    I think it’s fine to be pissed off about any religion, especially if it’s bringing harm and unrest to a community/culture. Historically kind of religion’s thing…

    But the second anyone brings ethnicity into it…

      Well with Islam and ethnicity, they’re very closely tied together to a point that criticism of Islam is often perceived as racism. That’s a big problem.

        It’s a lie. Just like being anti Zionist is racist. It’s not. Can happily critisize problematic teachings of religious doctrines while having zero problems with a person of that race who also disagrees with the doctrine.

          What race? If you criticize a religion in a way that sounds like you’re attacking a particular race, you’re either being speaking from a place of racism, or you need to seriously rethink the way you’re expressing your criticism.
