Basically as long as you don't link your bank account with your social media accounts in any way, you'll be fine. Basically don't put your real name on your social media accounts, which no doubt you don't do anyways. Don't for example add bank information to say a Google account linked to that social media account.

The bank only sees the information you provide it, which is where you send your money and where it comes from. A bank cannot rat you out unless you are sending or receiving money from something illegal in your country.

A government investigating you on say social media might try to obtain information about your account to eventually tie said account to a real person. For example, you might use a Gmail to sign up to a queer site, and that google account might have bank information if you have Google bank information. Then the government will use said bank information to identify you. Just don't put your bank information on anything linked to your social media accounts.

Good news, in the Islamic Republic of Pakistan, being transgender is a protected class, you can change your gender legally by just going to the government identity office (nadra) and sex reassignment surgery is perfectly legal and practiced. This was put into law by the Transgender Person (Protection of Rights) Act 2018 but that was really just a codifying of a 2010 supreme court case. And even the Islamist opponents of the bill didn't want it struck down but to add a medical board to disallow self-determination. Its one of the most liberal trans rights laws in the world, and by far the most I'm a Muslim country. It's not all sunshine and roses though, there aren't any criminal penalties in the law for example, so the enforcement relied on prosecutors filing civil cases or injured parties filing cases. The social acceptance is far behind the progressiveness of the law too. However, trans people are pretty decently represented in the media too, though there is definitely an exploitation film aspect to it.

The right to return is like a major demand of the Palestine movements. Of course this is something Israel is never going to willingly allow.

For one an influx of foreign moderate Palestinians bringing foreign money and foreign connections would seriously bolster the power and palatability of a Palestinian state.

The genocides and wars of conquest by atheistic communist nations pretty much confirm that religion is an excuse. Moreover, as organized religion declines, we have seen a corresponding rise in both new age pseudo religions and magical thinking based pseudo cults.

It's just a poor country thing. How are you gonna prioritise crime happening in other countries when you barely keep up at home.

It's kinda like when third world countries get criticized for poor women's rights or LGBTQ rights, when a third of the country lives in absolute poverty. The former things are important, but the latter causes suffering on a whole different scale.

Theres actually another. The Red Crystal, used in countries that are neither Christian or Muslim, though it really only exists because IRCCM didn't want another religious symbol, i.e. the Star of David, especially since Judaism is a tiny religion (Voodoo is 4 times larger for example). So they compromised with a crystal and let the Palestinian and Israeli chapters in. In Hindu majority India for example basically only the crescent and cross are used.
