It speaks to the basics behind most fear- people fear the things they can’t understand, comprehend, reconcile. It’s funny but poignant.

I said this last time this kinda thing was posted here, if you have security concerns over someone because they are writing in a different language you are trash

Yes. As a full disclaimer- in VERY narrow contexts that COULD be a FACTOR in a profile of a possible security risk: with other behaviors and signs and a contextual location. But we are talking about extreme pocket cases AND having the knowledgeability to read the situation. But a public place, especially an AIRPORT- where people from all over the world... travel the world.... one might expect to see other languages. Being foreign, a certain ethnicity etc, or Muslim, at an airport isn’t cause for alarm. But I suppose it shows how sheltered some people are- that something “out of the ordinary” to cause concern is seeing a person who isn’t like them or speaks another language.

I had the biggest insight of my PhD during a flight from LA to Amsterdam and I spent several hours scribbling linear algebra. Nobody cared. Now I'm kind of disappointed. Maybe if I had said out loud that it was algebra and that the word came from Arabic, I would have a better story to tell.
