Know what pisses me off the most about that TB post? When Dobby says that he’ll have TB’s fans “have their say” over his death. Like wow, the great and almighty Dobson is generous enough to allow the fans, friends, and family of a man who died of cancer to mourn over him. I’m sure they’re fucking honored by his decision.
Yeah, he does that a lot. Back when Trump one the election, he did a comic about Connie from Steven Universe wanting to wear a hijab the next day and her father saying “no”(because Trump and racist, apparently) and Dobson included the comment that “it’s okay, we understand” like he was granting them permission somehow.
Here you go:
Dear Dobson,
The hijab is used to cover up beauty in fear of not shaming their closet male relative and to not offend ridiculous religious laws. Here’s an old tweet I did from the #fuckhijab.
So no. The hijab is not a defying piece of cloth and it sickens me westerns praise Sharia Law, despite those countries have laws imprisoning gays, transgender, and bi.
Food for thought.

Also, here’s another message for Dobson:
Connie’s last name is “Maheswaran”, which is not only an Indian name (according to official sources, she’s specifically of Tamilian descent), but as others have also pointed out, it heavily impliesthat Connie is a Hindu, specifically a Shaivite(”Mahesh” is one of the many names of the Hindu god, Shiva). And since Dobson is such a “woke” advocate for “inclusiveness” and “diversity”, I’m gonna share a tiny fun-fact about Hindus and Muslims with him;
HINDUS AND MUSLIMS HAVE HATED EACH OTHER FOR CENTURIES, AND A GOOD CHUNK OF THE HISTORY BETWEEN THE TWO RELIGIONS IS THEM TRYING TO WIPE THE OTHER OFF THE FACE OF THE PLANET, YOU STUPID, FAT, BALD FUCK OF A BEAR!
Yes, yes, I know there most likely groups of Muslims and Hindus who have moved past the violence of centuries past, and have learned secularize and adapt to modern times and integrate into Western society (which seems to be the case with Connie’s family, considering they don’t seem to be 100% practicing Hindus). However, as far as the history of India and South Asia in general is concerned, as well as concerning fundamentalists who try to carry over their zealotry overseas, Muslims and Hindus have both basically been at war with each other since the early 8th century, when Islamic invaders attacked and conquered what is now Pakistan, and forced Hindus and Buddhists to convert to Islam (to be fair, not everything was peaches and cream between Hinduism and other religions in South Asia before the arrival of Islam in the region, but the arrival of Islam certainly didn’t help the already bitter religious conflicts in the region).
Dobson assuming Connie to be a Muslim just because her skin isn’t pale and pasty as his is not only insulting to Indians, but it’s also insulting to Hindus who’ve been persecuted by Islamic Fundamentalists. Once again, Dobson shows off how he embodies everything that’s currently wrong with the modern, Fauxgressive, Neoliberal Left (yeah, those words have been rendered to buzzwords, but they definitely describe Dobbo well, and be thankful I didn’t just spout “liberulz” or the like), and how they would rather pander to anti-Semitic Sharia Law apologists, such as Linda Sarsour, and push away Secular Muslims, Muslim Reformists, and even Ex-Muslims who really do want to see positive change in Islam worldwide, as well as the end of the oppressive theocracies which prevent those reformations from even taking shape.
…he did NOT I just… Dobson did NOT
TLDR: Making a Hindu character wear a hijab is equivalent to making a Jew wear a yellow star or a gay person wear a pink triangle. In fact in Pakistan and Afghanistan Hindus were made to wear yellow triangles as branding to oppress them.
Bride burning, honour killing, purdah CAME FROM ISLAM to “protect women from being kidnapped by Mughal emperors. India is STILL suffering because of Mughal rule.
