Don’t care. We can free people like this from their hatred after they’ve been freed from imperialism.
“Oh no this guy living in a literal genocide doesn’t hold views that are not worse than people I deal with daily irl and online, I guess his people deserve genocide then wow”
Anyhow the oop clearly isn’t educated about queer people, otherwise he wouldn’t claim that they don’t face poverty, disease and hunger. Also, they’re this angry about other Muslims and Arabs, which is fair enough the entire world failed them.
“After careful consideration…I am now okay with the genocide of not just an entire ethnicity of people (presumably arabs), but also of the entire adherents of Islam based on a quote from one person”
is really how these people expect us to react to this
It’s really telling on themselves, isn’t it. Implies that they view caring about the wellbeing of the oppressed as conditional charity based on how nice of a victim the oppressed are, so they expect we will view it that way and abandon a people being genocided because of such a statement. On top of the gross implications that they’re monolithic and one internet poster can speak for all of them.
I would bet this only came up in conversation anyway because of the blue maga people saying vote for Kamala the genocide supporter because Trump the genocide supporter will take away minority rights in the US. I read it a few times and that’s what it reads like a response to, to me; the kind of people who are willing to throw another oppressed group under the bus with the belief it will save their oppressed group.
These fucks see a person’s value as conditional according to how well they submit to their supposed place in the hierarchy.
They believe we similarly condition our solidarity and support for the oppressed (just based on perceived progressiveness) because they can’t imagine anything outside the transactional nature of their selfish value system.
They want so desparately to pit us against one another. They perceive it as unfair that oppressed Muslim peoples get our support while we criticize them for supposedly holding the same views. As usual, due to their desire for social regimentation, they expect us to have a hierarchy of oppressed statuses that determine someone’s worth as a human being.
The fact that we don’t stereotype them as Muslims as being categorically violent and homophobic, and support their systematic murder accordingly makes them BIG MAD. They keep trying to paint this as hypocritical, but that logic only works if you have an extremely punitive value system that bends to the slightest transgression.
r/EnoughCommieSpam is a subreddit full of fascists with ridiculous rage bait takes. If you want to keep your sanity, don’t scroll through that subredddit. It is just low hanging fruit.
I have read Raafi al-Kamel’s text in full, and my opinions on the Islamist section of the Palestinian resistance remain unchanged.
I’m sure this person is an exact representative of every single person who practices Islam.
wait until you hear about progressive islam
If I was writing off entire contingents of people solely because a certain percentage of them want me dead for reasons of religious conservatism… Well, the whole world looks pretty bad in that regard.
As far as that openness and sexual perversion go, clearly it’s worth sticking up for seeing how many institutions of reaction are opposed to it. Hell, even if there wasn’t utility there I would anyways. I dislike the idea of having to live on the straight and narrow.
