I understood your intent but mixing it with absurd statements is not something I agree with. Using taliban as a "sect" is simply rubbish. I know how disgustingly violent and misogynist they are. You are simply arguing bad faith if you talk as if taliban is a "sect" that Anyone outside Afghanistan can follow. It's a terror regime, not a sect.

I noticed this a lot. When speaking for muslims, people always add these dehumanising disclaimers. No one talks about israeli oppression or bizarre jewish laws when speaking up against anti-sematism. Same goes for topics like hate against indians abroad. No one adds a disclaimer except when it's about muslims. "Hey, they have the right to live. Even though they are probably bombers, don't harm them!" Tired of this bs

NYT the same guys that posted about 40 beheaded babies? Sure I'll believe it. You simply have no knowledge regarding this topic. I'm blocking you.

It's not absurd. It's reality.

Sounds like I was correct, and there were more groups than just the Taliban that were listed anyway.

I wasn't speaking "for" Muslims, I was pointing out the incongruence in Tate's behavior and how that will clash with Muslim values and possibly extremists, made aware because he's infamous.

No one talks about israeli oppression or bizarre jewish laws when speaking up against anti-sematism.

I wasn't speaking up against Islamophobia. I was talking about how a recent convert to Islam, who is a horrible terrible human trafficker and rapist, is so bad that he may trigger the ire of extremists in the religion he joined TO SCAM PEOPLE via crypto. That's why they were mentioned- as a comparison to Tate.

And I see Jewish hate often now that it's cool to hate Israel, and Indian hate to a lesser degree. Further, you bringing up Jews and Indians - they are pretty classic groups many Muslims hate. So you're entirely aware they indeed get criticism and that's probably why you specifically mention them and not Christians. Seems racist of you.

“Hey, they have the right to live. Even though they are probably bombers, don’t harm them!” Tired of this bs

I wasn't talking about rights. You're tired of BS you're inventing to be upset about, maybe stop doing that.

You're welcome to disregard the NYT link and see the other examples listed.
