> [@AshenLady](#): > > No one else uses their religion as an excuse for violence, nor would it be tolerated, why so does Islam get a pass? People have all kinds of vendettas, but they don’t use their religion to give it credence, only Islam does. Issues and problems have driven people to violence, but only Muslims do so, as an excuse to incite violence. No one else? See, there’s this thing called the internet, where you can look up facts and stuff. No shortage of terrorists motivated by Islam, Christianity, Judaism, Hinduism, and various others. Pretty much everyone except the Jains. You are exactly the sort of bigoted asshole that generations of Jews have despised, and fought. Congratulations. ---

Just so we’re clear here, the history of a anti-Jewish racism and/or violence is something that you think happened “possibly with good reason”. Not like those crazy fuckers who think that Jews are wealthy. ---

You guys know my Congressman, Kieth Ellison? From Minnesota? A Muslim. From Minnesota. And I mean, from Minnesota, having far more in common with Garrison Keillor than with Saladin. Brownish skin, but American cheese on white with mayo. All the seething charisma of Walter Mondale, the steely eyed fanaticism of Hubert Humphrey. I try to see him as agent of some dark conspiracy, and I break into giggles. ---

Just picture him as someone who might be unable to tell Saudi Arabia’s goals from America’s goals and/or someone who might betray America to Islamic interests just like an International Communist during the cold war. The rest should come naturally to you. ---
