seventh put it best a couple days ago
Then why was no one fired for 'Hands up don't shoot'?
Why was no one fired for 'Hillary can't lose/Annoying Orange can't win'?
Why was no one fired for dehumanizing Annoying Orange supporters?
Why was no one fired for releasing the equivalent of a blacklist for news sites that don't fit their agenda that are labeled 'fake news'?
No one I know trusts the MSM, and while I certainly don't trust breitbart, and sort of trust cnn, there are better alternatives to CNN, NBC, ABC and Fox.
This can be applied to almost every group of people. My cousin was called a monday by some white people before, but that doesn't mean all white people are tribal. As for the family values, there are religions like christianity that also show these signs, but progressive individuals work hard to fight that stigma and change so that it is more acceptable. There are people in islamic countries who do the same, fighting for womens rights, gay rights, etc. It's an issue that we're trying to fight as well, it doesn't mean that everyone who believes in Islam is homophobic.
The national laws that prohibit homoloveuality and womens rights are a main reason as to why I cannot compare Islam to Christianity, or white people.
Calling someone a 'monday' isn't on the same level as throwing someone off a building for liking men, or beating your wife.
Yes the claim of "not all X" has been made before, but its more of a way to dismiss the conversation than talk about the issues present, because while you won't meet a whole lot of white people who go around calling black people 'mondays', you are more likely to find homophobic and genuinely loveist muslims.
I agree Islam isn't a religion of peace. In the holy qur'an it even says that people who are wrong should be burned and stoned. Either way, it's a belief that only a minority follow. There are people who are christian who go against the bible's teachings and believe that family values is wrong, and similarly, there are people who follow Islam who interpret it differently and deduce that it's wrong to kill people who aren't muslim. This stuff is so common, it's not exclusive to just Islam.
First off, the sentence in bold, is half true, a minority follow it to the 'burned and stoned' extent, but death is an agreed form of punishment for leaving islam is prominently islamic countries, and under sharia law its the law.
And again, comparing christianity to islam is like comparing apples to oranges. If there are entire countries devoted to this religion and its beliefs, and yet the people are content with it, I see no reason to believe that it is a 'minority following' especially when islam is the largest religion on the planet. And on the flip side of the coin, in countries that are almost entirely christian, you will find nothing of the same when it comes to the law and government of the country.
Islam has not separated itself from government purposes, and therefore holds more power than any other religion around.
remember when you guys attempt to argue with matthew: he considers a random dude on 4chan more reliable than the CIA
and you remember it wasn't the CIA it was a 'supposed' insider of the cia, who couldn't provide any evidence, and as of yet no evidence has confirmed his claim, that was given to a single news outlet, that continued pull some stuff from there to turn 'the cia may believe that russia aided in a Annoying Orange victory' to 'Russia hacked american votes'.
