The Islam Thread

So as to not make it personal let’s say we’re talking about the Burmese.

It’s easy for hammerheads to expect tuna to be generous with the olive branch.

Is this in bounds or out of bounds because that’s not what I’m saying.

well what are you saying then, without resorting to rhetoric or bad hammerhead analogies

It’s my opinion that you’re a sincere liberal that believes in tolerance and the open exchange of ideas. I also think it carries more clout because you actually have something just recently gained and more vulnerable to loss.

I don’t think it’s a winning strategy and it may very well be a losing strategy by design. Still I think it’s how you roll.

However, morally I think it’s the safest position because it comes with the least cost to your conscience.

I think you’re like a 1968 style American liberal but I do not think you dick ride American liberalism. That type of liberalism comes from Europe. It’s yours.

I’m a bigot and I understand that you don’t want my support because it comes at the expense of others. Still, I’ve always supported queer rights and even if the current take is I’m just a boomer who can’t even do that right anymore I know my history and I know the personality type that wasn’t there before it became the norm and when AIDS was raging and all the hate and blame that came along with that. Even if I’m written out of the story I’m still ride or die.

Prosciutto is overrated af to me.

I worked at a deli for 2 or so years and I tried virtually all the expensive **** in there. I couldn't believe that **** was $11 a pound. Way too salty imo.

Roll it up with an asparagus and some goat cheese.

I know that but my liberalism isn't any different from that of Bat or Frown.

And again, I'm not tolerant towards muslims because it's morally safe. It's a genuine conviction. Hating millions of people just because they're part of a religion, even though they're all interpreting in different ways and most of them wouldn't be violent towards me and let me live my life is not a winning strategy. I lived in a neigbourhood with moslty muslims in Amsterdam and I walked around hand in hand with my girlfriend; nobody gave a ****.
I've said this before about the free exchange of ideas: it is a good thing, it has led to progress throughout all of history. Liberating ideas will spread, but no European country is going to be like 'gee let's do away with our laws of freedom and have ourselves a religious fundamentalist state'

see that's where you're wrong, there's no such thing as too salty
(except in the metaphorical sense)

Nah man it's just like how we never stopped hating the Irish and the Italians. No change is possible ever.
