      And yet they specifically reference Allah. And elsewhere in the comment section they try and say Allah is different from the Judeo-Christian “God”.

        You’re allowed to use a specific example to make a general point.

          Funny how that seems to happen with minorities and Islam but not white people.

            You’re the only person concerned about race here. Stop being racist.

              That’s literally a line used against people protesting for minority rights. It’s not racist to call out problematic stuff.

                  Oh right, because you know me? I haven’t said a damn thing about women’s rights but to demonstrate how easy it is to lay fears of bigotry to rest… I believe all humans are created equal and should be treated equally. I also believe using extremists to paint entire groups is bigotry.

                  See? Super easy. Instead y’all seem to be going all in on Islamophobia.

            Literally nobody mentioned race.

            And aside from that, you’re wrong anyway. People criticise “white” religious beliefs too. A lot.

            Like, you’ve never heard people hating on the catholic church and the people who support it for turning a blind eye to sex abuse scandals? Seriously?

            Or about the religious Christian crazies in the US? You’ve never heard about that?

            Or the cult that is Scientology? Is that something you’re unfamiliar with?

            Fuck off with this trying to frame criticising a religion or pointing out its harmful effects as being racial bigotry.

            It’s not racism, and you know it isn’t. You’re just indirectly supporting actual bigotry that Islam pushes against women, LGBT people, and non-believers.

              Yes. Specific things about Christianity are complained about. That doesn’t mean bigots aren’t out there spreading islamophobia.

              Oh look an example of someone using an extremist group to paint all Muslims. And trying to cover it with the weird religions in there once.

              And if you think race is the only kind of bigotry going, I have a bridge to sell you.

                Everything is complained about. More widely than Islam, too.

                That doesn’t mean bigots aren’t out there spreading islamophobia.

                Who said they weren’t? This is a complete strawman. I never said nobody hates Muslims, I said complaining about Islam is not bigotry, and you bringing race into this and playing the “if you criticise this you’re a RACIST” is pathetic.

                And if you think race is the only kind of bigotry going, I have a bridge to sell you.

                Never said that. That’s another strawman.

                I think you’ll find I explicitly mentioned homophobia, misogyny, and hatred of infidels in my comment. All things absolutely rife in Islam. And yet, here you are indirectly condoning those viewpoints.

                I’m a bisexual Indian immigrant. I’m very, very well aware of bigotry. And complaining about backwards hateful religious rhetoric isn’t bigotry.

                What a disgusting bigot you are. Throwing groups that are treated as subhuman by Islamic institutions under the bus just so you can have some falsified moral high ground by calling everybody who doesn’t like Islamic extremism a racist.

              Lmao. I’m sorry, your argument is you’re not religious extremist, you’re just a racist?

              Oh God, that’s the laugh I needed.

              Especially because there’s still 10-20 percent depending on your country. And you’re just falling into the propaganda created by the extremists among them.

                No, 10-20% are religious but those coincide with dumb ppl who make up 30-40% of nay population and include racist AND ZIONISTS and extreme leftist etc.

        But the Muslim, Christian, and Jewish god is the same deity. So “Allah” refers to the god of all 3 religions.
