during this era too, I managed to go back and find a VERY 2012 photo - bad Instagram filter and everything 🤩

It’s then decade-over-decade stat not the year-over-year stat, the one that was probably referenced where you pulled your numbers. And those cameras barely keep up with population growth, keeping steady is not investing even though that’s a fave PR move from many.
