As an exmuslim, I'm disappointed in this comment section.
islam is NOT your friend. Simping for it just shows that you're either ignorant or you're hypocrite with not prinicples. islam, as an ideology is so unbelievably vile that it's a very strong contender for being the worst ideology in history. Pedophilia, sex slavery, rape, misogyny, wife beatings, normal slavery, genocide, terrorism, homophobia, violent colonialism, apartheid governance, censorship, intentional discrimination and hatred, and barbaric capital punishment are all explicitly allowed and encouraged in the islamic scriptures.
This is not just me making things up, I can literally show you either verses from the quran, sahih hadiths, or both explicitly allow and encourage every single one of these. I'm against bigotry and bigots, however, I am also against those who cover for them. In this case, islam is just as bigoted, if not more bigoted, than the person in the post, and the people covering for islam aren't any better. I will always stand tall and proud on the side of people who exercise their right to free speech to criticize islam, and expose the religion for what it is, despite the dangers of doing so.
I agree with you and would expand that to cover most major religions, particularly the abrahamic ones.
I also think bigotry is evil because it's blind hatred of anyone belonging to a group. There are decent enough people that are Muslims, Christians, and Jews. Admittedly most don't closely follow their religion (particularly the fucked up parts) -- but they still identify as such.
There's a difference between attacking a belief system and attacking huge, diverse groups of people. Somehow I don't think Ultra Nuclear's intent was the former.
so the same as every other abrahamic religion?
Sounds like Christianity to me! Judging by the bible that I read 4 times. Literally my second most read book.
I find it very frustrating how islam, and only islam, gets excused for all the shit it has. There will always be someone rushing in to defend it with type of pointless nonsense. islam is bad on its own merits, you don't need to defend on meaningless generalizations. Just because other religions have their own shitty verses that does NOT excuse, justify, or negate what's in islam. People can and should criticize it on its own for what it is.
Thank you for your perspective, I feel like I hear a lot about exMormon and exCatholic but not much about exIslam
