MODERATORS
There’s much more than that a pattern of systemic discrimination against Muslims in the Western world that resembles anti-Semitic conspiracy theories before the Nazi time. It’s very scary.
It’s perfectly fine to be critical of all religions. What’s not fine of course is violence from any side. However, this „religion of peace“ comment is just a very common dogwhistle used by the far right to imply that being a Muslim makes you a violent and dangerous person per se.
I think saying "religion of peace" is about as much of a dog whistle as "there's no hate like Christian love".
Obviously, not all Christians are overtly judgemental assholes, and not all Muslims are terrorists.
The ones who suffer most from Islam, are the Muslims who live under its theocracy, whether they realise it or not.
Oh, I'm far from far right. I'm actually slightly left and I mean the real left, not the American one. I don't think that being a muslim means you're a terrorist. I just don't see any other group committing so many murders in Europe. And very explicitly in the name of islam.
I don't hide from facts when they don't suit me. Prove me wrong and I'll happily publicly apologize.
Look up extreme right-wing murders, they are significantly more than islamist ones in Europe.
Brevik alone probably killed more people than all islamists (in Europe) in the same year combined.
