Islam/Muslim Discussion Thread ٢

[Jochizyd Republic]

You guys turn into communists when you don't get your way.

It's funny, because both us and commies would dispute that for various reasons. One of the most prominent being that liberalism and communism share basically no tenets. Just ask UMN.

A rare exception. Everyone here knows that's a rare exception.

Most communists are social liberals. No matter how much they like to decry liberalism and insist they aren't liberals. It doesn't change the facts. They are almost all social liberals.

No, most communists tend to be social authoritarians. Not unlike Shari'a-governed nations.

Jesus Christ, are you kidding me?

Short of college-age Western kids who think Marx was kewl, what basis do you have for this? Do you understand the deep hatred for liberalism in all its forms present in the most numerous communist groups?

[Arachno-Satinism]

Not seeing any rebuttal to any assertion that things do change and that many past traditions are disgusting.

Typical Liberal understanding of what I mean by Tradition.

Or maybe just typical of you.

I don't view Tradition as "anything that's old" any more than modernists thing modernist values are "anything currently being practiced."
I mean as something closer to the unity of the great ancient religions. The facets within them that value mysticism and esotericism while balancing it with the Laws of the Divine.

Knowing how liberals are, I can't expect any of you to understand that. As you all mock and harass the people that don't bow to your ultraliberal/ultramodern agenda.
Makes me really give this whole "cultural marxist" concept some thought.

No, I'm aware of the ahistorical fictions peddled by Perennialists, thanks. Not all people who advance modernism and oppose religious prejudices (homophobia this time, specifically) are liberals, either. Then again, if that's the case I'm not seeing your opposition on homosexuality being grounded in "grand ancient religions", not when aplenty religious traditions look upon homosexuality in a neutral if not approving manner, that such term is not entirely arbitrary and fictional in its own. Modern Islamism is far better grounded, and it would make more sense if you cited Islam's consistent opposition on the act of liwat as the basis for your opposition instead of appealing to some delusional universal values.

True, but it would be a mistake to say that liberal factions did not fight for communism nor influence it.

TIL it's liberals who are killing people for their views.

Fucking liberals.

Next thing you know they're going to force people into slavery... preferably sweet, hunky, male slavery. *Nod*

Social liberalism? No.

Define for me social liberalism, then.

now this I wouldn't mind.

[FelrikTheDeleted]

The liberals are commies......

I guess I'm a commie then.

[Arachno-Satinism]

And the founding fathers of Modern Liberalism in the French Revolution showed their true colors and the ultimate outcome of "progressivism".

Sorel said nothing wrong, unless you're a dirty pacifist scum.

You, know literally nothing about the Shari'ah. What it is. How it works. How many different interpretations/approaches of it are possible and so forth.

So don't comment on it.

"Of that which we do not know, we must not speak".

Similarly, you know literally nothing about social democracy and social liberalism. What it is. How it works. How many different interpretations/approaches of it are possible and so forth.

So don't comment on it.

Holding socially liberal values do not really equate to liberalism. Otherwise you will lump many communists, anarchists, syndicalists, hell even Futurists and fascists into "liberalism", and there would be bloodshed. There's a definition of liberalism, use it. It's like putting conservatives, populists, and capitalists as fascists and you know how annoying is that.

[Jochizyd Republic]

Social liberalism? No.

Define for me social liberalism, then.

I did that before for you in another thread.

But Social Liberalism is broadly the support of social egalitarianism and maximized freedoms of action including the support of libertine and materialistic lifestyles.

[Conserative Morality]

Fascists and communists have fought together before. Politics makes strange bedfellows and all that jazz. I don't think that really says anything exceptional.

[New haven america]

now this I wouldn't mind.

I really don't think anyone would.

I mean, it's wrong, but having 2-4 hunky, shirtless men catering to my every whim wouldn't be a terrible thing...

Stalin, Pol Pot, and Mao were all well-known supporters of libertine and materialistic lifestyles.

Yep, so you either don't understand modern communist movements or don't care to.

Holding liberal values doesn't make you in any way a liberal.

Haha. Okay.

So you will lump them all as Liberals?

Tankies are not usually for that kind of thing. Wouldn't exactly call them the mainstream though.

And they have their own issues.

Er, hate to break it to you, but Tankies *are* the mainstream of communism. Most people who aren't've moved on to other labels since the fall of the SovUnion. Many even before that.

I'm not convinced.
