    LOL, yes, you got an ad hominem attack in response to blatant bigotry. Comparing all Muslims to white supremacists doesn’t warrent debate, but it does deserve ridicule and contempt. You also ignored a bunch of facts that contradicted your wildly inaccurate statements on who was promoting identity politics, which factions of the party were actually standing up to billionaires, and how successful the Sanders/AOC tour is in middle America, but those challenged your worldview, so you couldn’t acknowledge them. Anyway, keep punching at the left-wing of the party while the Democrats try to run the same strategy put Donald Trump in the Whitehouse twice. I’m sure you’ll change the world by losing every election!

        American Muslims, in line with general public attitudes in the United States, have become much more accepting of homosexuality over recent years…In a July 2017 poll, Muslims who say homosexuality should be accepted by society clearly outnumber those who say it should be discouraged (52% versus 33%), a level of acceptance similar to American Protestants (52% in 2016).

        So weird that you distinguish between Christians and Christian fundamentalists but assume all Muslims are fundamentalists. It’s almost like you have some sort of bias or prejudice against Muslims. It’s like you’re a person who has bigoted views. Wonder if there’s a name for that?

          Nope you’re right. The Muslim world just wants to get along with everyone else. Their prophet Mohammed Was a person of peace. He wasn’t warlord who married 6 yo girls . The all Muslim countries are safe for queer folk and women have the same rights as men. I’m so sorry everyone I’ve been wrong I am just an ignorant person and I’m very sorry. The Islamic world 1.8 billion strong doesn’t have any extremists in its fold and has never ever done anything violent ever. I can only pray to Allah that my comments, which are completely genuine and true, don’t get taken down again by the moderators

            Christian extremists in this country have rolled back a women’s right to an abortion and are now working on eliminating no-fault divorce, but hey, you do you, bigot.

              Whenever I see people defending one religion to disparage another I just see

              “Constipation is better than diarrhea”

              Can I have neither?

              I agree. Christian evangelicals are extremists who want to control everything. They are shitty people. I have no problem saying that Your own personal stance against me is simply virtue signaling, but you do you. Your unwillingness to acknowledge that the Muslim world doesn’t care about you or anyone that disagrees with their doctrines is ignorant and cowardly. Religion is there to control all of us and that includes the Islamic world
