It is a PRIVILEGE to be able to say that the entire population of a country or region are inherently guilty and deserving of death. It is also exactly the same shit the alt right does.

I've seen people do this to both Palestine and Israel. If you honestly celebrate the murder of Palestinians or Israelis and try to justify it, you are no better than an alt right cult member.

Real people are dying and suffering while you pretend this is a video game.

These are the same people always screaming at us to “assimilate”, “be more American”, “embrace democracy”. Mamdani wins a primary and suddenly it's 9/11 again?

Maybe the issue was never assimilation. We could become as American as possible and it would never be enough. Maybe the real issue is muslims daring to exist outside of the war zones you’ve created in the name of democracy.

An Islamophobic user, and a fun fact

a user, secular-jew, made a post

(There was a photo I skipped).

Which is just insanely Islamophobic and also flat out wrong as a generalization of 1.9 billion people and also I'm very uncomfortable with effectively forcibly converting people ("should be outlawed across the globe"), as I mentioned in my reply (screenshotted because I don't trust this not to be deleted, there was also a prefaced note on how yes, Islam does have its problems and that needs to be spoken about more, especially on the left):

And then they add a comment reading in part:

Never mind that Islamophobia is literally defined as an irrational or excessive fear.

Or that with 5 deadly attacks per day and ~1.8 billion Muslims, assuming even 5 attackers per attack, works out to ~1 attack per 72,000,000 Muslims. For reference, estimates I could find [https://everytownresearch.org/report/gun-violence-in-america/] suggest between 4 and 5 gun homicides per 100k Americans, so assuming even generously all of those are done by one person, i.e., one homicide perpetrator per 100k people in the US, you are 720 times more justified saying this about a random American than about a random Muslim. And this is taking a self described Islamophobe at their word about the number of attacks!

PS: If you know of some sort of Islamophobia-cataloging Tumblr blog or something, please tell me, because I don't. A central database of Islamophobic tumblr bloggers? Is that a thing?

This interview has essentially revealed the bias persisting since the beginning of the aggression on Gaza and perhaps for years – the strong Western media bias towards the Israeli narrative. This interview exploded because we succeeded in presenting the strength of Palestinian narrative and the painful truth that cannot be ignored or erased. This stems from the power of the Palestinian cause’s justice, which alarmed her remarkably.

However, she revealed three things:

An inability to hear the truth as witnessed in a previous BBC interview where they cut the broadcast completely to avoid hearing the facts about the massacres committed b Israel.

Secondly, she displayed a racist element resorting to discussions about women and exhibiting deep ignorance in this area. Because anyone knows Mr.Mustafa Al Barghouti well knows that he is one of the biggest advocates for women’s rights in general. This is a serious racist comment, assuming that all Arabs, Muslims, and Palestinians do not respect women.

Thirdly, she demonstrated absolute unprofessionalism. No one in the world can conduct an interview in this manner.

she’s now in a problem of her own. She isolated herself and now there is an international campaign as understood, demanding for her dismissal with complaint with the British Journalist’s union about her unprofessional and utterly unacceptable behavior.

I interpret her explosion as a result of provocation due to her failure to cover the Palestinian narrative and the justice of the Palestinian cause, a fantastic reaction expanding globally. In my opinion, this interview has won us more international public opinion than hundreds of other interviews because it clearly exposed the bias of this type of Western media towards Israel. Extreme racism against Palestinians became evident making.

I saw a post on the feminism subreddit today saying hijab is anti feminist. I was surprised to see how many agreed with this statement and all the support the poster got in the comments, which included really hurtful things said towards my hijabi sisters

I thought being a feminist meant we support women's choices about their bodies? So if someone wants to cover their body, why is that a problem?

The poster goes on to say it's anti feminist, backward and oppressive. I am so fucking sick and tired of women having to justify wearing the hijab as well as not wearing it. And I won't lie, a feminist sub is the last place I thought I'd find people arguing about whether hijab should be worn or not

There are women out there who are being forced into it and some who aren't being allowed to wear it. It all comes down to women having lost their freedom of choice and rights in the matter and that makes me angry. That should make these so called feminists angry, not seeing someone in hijab

Yes, some women in the comments actually said seeing a woman in hijab makes them angry. Like that isn't because it's going against your feminist beliefs, it's just because you're Islamophobic.

Anyway I made a comment about it and it got deleted, then when I tried to make a post instead, I got banned from the subreddit lmao so much for women supporting women

But to all my ladies who support each other no matter what, and have each other's backs, I see y'all, and I have so much love for y'all

Also for people who say you cant be a hijabi and a feminist, fuck them. You do you sis

1.5 million Muslims make up 15% of the population of London. Why would you import that many people who have no plans of supporting western civilization? It’s utterly insane.
