Porky 🐷
Lina Mukherjee
A Muslim woman has been sentenced to two years' jail time by an Indonesian court for eating pork after offering a brief Islamic prayer—Bismillah—and then posting the video to TikTok. On the spectrum of all that's stupid, that has gotta lie more towards the really-not-a-good-idea end. I'd've thought that, as a Muslim, she'd be behind Islam's strict prohibition on consuming pig; or at least cognisant of Indonesia's strict blasphemy laws.
I guess some people will do anything for clout. (shrug)
Then again, the BBC and other news outlets actually describe her faith only as identifies as Muslim
. Perhaps that's similar to men who identify
as women; a convenience deployed to sidestep convention and slip through the cracks.
