just finished watching TempTest, and I am honestly outraged. This series disrespects Muslims and Iraqis by portraying Iraq as nothing but a war-torn land of terrorists — which is completely false and offensive. Iraq is not just some background for bombs and war scenes. It is one of the oldest civilizations in the world, far older than Korea, with history, culture, and contributions to science, writing, and law that shaped humanity. We gave women’s rights before many European nations even considered it. Yet TempTest chooses to spread lazy, racist stereotypes about Iraq and Muslims. It ignores the reality that Iraq today is safer than what this show depicts — and in many cases, safer than some places in Asia that are never shown this way on screen. This is not just bad storytelling — it fuels hate and ignorance. In 2025, we should be moving past these harmful portrayals, not normalizing them. TempTest owes an apology to Muslims, Iraqis, and anyone who cares about truthful representation.
