What has matriachy ever done for anyone,never build a society or infrastructure or anything of use! Not everything is the mans faults,bashing men is very toxic mentality that effect your relationship, in the future when you have sons would you gaslight them into submission not allowing them to be masculine making them feminine,are you a supporter of non binary feminist men

you look like troian bellsario

I think Asma is a better example of standards unlike Nour, Nour saying she doesnt like feminism and then saying in the reunion shes pretty and educated which is rare for women to have????? and the weird digs to another woman, girl was it really the comment to make especially in a room where Asma, Karma, Safa are successful business women and Dounia speaks 3 languages fluently while shes a model, closed world view if you think its either beauty or brains But some of the guys said their wants in similar weird fashion so Im not saying shes the only one wrong What I liked about Asma was she was upfront about her wants like wanting a guy who works out, wealthy, liked by her family, had her similar extroverted personality without trying to make it seem different or unique to other girls because shes so special

This is so soo good! Was looking for something intellectually stimulating on this LBH saga for weeks and this just hit the spot!!! Please keep making more videos, Sara. You killed it with this one :)

You can initiate a divorce as a woman

Growing up as an Arab girl when I was younger and used to cry I remember my grandad used to console me and ask me honey why are you crying what do you want the moon I’ll get the moon if that’s what you want👸🏻. But these Arab boys on the show are EMBARRASSING 🥲.

Saraaaaa, thank you for this wonderfull video essay, I just finished love is blind habibi and as always went down the rabbit hole of "what's happening outside the show". I was very frustrated while watching the show because of the double standards that were being applied to the women in the show. In the case of karma, nour and dounia it was just so infuriating to see them being attacked and ganged up against. And I was even more shocked when I saw the hikmat podcast, the disrespect was actually crazy. Dounia is old enough and wise enough to know what is her boundary and what the situation is. Like it's as if her emotions and her boundaries aren't valid as if they know better than her. They were litterally mansplaining forgivness to her. In that same podcast, they talked about the fact that nour says in the show that she "hates feminists" and they were saying that they don't understand why the feminists jumped on her side. They were using it to discredit and critisize feminists as well as Nour. Like "oh those crazy feminists defending someone that does't even like them". Just proves that chafic and hikmat don't understand feminism and never actually tried to. Anyways, you articulated your points so well and definitly put words on the way I was feeling, once again thank you.

If your country was facing an external invasion from another tribe, you would beg for the patriarchy ! Criticize it if you choose but give it respect at least!

Girl this video essay is so good OMG. My favorite cats are the ones in the boxes because they’re literally me 😂. Can’t wait for part 2 💐.

Back with another amazing video essay 🤩

Palestine, like the rest of the Levant, has a Mediterranean climate. Only the sparsely inhabited Naqab desert in the south does not. It's like people have never looked at a Köppen climate classification map or just at images of the countryside and nature in the region, it's as green as any other Mediterranean place. The Mediterranean climate extends anywhere from ca 100-250 km inland from the sea, which is were the vast majority of people in the Levant live, clustering along the coastline just like in other Mediterranean countries.

Love this take. All my homies acknowledge and tackle confirmation bias.

you are so smart i love this video

Loved this!

Such an interesting and well made video well done!!

While the argument could be made to compare Dune to other works which are without question orientalist, claiming Dune is as orientalist without reservation only highlights how little of the source material has been thoroughly read and understood.

I think its important to remember that frank herbert was born a generation or 2 after the indutrial revolution. His ideas on emviromentalism much like GRR Tolkein is founded on an idelistic view of nature from a generation who saw the transition and them being in a generation living in the horrors only just now learning of them. They also write in naratives of mideval time politics and while colonial messages pop up in both works offten thats a product of the eventual transition of the time periods.

How can you misinterpret this much dune lore 😭😭😭 I don't agree on most politics of this but come on at least get the dune part right

I'm not a Dune expert, but from what I understand, Arrakis was made into a desert planet by the colonizers because this made spice-extraction easier. The Fremen are not waiting for their planet to turn green because they are being told to want it by outsiders, they want Arrakis to go back to what it was before colonization long ago. We could compare what an abundance of the spice melange did to Arrakis to what the oil-curse has done to countries like Nigeria. I while back I watched a video about Saudi-Arabia's desert greening and muslims in the comments were talking about a prophecy in Islam. Apperantly there is a hadith that says the land of Arabia will revert into meadows and rivers. If that is the case wouldn't that be a better analogy for the prophecy we see in Dune than "making the desert bloom"?

Prior to 1947 jewish lands were bought legally from palestinian/arab landlords. Cities such as telaviv emerged during british mandate palestine and were set up completely legally. Otherwise i enjoyed your video thank you.

There's a fundamental problem with calling the Jewish settlement a colonial force, as Jews have always lived in the land of Israel since over 4000 years ago. and in modern Israel its a objective fact that the KKL have turned a very large part of the desert into a greener, more prosperous environment, as well as made the north which was already quite green considerably more hospitable to animal life, reducing pollution of all kind and making the nature safer. but the video was interesting and spires a good discussion

But they don’t believe that Paul will make the dessert bloom though. They are saving water to eventually turn it green through their own effort. Also isn’t turning the desert green bad for the colonizers in the movie?

by the way it hypocritical of you to live in us (i assume) which is land stolen from natives by colonialists and criticize israel .

by your own logic , arabs are the real settlers in the region , israel was jewish land way before islam was invented . the place was called judea (the word jewish comes from) , betlhem , Jerusalem , nazreth are jewish cities , there was never a state/people called Palestine. Israel invented irrigation and many other agriculture techniques , israel today is successful not because of foreign money rather by the people of israel who are creative and hard workers . money doesn't buy creativity just ask all the rich gulf states who rely on imported water , or jordan another oil rich country wo rely on israeli water . i know its hard burst your "Noble savage" "white saviour" theory but it doesn't apply here

Give me my brain cells back please

You know that keeping Arrakis as a desert is in the interest of the invaders and not the opposite, right? No desert means no spice. I think you are missing the narrative's main threads, but I appreciated your attempt - subbing to see what you will make next.

Do you think that dune is endorsing tropes such as the white savior, orientalism, making the dessert bloom and all that? Because it feels like thats what you're trying to say. I may be wrong but i don't think i am. But if you are i really don't think you understand dune

Uh oh stupid opinion on a topic you know nothing about alert

Between Paul Atreides in Arrakis and Jake Sully in Pandora on a nutshell they actually play the same scenario but with different settings. No matter what, who, where, and when; colonization, exploitation, and war for the sake of power and resources, how religion become the most powerful driving force for the oppressed to prevail against their aggressor will always playout again and again in humanity history.

this is just wrong to a ridiculous degree.

An interesting argument but a stretch nonetheless

Another great video keep it up!!

Omg i loved ur analysis Tysm for your work !!! Hope ur channel will grow up as much as ur ideas <333

Love the video

Loving the video is informative yet light 🙏🏻💪🏻🫶🏻

Great video!!! Keep up the good work!

You did bring up an excellent point when discussing the cycle of violence and added some cultural context of the Middle East as a whole. As for the cycle of violence displayed in the show, it is quite universal based on my observations during my school days. in retrospect, some of my classmates were probably dealing with some of the things you've mentioned in the video ( to add some context, let's just say that I live in an ethnically diverse city). I watched al-rawabi out of curiosity, after watching your video, I do question if Jordan has any issues regarding censorship? When displaying social issues on media there are limitations on what you can discuss and show, especially in a socially conservative state.

i love that somebody finally made a video about al-rawabi - the way you analyze it is really in-depth and interesting! I was surprised this was your first video bc it was so good lol - it would be awesome if you had the time to make a video analyzing the specific characters or something!

Hii! You seem soo nice and your so cute. When your video popped up on my feed i was thinking you were a big youtuber but you just started. Anyways i subbed ❤️
