    I’m going to write something unpopular, and I’m not even sure I agree with it, but it’s a 9gag PTSD…

    Although I wish Reddit will soon rot and I’m an atheist, we all know who the people focused on criticizing only Islam are. And we all know what their focus on this religion tries to hide…

    I prefer the company of people who are either neutral about religion or hates them all equally.

      As a gay men, I am very anti Islam and I dont care what people think of me. Sure, im anti any religion, but Islam actively persecutes gay men and countries with a majority of Islam have death penalty on gay men. People coming to west Europe from Islamic countries are bringing their homophobic thinking and unfortunately there has been several attacks from Islamic people where members of the lgbt community have ended in the hospital with broken bones.

      No religion is good but Islam is a cancer for LGBT people

      Although I wish Reddit will soon rot and I’m an atheist, we all know who the people focused on criticizing only Islam are.

      A large number of them are former muslims who managed to escape from oppressive islamic regimes, and are now outspoken activists against an evil ideology.

      I prefer the company of people who are either neutral about religion or hates them all equally.

      That’s pretty stupid on your part either way. Neutrality towards religion is simply complicity. “Hating them all equally” is absurd and simple-minded, as every religion differs wildly in the level of harm it does. Islam and christianity are objectively the most harmful religions in existence today, and to focus your disdain on the one that you have the most experience with or poses the biggest threat to you is entirely reasonable.

        Didn’t read past the second line, but fyi, I know there are former muslims. My mom is one of them. I should have written more carefully “except former muslims, obviously”.

        The overwhelming majority of Islam focused critics, at least in western countries ? Culturo-fascists and white supremacists.

    Reddit has been overtly censoring posts for a long, long time now. It’s no surprise whatsoever. The platform is basically just ads and bots at this point, very similar to Facebook.

    It always makes me chuckle when one religion decides to criticize another religion.

    All of your belief systems are nonsense.

    It’s dying, so glad we have better options anyways such as lemmy. Greed and power got to it.
