I went to Qatar in February of 2020 on a photography work trip for a hotel that was launching there.

It was the first time in my life I had seen slavery.

Qatar was building new infrastructure for the World Cup and brought in thousands of slaves from other counties to do the work.

It was truly horrifying.

Something like 6,000 of them died just building the roads and stadiums.

So… when I saw all those conservative influencers posting about Qatar and how beautiful and amazing it was…

That set me off.

Qatar used actual modern day, real life SLAVES in like FIVE YEARS AGO to build those skyscrapers you’re standing in front of, you dumbasses.

Sit the fuck down.

In 2015, Jimmy Carter had brain cancer. In 2019, he broke his hip. That same year, at age 95, he fell at home requiring 14 stitches. Despite his injuries, he showed up the next day, to help build houses for the Habitat for Humanity.
RIP Jimmy Carter 🙏

Quick reminder that China is Putin's biggest enabler in his invasion of Ukraine. As US tariffs flood the world with cheap Chinese goods, there is absolutely no gain in allowing these goods into your country. That applies above all to the EU. China is indirectly waging war on you.
