if it sait “Captain Religion” im full on it, cause all these things aren’t special for muslims, but for religions in general
I upvoted because I thought it said capitalism, when I saw captain Islam I did a hard u turn into down vote
Why? He is right
Those are all products of capitalism, are well know in all human history and are committed by more than religious extremists. You can’t just claim this is just a issue with Islam, or lump all Islam together, all Abrahamic religions, governments and political systems including capitalism have this blood on their hands.
So no, he’s wrong by mean of wild over simplification and singling out a specific people.
Not denying this is capitalism but islam is an inherently captilastic religion. Also all of these are mebtioned in quran
All are also mentioned in the old and new testaments. Again you can’t just blanket a single religion this way with out claiming these atrocities are their and only their fault. The problem here is the post insinuates all Islamic people are pro atrocity and that is plainly untrue.
While I am generally against large organized religion, if your going to point the finger, point it those actually doing it not just the people you don’t like. And if if you wanna point at Hamas your going to have to point at Isreal, Russia, China, the US, all forms of Christianity, Jewdeism, Islam, ect ect ect
Honestly I was wrong for upvoting based on capitalism. You know who commits atrocity? Humans, end of story.
You know I bet that if I replaced the word Islam with Christianity this post would have more upvotes.
Wanna bet it ends up removed?
By who, it was a freaking mod that posted it
It does seem to break a couple of the sub’s rules…
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.
You would be wrong. Blanket generalizations like that are childish and immature at best.
