what really freaking bothered me about this was that zakat’s friend, aafreen, completely minimized how zakat felt about someone who was islamaphobic to her in her youth and who was also connected to a known right-wing fanatic nut. this was wild to me bc why completely disregard a persons experience especially when you share the same identity that the other person was being hateful towards.
