you didnt even read the post did you lmao

to me this means, "As long as I can avoid the label so I can adhere to social norms and recruit for fascists/still look good, etc."

If that's what that statement to you, you need to study critical thinking..
Critical thinking is the objective analysis of facts to form a judgment.

muslim = religion. fact.
racism = bias against race = fact

I'll assume you can't grasp the irony of presuming a stance of critical thinking and rationality, and yet failing to understand the obvious racialization of Islam by Western states. You can't move beyond the definitions you set for yourself.

"Islam isn't a race so it isn't racism, derp."

The caricature of Islam takes on a racialized form. Namely, some kind of 'Arab Man'.

Your ignorance aside, what's your point? That it's ok to be discriminatory against muslims because they aren't a race? Is that what "freeing your mind" means to you? That you hate muslims? And we're supposed to respect that position because you bastardize Mark Twain?

Mark Twain, the anti-capitalist, the abolitionist, the supporter of women's rights.

Who are the oppressors? The few: the king, the capitalist and a handful of other overseers and superintendents. Who are the oppressed? The many: the nations of the earth; the valuable personages; the workers; they that make the bread that the soft-handed and idle eat.”

I'm sure he'd have much to disagree with your banality and pedantic attempts at 'critical thinking'.

That it's ok to be discriminatory against muslims because they aren't a race?

...I dunno, I'll call me ex - she was muslim and black...

You can't move beyond the definitions you set for yourself.

How does my definitions fit into the above statement?
How many non christian girlfriends have you had, for example?
(My current one is Buddhist)

I have lived (as a minority) in foreign lands, for most of my adult life...

...your attempt to put me in a box shows just how limited your own mind is...

more shitty pics and pedantry...

I don't even know what point you're trying to make?

I don't care about your gross sex-life.

You didn't actually address any of my arguments. Islamaphobia is often an expression of racism. Islam is racialized in Western countries.

...just....ewww

I don't care about your gross sex-life.

Why would you associate my loving personal relationships with a 'gross sex life'?
You seem very boxed in with your viewpoint of the world, sir.
Have you not traveled very much?

The disturbing correlations between 'sex' and 'gross' in interesting.
...Why do you associate sex with 'gross'?

You didn't actually address any of my arguments. Islamaphobia is often an expression of racism. Islam is racialized in Western countries.

If you find it is often an expression of racism, then I would suggest finding friends with a higher IQ than 90, or stop listening to reactionary media..
I know of no one that makes that connection. It's retard logic.
You can't fix stupid.

Islam is racialized in Western countries.

The politicians make it like that. Only the brain dead sheep listen to politicians. (or the disingenuous trying to cause divisions.)
I avoid both.

10/10 argument
