I came across this TikTok recently, after checking it and its comment (& other videos, tweets…etc of that nature), I’m wondering why the left love to idealize an ideology that directly contradicts everything they’ve spent decades fighting for? Why despite the religion’s consequence in Iran and Afghanistan, they’re determined to rebrand it as a cute, harmless lil Abrahamic organized religion?
That, grouped with the scary amount of immigrant UK Muslims, do you think Islam will take hold of the west next?

I don’t know what you’re talking about under the radar. I said what I said. I have lived enough and traveled enough to form an opinion, and just to clarify. In Islamic countries. It’s not the people’s fault. They just don’t know anything different than what they’ve been taught, and unlike in the west most don’t have a large enough sample size of diversity to form their own opinions.
People are people, they are just doing what they’ve been taught. Through a system that fully revolves around Islam. This isn’t a race thing. There are Muslims of all colors.
This is purely a problem of having a society that is also a religion. It breeds an abnormally high concentration of extremists. It also creates an environment where people who don’t necessarily want to follow along in the bad stuff still do because the nail that sticks out gets the hammer.
But even if you choose to overlook all of that. The human rights abuses can’t be denied. Women are viewed as less than, and abused. Why is that? Because of Islamic law. LGBTQ people are tortured and killed. All because this religion is their entire life. Look up countries where homosexuality is punishable by death. Almost all are Muslim countries.
Iran, with its riots are a great example of young people trying to force change, but if you notice even they don’t want to be an Islamic country if they win. Sure, most of them would still be Muslims, but they realize that most of their problems are because Islam is involved in everything.
So, you can call me a bigot all day. I probably am to certain extent against all religion. But it doesn’t make me wrong. Sure, it makes me an ass hole. But I can be an ass hole and right.
You leave open ended statements unclarified with context. When you say this:
It doesnt specify by whom and you leave it open ended, hanging there, for the other person to fill in what you mean. And contextually the person hazards a guess that you mean “by Muslims” based on the statements before and after.
And thats when you step into bigotry. You leave that air of “Well I didnt say Muslisms there” but we all know what you mean.
Grow some balls and fully clarify your statements.
Say the quiet part out loud, so we all can hear what you really mean.
Hey buddy. It’s ok. I said in the first paragraph who I was talking about. The fact that I said I can be a bigot and right means that I’m not trying to not say the “quiet part”. If you want to be purposefully obtuse be my guest. You’ve been dodging me at every turn. Assaulting my character. But not debating me on the facts. Because I’m right, and that’s ok.
I mean for that matter. That whole thing was about your first point of contention with me. “Muslims from Islamic countries”. But, like I said I see that you lack the knowledge to discuss anything of substance. So, I hope you have a great weekend.
So, since you want to ghost me now. I was just looking for the answer to 1 question. How do you reconcile standing up for a religion, a culture, a type of government, (Islam) that is so openly anti-LGBTQ with being a leftist?
I’m not saying anything of the individuals that practice it. This is just about the religion itself. No one else is here. It’s just you and I. Please explain it to me. Because as of yet no one has been able to.
Your statement is built on top of the concept that it is even possible to stand up for a religion in the first place.
Which you cant, its not a person, it’s a religion.
Thats why you are struggling to get answers, you’re asking an illogical question, you may as well ask me about how can I stand up for a banana.
That is the most ridiculous thing I’ve heard all day. People defend / stand up for all sorts of things religions, ideas, ideals.
See that’s the thing. For all your taunts, and question avoidance. You lack substance in your argument. What you said is just blatantly wrong. So, I finally get you to stop deflecting and you say something that is factually wrong and easy to show that it’s wrong.
stand up for verb To speak or act in support or defense of (a person, a cause, a belief, or the like).
Maybe next time instead of deflecting and insulting people to avoid answering questions that make you uncomfortable. Just tell someone that you don’t want to engage.
Anyway man I hope you have a good week.
I dont want to engage with a bigot who tries to pull “gotchas” by building questions on top of nonsensical statements.
Go away.
