We at @anghami have been working for 8 years proudly in #Lebanon supporting 100s of families, building tech & music to reach over 80 million users from #Beirut.
We're unfortunately, one of the few global startup stories in the country.

We've always recruited based on merit across the Lebanese society, never differentiating between religion or belonging.
Today, because of a tweet that's not endorsed by our company from a personal account, I read calls to fire an employee & boycott #anghami

In contrast, others warn of retaliation with counter boycotts if the employee is fired.
That's our sad #Lebanon life. Our new demarcation lines? Mat7af or Gallery Semaan?
I am very well versed in tech, and know ziltch in politics & would like to remain so.

I respect everybody, and refuse any political association on me, or on my team.
I refuse personal attacks on anyone, and believe in supporting each other despite our differences.

As a country, we've suffered through multiple wars, revolutions, assassinations, economic downturns, famine, ongoing banking crisis, inflation, devaluation & distress. Moreover, most of us believe that we're heading to worse times!

And all that we've learned is that we should continue to attack each other?
Have we @anghami ever dealt into politics or endorsed personal attacks? No.
Do people deserve to be fired in a country that's bleeding unemployment because an opinion? No.

Should local businesses suffer because of political attacks? No.
We're all suffering, we're all in pain. People & businesses.
Our country's economy needs us productive today more than any other day.
I just refuse to be part of either camp.
I am for life, for growth.

I am in the camp that believes that we can build in #Lebanon together.
Since 1975, the country perfected the art of killing each other, and dividing each other.
Today, it's not guns & missiles, it's attacking each other with words and insults.

What if this coordination on social media for both camps could be used to support each other?
What if we work together to build a productive economy, built from #manufacturing #agriculture #technology & more?

What if we can reduce our reliance on external countries: ideologies, people & products ?
What if instead of attacking each other we can make a chain to lift each other?
We're all drowning together.
Wake up everyone.
#Lebanon needs all of us
