Repeating this. I’m Muslim. I don’t feel attacked when people condemn Taliban b/c Taliban do not rep Muslims & I proudly take the lead in condemning Taliban terror.

If you’re MAGA white & feel personally attacked when we condemn white supremacy terror—you’re telling on yourself.

@QasimRashid

Remember when Senator Tommy Tuberville tried to white wash (heh) the ideology of white nationalists?

I ‘member.

Sen. Tuberville Claims A ‘White Nationalist’ Is Not Necessarily Racist

Tuberville doubled down on controversial remarks he made in May about white nationalists serving in the military.

@Acronymesis @QasimRashid thats some wild mental gymnastics.

@QasimRashid This ought to be pretty self-evident, right?

So strange that white supremacists want to snitch on themselves like that.

@QasimRashid
Despite being part of far right MO and written in literal manuals for decades - the media leans heavily on the "lone wolf" crutch when the a crime is committed by a white European/North American who comes a Christian culture.
@QasimRashid what an unfortunate thread that follows. The original post nails the issue.
@QasimRashid I've never been bothered or chastised by Muslim folks, on pseudo Christans.
@QasimRashid I know you already know this but really, that's because no one who's MAGA isn't motivated *by* the will to cause terror in others in the *first* place. They feel attacked because every last one of them would do it, if they could get away with it.

@QasimRashid

The MAGA group are a right bunch of cunts

@QasimRashid I am not able to understand why the Taliban leadership are so willing to give up on 1/2 their intellectual capital by so many restrictions on women. What part of their beliefs as Muslims has led them to this position? Is it simply power? I fear we are starting to see this in the more rabid Christian nationalists, as well.
@QasimRashid Not all Republicans are racist. But racists love to vote Republican.

@QasimRashid

I believe Taliban have the right to live the way the Afghan want , not what the west want.

we should not force our ideas on them.

@asiddieg @QasimRashid

It's questionable if many of the people living under the Taliban want to live the way the Taliban want them to live.

Unfortunately, short of external military intervention, it's unlikely that the Taliban will cease being the rulers of Afghanistan anytime in the near future.

@asiddieg you volunteering to live by their rules?
I'd bet not.
Please elucidate.

@oldmeanroy

you mean living in old style culture where the man is the the man of the house and marriage is easy, women are women and can be shy and obedient, the law is made by the creator of the earth and the sky , there is no complexity in life or technology? I will say yes.

@asiddieg "women are women and can be shy and obedient"
Says everything anyone needs to know about you. You and the Taliban have a lot in common.
Is that how you want your mother treated?
You should consider moving there, you'd be far more comfortable there than in countries where women are granted the same rights as men. Though even in the west that's more a goal than an achievement.
@asiddieg I am going to just go ahead and block you because I didn't join Mastodon to argue with people who believe we should go back to the middle ages.
You strike me as a poorly educated person who indeed should move to and stay in Afghanistan where the ignorant rule.
@QasimRashid you know what you see when someone is palling around with 2 Nazis?
3 Nazis.
@QasimRashid I'm white and I'm atheist and this makes more sense to me than anything I've read on the interweb machine for a long time...🤘
@QasimRashid What do you do with an unrepentant idiot on a thread? Simple, you mute the idiot and suddenly the thread is an oasis of insight and wisdom. Hit the mute button, enjoy life.
@QasimRashid I'm a white and nerdy, non-muslim european. And Jihadist. And I do hope we are brothers in arms. At least caring for human rights gives a hint we aren't on opposite sides.
@QasimRashid Totally agree. "White" and "White supremacist" are two completely different things.
@QasimRashid
Wow. 4 people who needed blocking on this one post. Great job outing the haters!
@QasimRashid Prejudice is a wide-sweeping net. Politics is replete with it. Don't blame all on all members of a party or organization. I've seen it on full display both on the Right and the Left. Also, let go of the notion that the only solution to societal ills comes from the legislatures.
