A Muslim American influencer is being criticized for posing a picture with the Afghan Taliban.
According to foreign media reports, Marian Abdi, an American influencer also known as Geenyada Madow, is facing criticism on social media after her recent visit to Afghanistan.
Marian Abdi said that visiting this Asian country is like a dream come true. Not only this, Abidi also posted a picture of himself smiling with Taliban fighters armed with AK-47s, which netizens were outraged by.
Marian Abdi shared the controversial photo on her social media plate account X. In the caption of the post, he wrote “Meeting with Taliban”.
After seeing critical comments on the photo, Muslim-American influencer Abdi responded to his critics by posing a series of questions on social media, addressing users’ concerns about the photo.
He wrote that I am genuinely curious as to what you guys want me to do. Should I avoid visiting Afghanistan altogether? How do you expect a tourist to play politics with the Taliban? Even if I didn’t take a picture with them, would that change anything?
She further wrote that as a foreign tourist I am only interested in seeing the country. Yes, there is a lot going on in the world, but is it all my fault? Other YouTubers made vlogs there too, so why am I being treated differently?
It should be noted that the Taliban took complete control of Afghanistan after the overthrow of the Afghan government in August 2021.
