Very well said, I would also add
one of the factors that slowed Muslims nations development is that the international monetary system isn't compatible with Islamic finance doctrine, especially the usury (making money, lending money).In a verse from the Quran, people who engage in this practice are actively waging war against God.(That's how bad its perceived).

[Quran 2:276-280] God condemns usury, and blesses charities. God dislikes every disbeliever, guilty. O you who believe, you shall observe God and refrain from all kinds of usury, if you are believers. If you do not, then expect a war from God and His messenger. But if you repent, you may keep your capitals, without inflicting injustice, or incurring injustice. If the debtor is unable to pay, wait for a better time. If you give up the loan as a charity, it would be better for you, if you only knew.

There is considerable development in last decade in Islamic finance to make it compatible with international finance, so that might bring capital to those nations to invest in education, Infrastructure and manufacturing which should instate stability.

One of the factors that accelerated the western nations development, especially in the last century is the invention of fiat money and the infinite money printing.

@StoneLi @awethon That's the beauty of the fediverse, I think we should promote the heck out of this technology instead of promoting monopolies. Plus I can't imagine the nightmare moderating a channel of +1k active user on telegram.

@StoneLi @awethon Reddit is becoming a leftist echo chamber, FB and twitter are working toward that goal.

@StoneLi @awethon Same as any other Social platform, media and political pressure, they always start censoring the most radical groups and then they progress censoring until silencing a whole political view point.

@StoneLi @awethon I know, but still don't you think that they would have the same pressure to censor speech if they gain the same notoriety as Twitter have?

@awethon @StoneLi Ridiculous. a messaging app wanna be a social media network.

@histoire @valleyforge
Any sources for that claim?

@sotolf@fosstodon.org @werwolf @fatboy

@sotolf@fosstodon.org @werwolf @fatboy

Yeah that's the culture he lives and grow up in, can't blame people for not embracing woke culture.

@sotolf@fosstodon.org @werwolf @fatboy
How so? Mozilla are hypocrites, they claim they advocate for free speech and support censorship.
