You know I bet that if I replaced the word Islam with Christianity this post would have more upvotes.
Because historic context matters. (Get ready for some real life ambiguity) Imagine a ban on hijabs in a arabic country VS one in say, US or germany.
I agree religion should generally be discarded. In that sense anti Islam acts can be progressive.
Global power structures (post-colonialism, empirialism) are reproduced using islamophobia. In that sense anti islam acts (or jokes) can be oppressive.
Something is true or not depending on it if it corresponds with the real world. Not based on historical injustices.
Criminals can be victims, victims can be criminals. Two unrelated peices of information.
So yeah it sucks what happened to the Arabs. That doesn't mean Islam is not to be criticized.
You would be wrong. Blanket generalizations like that are childish and immature at best.
You are a mod. Why not do something about the repeated locked posts touching on Islam? Either that or just rename this place "anti-christianity" to make it appropriate.
Wanna bet it ends up removed?
It does seem to break a couple of the sub’s rules…
By who, it was a freaking mod that posted it
