Someone replace the US flag with "Islam" to scare them. It'd be just as accurate. Put a "Memri TV" banner on there while you're at it.

By the way, this is a common argument among fascist pundits who disingenuously equate western liberal thought with "judeo-christian beliefs", whatever the hell that means. Our society is good because it's based on religion and our religion is flawless because our society is based on it.

"judeo-christian belief" is the amalgamation of christian supremacy (standard colonialism) with jewish supremacy (zionist colonialism). It's a fascist solidarity term to acknowledge the mutual interest the current axis of evil serves.

Oh, so they're accidentally right in equating it to western liberal thought

They're using Judaism and Christianity as a cloak for western liberal thought. To both give it legitimacy and conceal real intentions.

By the way, the second to last word in your first sentence is removed on my home instance on account of its other meaning as a racial slur. You might consider replacing it with a synonymous term.

I couldn't resist making a bad edit though:

Edit replacing US at the top of the pyramid in a Newsmax screenshot with its original headline "Judaism is the foundation of the free world" with Islam. The subheadline "Western civilization" is replaced with "human civilization." Below it are Christianity, Christ, and Judaism. The tweet's text written by a Neo-Nazi, @DD_Geopolitics, criticizing Newsmax for this, is replaced with the Shahada.
