Besides implying that it's okay for a European democracy to resort to Saudi standards, what would be achieved from losing your mind over Saudi bans when outrage won't do shit to make it change? Some people like to call that virtue signalling.
Crimes committed by Muslims will be proof of a pan-Islamic plot and Islam's inherent evil. On the other hand, crimes committed by non-Muslims will merely be the acts of mentally ill lone wolves who do not represent their professed belief system at all.
The probability of someone secretly participating in homosexual acts is directly proportional to the frequency and loudness of their publicly professed disapproval and/or disgust for homosexuality.
If Donald Trump accuses an individual of malfeasance without evidence, it is almost a certainty either he or someone associated with him has in fact committed that very same malfeasance to a greater degree.

Not officially, though they, like most of the middle east, ban Christian evangelization and Christian conversion. You can be Christian, you just can't try to do a fundamental part of the Christian faith.

They also strongly prefer Muslim foriegn experts instead of non-Muslims.

Wow, this thread hasn't died yet? :eek: And Vassenor still shilling for Islam? Well, I guess I check back another day, but just a small tip for Vassenor on my way out: Why don't you travel to Saudi-Arabia, Iran, Afghanistan, Pakistan or whatever and visit some town's square, particularly after friday afternoon, when everyone is just leaving from their mosques. Then, on their way out, start telling them that you are a proud member or Team Hufflepuff or Team Sailor Moon or whatever you call yourself. (I despise that anime btw. It kills braincells.) Then see what happens. See if you're still willing to shill for them after you have survived the public hanging/beheading/stoning and/or being thrown from a building/being overrun by a tank/publicly burned alive at the stake. Come back to me and tell me you're still willing to shill for them. Here's my guess: you're not trans at all, otherwise you wouldn't be so intensely pro-Islam, coming up with countless strawmen during this thread. Perhaps you're more a (closet) muslim yourself. Otherwise, it's exactly as has been said already: it befuddles me how you constantly defend a "culture" which would destroy you without so much as a second thought.

Not really, though. Their argument depends on a couple of shoddy, unproven assumptions in order to be compelling:

1. That the exact same people who criticize Denmark's policies have never criticized Saudi Arabia's or Iran's religious authoritarianism.
2. That lack of attention towards the authoritarian policies of nations outside of our own historical region is, in an of itself, a sign of a religious or cultural double standard, rather than the result of geographical distance diminishing their relative importance due to them not directly impacting our lives in our own "turf".
3. That this alleged double standard in any way justifies the policy in and of itself.

All of these implicit assumptions are not rooted in logical thought, but on clichés and emotional manipulation.

tl;dr Unstoppable Empire of Doom is bullshitting and underestimating everyone else's grasp of logic

That you haven't bothered to read: it befuddles me that you are so intensely pro islam when you're a Team Sailor Moon as you so proudly proclaim. Funny how you came up with another strawman by calling it character assassination and you still haven't answered the question. How come you are pro Islam when they on the other hand would destroy you? (I thought I'd put it in simpler terms for you.) (Edited for typos, as I typed this on my phone.)

Friendly reminder that the Iranian government is known for being fairly accepting of trans people, and being willing to support their transitions, despite also being genocidally homophobic.

For someone who seems to have it all figured out, or at least figured out enough to angrily rant at a trans woman for disagreeing with a burqa ban, insulting her tastes in anime and accusing her of lying about her gender and faith... you sure missed the mark with at least one of your examples.

Maybe... just maybe... you are not nearly as knowledgeable as you think you are and should shut up and think for a bit? You won't be able to take your character assassination attempt back, unfortunately (and I have kept my word and taken a glorious screenshot of it for posterity), but at least you won't dig yourself into a deeper hole.

Well, when one presumes every single Muslim in the world pledged allegiance to Daesh and have a genetic compulsion to throw LGBTs off rooftops some things don't make sense.
Crimes committed by Muslims will be proof of a pan-Islamic plot and Islam's inherent evil. On the other hand, crimes committed by non-Muslims will merely be the acts of mentally ill lone wolves who do not represent their professed belief system at all.
The probability of someone secretly participating in homosexual acts is directly proportional to the frequency and loudness of their publicly professed disapproval and/or disgust for homosexuality.
If Donald Trump accuses an individual of malfeasance without evidence, it is almost a certainty either he or someone associated with him has in fact committed that very same malfeasance to a greater degree.

Because it ignores the history of imperialism by which white, capitalist countries systematically attacked and displaced indigenous populations, by slaughtering them, making them slaves, stealing their land, forcibly converting them to Christianity, suppressing their language, etc.

White people are too oppressed by the economics of imperialism, whether directly (for example, Ireland) or indirectly (through outsourcing jobs, through imperialist wars where working class Europeans die for the profits of capitalists). But white people are not oppressed based on their race.

Lastly, "white people" cannot have a coherent homeland because "white people" do not collectively share much in common. Various ethnic groups all fall under "white". What unites a Pole with a Scot isn't their need for a white homeland, but their socioeconomic conditions and their interests as members of the a international working class.




No strife between races, no peace between classes!


1) It's actually not forcing non-citizenship to non-whites. It's enforcing the natural reality of race as a part of identity.

Race isn't real. Ethnicity is real.

This is not fair! White people are truly oppressed by both international capitalism and socialism! We need a National socialism.

:roll:
Also, in case you don't know, Nazism is bad.
Kustonia wrote:3) White people share Europe, similar family values and traditions. Every racial group in the world has similar values and belief systems. Once you study Anthropology, you will understand this.

Lol white people don't share the same values, just like black people don't share the same values, etc.

Someone doesn't understand basic economics.
Novum Imperium Atlanticum wrote:Wow, this thread hasn't died yet? :eek: And Vassenor still shilling for Islam? Well, I guess I check back another day, but just a small tip for Vassenor on my way out: Why don't you travel to Saudi-Arabia, Iran, Afghanistan, Pakistan or whatever and visit some town's square, particularly after friday afternoon, when everyone is just leaving from their mosques. Then, on their way out, start telling them that you are a proud member or Team Hufflepuff or Team Sailor Moon or whatever you call yourself. (I despise that anime btw. It kills braincells.) Then see what happens. See if you're still willing to shill for them after you have survived the public hanging/beheading/stoning and/or being thrown from a building/being overrun by a tank/publicly burned alive at the stake. Come back to me and tell me you're still willing to shill for them. Here's my guess: you're not trans at all, otherwise you wouldn't be so intensely pro-Islam, coming up with countless strawmen during this thread. Perhaps you're more a (closet) muslim yourself. Otherwise, it's exactly as has been said already: it befuddles me how you constantly defend a "culture" which would destroy you without so much as a second thought.

NO U :rofl:

But seriously, Vassenor would have an easier, more productive, less expensive time learning about Al-Islam by reading the Holy Qur'an and Sunnah, going to a masjid and asking questions, and getting some Islamic books, and going to Islamic websites.

And Kustonia, here are my questions again:
1: What is the difference between an 'Islamic' and a Muslim to you?
2: Why do you think Muslims don't belong in Europe?
3: When you say "Muslims don't belong in Europe" do you mean all Muslims or just non-white Muslims?

This means we can use the word, just not in a bad way. So don't punish anyone who uses kafir.

Why is it always the LGBTQXEDGTESDFTEDGR+ who rush first to defend Islam in spite of everything when their very beliefs and ideology would be persecuted like never before if those very same extremists got into power. That unsurprisingly bogger the mind of quite a lot of people.

The enemy of my enemy is my friend.


That might be a good idea if they weren't the weak and spineless ones. Alas unfortunately for the feministas and others making a Faustian bargain, they are merely committing political suicide.

If you want to be taken seriously, maybe consider posting like a serious person. As it stands, that little zinger cost you my respect and I won't be engaging with any of your argumentation.

I'm sorry, but as an LGBT+ person, I really don't have the patience to humor you after you've made it so abundantly clear that, at best, you can't be bothered to be respectful in the most basic, easy way towards us... and, at worst, you hold my community in contempt. You've pretty much signalled that you are not approaching us in good faith and, thus, you don't deserve any good faith of our own.
