A couple of days ago i noticed something off with blahaj.zone. I couldn’t see images posted by users on blahaj, so i thought it was a problem on their side.

Well guess fucking what? After 3 days, it was STILL broken, so i opened it and…

Blocked. They fucking blocked blahaj.zone. Actually beyond parody🤦‍♂️ Why? What was the point? there’s trans content literally everywhere on lemmy. what’s next, block them all? So now if i want to see a post by a user on blahaj, i have to turn on my VPN (protonvpn.com is also blocked in saudi, jfc) just to see it. Fuck this place. 🙄

I swear a couple of days ago it worked. This is a mild annoyance (hence the community) but still.

It’s so over guys, MBS said no more 196 😔

      I’m not sure if this is a joke or not, but don’t worry, there’s no law against it, and it’s normal.

        I’m sorry, I should have used “/s”. It was a dark sarcastic joke, because in that region people can get the death sentence for vague things like sorcery, witchcraft and also (from the perspective of my region) totaly harmless things like homosexuality.

          Ohhh, sorry 🤦‍♂️ But yes, we take “witchcraft” very seriously here for some reason. (Also with gay people, but at least gay people are real). Some are beheaded, others are crucified.

          Edit: here’s another fun fact, did you know you can get stoned to death for adultery, even if you’re straight? Even if you’re raped, you need 4 pious people as witnesses. If you cannot find them, you will be punished.
