mature enough
Daily reminder that liberals, who are the most immature creatures in human history, literally believe that being a brainwashed little tool who supports fascism is the “mature” thing to do. If you watch The West Wing you need reeducation
I have to admit, a few years ago I never would have expected Reddit to hate Muslims (marginally) less than the Chinese.
wow reddit really has been mask off huh, thank god I went to chapo and never looked back
“one carton of prophet Muhammad and now macron is the devil” like it IS THEIR FUCKING RELIGION IT WAS DONE TO PISS THEM OFF AND DISRESPECT A MAIN DOCTRINE OF THEIR RELIGION LIKE IT IS THE ONLY REASON TO DO
I don’t think that’s the thing we should criticise right now. Religion is shit anyway and nobody should be beheaded for drawing a cartoon. Not even Ben Garrison.
However, we should be criticising the material conditions minorities endured in France for the last 100 years. There are people in France who have been lured/pressured from their colonised home countries and who are still considered less than the french. Many terror attacks were carried out by young french people who were turned towards Islam because they were never given any other chance. That hasn’t changed although it would be the best prevention against future killing sprees.
Also the I think you’re right about how the cartoons were published to provoke that exact reaction, so brown people could successfully be painted as savages.
like i am not defending violence i just don’t think that this kinda of display helps solve the fucking problem it just adds more fuel like especially it being literally the head of state of france doing it like there is no real gain in this, and like i am an atheist my position on this like personally WHY WOULD I CARE like it such a non issue like you could just not draw muhammad because you know it is disrepectful and if you are doing it still is because you want to be disrespectful like it really does not affect anyone’s life in the same way that catholics believing in saint does not change anyone’s life or hindu not eating cows like why would i care about these things like i don’t know believe whatever this is such a small thing our planet is going to fucking die in a dumb preventable disaster we refuse to engage and we are having to talk about this
Breaking religious taboos is actually unironically fine, and pissing off religious people is cool. Do you think the protests against Life Of Brian were in the right too? Should we condemn any place that exhibits piss christ? Because I literally do not see the difference between these things.
like i am really trying to think why the head of state of france disrepecting a whole religion would be good in any way and be considered breaking religious taboos because it kinda is not his religion is it but i don’t know like giving space to famously not weird about islam country france on doing this kinda shit is kinda not a good idea i guess and on the life of brian yeah i don’t remember thatcher being in the movie so kinda weird comparison
Disrespecting the most oppressed group of people in the world to own religion. Yeah, it’s edgy time.
Show me where Christians are being persecuted across the planet with constant negative propaganda and literally murdered on a daily basis and we can talk about the effects of disrespecting Christianity.
Disrespecting the most oppressed group of people in the world
First off: Lol. French muslims are oppressed, but we literally have Romani in the same country, and outside of France we have groups experiencing genocide.
Secondly, their level of persecution isirrelevant to this discussion. The religious sentiments of muslims are not sacrosanct, and they can be subjected to the exact same level of criticism and ridicule as any other religion. Islam is not special in thsi regard. The onyl thing special about this is that muslims get more upset by it, which is precisely why it is fine to keep making muhammad cartoons. The entire point of transgressive art is that it transgresses, and challenges ideas about ourselves and what we consider important and not subject to challenge. The taboos of muslims are just as open to challenge as the taboos of anyone else.
No it’s actually more basic than that
It’s the same as liberalism effectively moving people to nihilism
~
Nothing, nothing has become a pillar of belief in the west
Similarly, if you are a Muslim, you should give to those less for fortunate, you should want to provide people with access to education, healthcare, housing etc.
But what do you get? You get garbage politics, corruption and hate mongering
~
It’s like the brain dead liberalism on the west that in truth only cares about the wealthy and placates labour with the dizzying drug of gradualism
~
So what is left really, besides nihilism? It’s either that or eating the rich

So when an opportunity for outrage against the ‘team’ occurs it riles people up
They have someone to blame for everything wrong in the world
And yea, fuck Macron, mostly for being a neolib and going further right
But fuck the dictators and authoritarians of the north Africa, the middle east through to the south china sea who have repeatedly failed to deliver
I’ll go one further, I’m originally from South Africa
The Muslims there like apartheid, they like being segregated from the rest of society
~
Watch ‘The Message’ and cry crocodile tears when Bilal gets tortured and then not bother paying the maid a living wage
The level of disconnect is just bizarre and it took me years to get how fucked my early life was
Oh no another South African poster, time to delete my account before I get doxxed.

That’s a joke, I’m just terrible at posting
But on a serious note the situation around domestic workers/maids is extremely messed up, they are legally excluded from worker protections other workers get, and that law is only changing now. They pretty much get treated horribly, and it makes me so angry, words can’t really describe it.
So Reddit hates Muslims again, but now because they are ungrateful for them yelling about China?
