Re: The far-Right leader in a Sikh headscarf and a very disturbing anti-Muslim allian
One, no one expects Muslims to ask for forgiveness. You’re sidelining this discussion by debating in irrelevant extremes. Two, you say you don’t condone it, but do you vocally condemn it? With the same zeal you point out Western sins? You can’t be neutral on a moving train. Silence is complicity. As a passionate Muslim activist, the world is looking to you to vocally and unequivocally denounce these things, precisely because the fanatic minority has hijacked the narrative. People want to know who this allegedly moderate, peace-loving, tolerant majority is. Tell them.
With a little media attention, they usually are. The US soldier convicted of raping a 14 year old Iraqi girl was given 100 yrs. Generally speaking, the rule of law is better upheld in Western justice systems because the framework for it exists, and the public holds the courts accountable. If you really want to play the comparison game, let’s do it. Women are sexually abused everywhere by insiders and outsiders, female soldiers are raped in their own barracks in every military - but where is a woman more likely to get heard? In Pakistan or the godless West?
Post a thread about why a woman who is raped in Pakistan is accused of fornication/adultery. Ask people why the Hudood Ordinances still exist. You’ll get crickets. I say go where the silence is, don’t preach to the choir with these crowd-pleasing tirades against the kufr West. They’re great but aplenty.
