If you acknowledge Muslims in the past contributed greatly to our society today, then you provide reason to believe that Muslims today can contribute greatly to society as well

2020-03-15 04:24:53 UTC

And my experience is that such people exist

2020-03-15 04:24:58 UTC

And America is greater for them

2020-03-15 04:24:58 UTC

I don't think you're listening to my points

2020-03-15 04:25:28 UTC

anecdotal evidence is irrelevant

2020-03-15 04:25:33 UTC

your points are against the religion itself

2020-03-15 04:25:36 UTC

You're points are only covering Islam as an overarching entity and not down to the individual, which is what Yuri is talking about.

2020-03-15 04:25:40 UTC

which none of us are advocating for

2020-03-15 04:25:53 UTC

my point is, that is how Muslims behave when they are the majority

2020-03-15 04:25:54 UTC

and you aren't acknowledging her points

2020-03-15 04:26:05 UTC

or well, weren't

2020-03-15 04:26:19 UTC

There's definitely more nuance there.

2020-03-15 04:26:21 UTC

yes, anecdotally individual Muslims have contributed to society, big fucking deal

2020-03-15 04:26:59 UTC

when Muslims are the majority, they make treat women as second class citizens, kill gays, etc. etc

2020-03-15 04:27:23 UTC

you guys think if we just let them come and just be nice everything will be cool

2020-03-15 04:27:25 UTC

JUST BE NICE

2020-03-15 04:27:35 UTC

lol.

2020-03-15 04:27:43 UTC

the issue is with the leadership there

2020-03-15 04:27:45 UTC

i kinda agree tbh

2020-03-15 04:28:05 UTC

if muslims are a majority there is 70% chance that there would radical islamic revolt

2020-03-15 04:28:05 UTC

This is what I joined the conversation to counter: "I don't know why I'd want to go to every single Muslim and see if they commit a crime or not when it'd just be easier to remove all of them and it'd cause like no harm to the country"

2020-03-15 04:28:18 UTC

The culture also plays a factor to be fair, which is why people coming to the US should assimilate at least to an extent.

2020-03-15 04:28:26 UTC

yes, integration is key

2020-03-15 04:28:32 UTC

Muslims should be deported

2020-03-15 04:28:33 UTC

and they do get assimilated. not opinion, based on fact.

2020-03-15 04:28:38 UTC

I'm not saying we shouldn't limit immigration, but to argue that we should get rid of what we have is reprehensible

2020-03-15 04:29:07 UTC

look at sweden

2020-03-15 04:29:13 UTC

Then quasi argued we don't need Muslim physicians when i know that we do.

2020-03-15 04:29:28 UTC

we don't need specifically Muslim physicians

2020-03-15 04:29:44 UTC

a physician can be non barbarian and be just as good

2020-03-15 04:30:33 UTC

Right, nobodies saying bring in only Muslim physicians though

2020-03-15 04:31:00 UTC

I totally endorse integration

2020-03-15 04:31:01 UTC

Just don't bar Muslims specifically because they're Muslim.

2020-03-15 04:31:13 UTC

The Muslims I have interacted with are intrgrating/have integrated

2020-03-15 04:31:33 UTC

Hell, I've sipped wine with Muslim friends ๐Ÿฅ‚

2020-03-15 04:31:34 UTC

so qwasi, you would prefer a shortage of physicians over physicians with a different set of beliefs?

2020-03-15 04:31:37 UTC

this is why anecdotal evidence is useless though

2020-03-15 04:31:51 UTC

your experience with a handful of people is meaningless

2020-03-15 04:31:55 UTC

i posted a study showing that integration is happening

2020-03-15 04:32:01 UTC

and they do get assimilated

2020-03-15 04:32:03 UTC

lol

2020-03-15 04:32:07 UTC

You're the one using inflammatory language like "barbarian"

2020-03-15 04:32:12 UTC

ok how was the study performed

2020-03-15 04:32:22 UTC

here you go

2020-03-15 04:32:24 UTC

once again

2020-03-15 04:32:26 UTC

did they ask "hey, you cool with not chopping hands off anymore bruh?"

2020-03-15 04:32:40 UTC

and the Muslim answers, "Sure, bruh, no more chopping"

2020-03-15 04:33:48 UTC

also, I'm not saying the study isn't accurate, but I trust Harvard on this particular topic about as much as I trust Yuri's anecdotal evidence

2020-03-15 04:34:18 UTC

that is to say, not a whole lot

2020-03-15 04:34:38 UTC

To be a Muslim, you technically must do/believe only five things. None of them relate to Sharia. Muslims can integrate and still be Muslims. And many do.

2020-03-15 04:35:23 UTC

Just as Christians and even Jews can take an historical view on certain elemets of Leviticus

2020-03-15 04:37:01 UTC

So again, in my experience, the concern is fanaticism not any particular religion per se. And yes, I believe we should be selective in who we permit into the country and one of the "rule out criteria" should be to keep out zealots of all flavors. But that's just moderate little scientific me.

2020-03-15 04:38:06 UTC

that study took their evidence from a multitude of different sources though. here's one: http://www.worldvaluessurvey.org/WVSDocumentationWV4.jsp this shows that societies with different majority religions do have distincitve and different values, but within the same society, the difference between the different religions are proven to be relatively much smaller.

2020-03-15 04:38:42 UTC

i provided that source as you can read through the sampling and methodology yourself if you don't believe it.

2020-03-15 04:45:57 UTC

I guess all you're really saying is that some Muslims can be good people

2020-03-15 04:46:01 UTC

sure, ok

2020-03-15 04:46:11 UTC

just like some Nazis were probably good people

2020-03-15 04:51:25 UTC

oh look, a progressive "moderate" Muslim advocating for Sharia law

2020-03-15 04:51:45 UTC

and again

2020-03-15 04:52:06 UTC

and again

2020-03-15 04:52:49 UTC

again, same user, one individual, and also this is twitter. if that's your source for valid info pls go back to the 3rd grade

2020-03-15 04:53:00 UTC

you don't know how to argue

2020-03-15 04:53:21 UTC

says the one who's reasoning is comparable to that of a 3 year old

2020-03-15 04:53:38 UTC

She's a very high profile American Muslim, most consider progressive and "woke"

2020-03-15 04:53:52 UTC

and she's advocating for Sharia

2020-03-15 04:54:13 UTC

if Yuri can bring up her anecdotal evidence why is this inadmissible?

2020-03-15 04:54:37 UTC

She gave facts and sources along with anecdotal evidence

2020-03-15 04:54:52 UTC

You're presenting us with the twitter of one high profile american muslim

2020-03-15 04:54:55 UTC

I did too, you just don't like my facts

2020-03-15 04:55:06 UTC

and what facts did you give?

2020-03-15 04:55:11 UTC

the pew study

2020-03-15 04:55:18 UTC

link it pls

2020-03-15 04:56:21 UTC

also, we're all well aware of how majority Muslim countries behave

2020-03-15 04:56:29 UTC

it's not like it's a secret

2020-03-15 04:56:48 UTC

"i guess picking up on sarcasm isn't easy for everyone. sharia isn't taking over america which is what many in the right spew"

2020-03-15 04:56:50 UTC

from the same account

2020-03-15 04:57:09 UTC

she's mocking people for being afraid of Sharia

2020-03-15 04:57:26 UTC

she is very clearly an advocate for Sharia

2020-03-15 04:57:34 UTC

that's well known

2020-03-15 04:57:34 UTC

i mean... that doesn't mean she supports it

2020-03-15 04:57:38 UTC

but

2020-03-15 04:57:39 UTC

yeah

2020-03-15 04:57:46 UTC

i can see how she may be an advocate for it

2020-03-15 04:57:46 UTC

advocating doesn't equal supporting?

2020-03-15 04:57:48 UTC

wut

2020-03-15 04:58:02 UTC

no i meant her mocking people for being afraid of sharia 'taking over'

2020-03-15 04:58:19 UTC

it's well known she's an advocate of Sharia, that's not just me saying that

2020-03-15 05:00:17 UTC

mocking people for not wanting your barbaric belief system to 'take over' is incredibly immature and only fuels the divide

2020-03-15 05:00:22 UTC

yeah there may be some muslims who believe in sharia law, but that doesn't refute the fact that on a larger scale, they get integrated and share the values of the society they are living in

2020-03-15 05:02:03 UTC

have you seen the video where Steven Crowder goes to Dearborn Michigan Muslim owned businesses, (Dearborn is the largest Muslim population in the United States), under the pretense that he is a homosexual and tries to get them to provide services to him?

2020-03-15 05:02:51 UTC

of course they refuse

2020-03-15 05:03:07 UTC

because they're so "integrated"

2020-03-15 05:05:29 UTC

okay, so i should take the word of a steven crowder video over a harvard study with multiple sources that cite their methodology.

2020-03-15 05:05:29 UTC

got it.

2020-03-15 05:06:19 UTC

No, no, keep trusting the Muslims, I don't care

2020-03-15 05:06:34 UTC

@qwasi "barbaric belief system."


Tell me, qwasi, which religion are you a part of?

2020-03-15 05:07:13 UTC

lol, they tell him to go to Kroger

2020-03-15 05:07:16 UTC

lolol

2020-03-15 05:07:16 UTC

Because right now i can tell you that Islam is not the only religion that you can accuse of such things

2020-03-15 05:08:06 UTC

sorry, your "arguments" are boring

2020-03-15 05:08:12 UTC

also, you have no roles

2020-03-15 05:08:15 UTC

and an anime pfp

2020-03-15 05:08:19 UTC

so gfy

2020-03-15 05:09:08 UTC

You have the reasoning of a 3 year old, of course my arguments are boring to you

2020-03-15 05:09:21 UTC

uh huh

2020-03-15 05:11:10 UTC

can you mock Christianity without the fear of retribution?

2020-03-15 05:11:16 UTC

Most Americans have their biases baked in pretty hard. I've said my peace and will respect that everyone in this conversation has agreed to disagree.

2020-03-15 05:11:16 UTC

what about Islam?

2020-03-15 05:11:35 UTC

what would happen if someone mocked Islam or Muhammed?

2020-03-15 05:11:39 UTC

As the crusades show, Christianity can also be accused of a lot of crimes, as the Pope and the Church have been known to be corrupt many times.

2020-03-15 05:11:49 UTC

wow, the Crusades

2020-03-15 05:11:50 UTC

lol

2020-03-15 05:12:02 UTC

And the sale of indulgences

2020-03-15 05:12:03 UTC

how old are you?

2020-03-15 05:12:22 UTC

I'd rather not reveal my age

2020-03-15 05:12:24 UTC

these are arguments often brought up by 18 yr olds

2020-03-15 05:12:39 UTC

well, that's a decent step ahead of you then

2020-03-15 05:12:48 UTC

wow, you got me

2020-03-15 05:13:41 UTC

Christians themselves say that they are subject to persecution

2020-03-15 05:14:02 UTC

^^

2020-03-15 05:14:43 UTC

So yes, there is a lot of backlash against mocking Christians

2020-03-15 05:14:59 UTC

like what?

2020-03-15 05:15:58 UTC

Like having a Fatwa placed on your head like Salman Rushdie did?

2020-03-15 05:16:03 UTC

that kind of backlash?

2020-03-15 05:17:35 UTC

or getting shot at for drawing Jesus?

2020-03-15 05:17:47 UTC

yeah, I don't think so

2020-03-15 05:18:59 UTC

maybe you mean someone gets on Twitter and says, "Hey, don't talk mean about Jesus!"

2020-03-15 05:20:08 UTC

If you can't see the actions of our own President and his followers. The bullying that is now going on of those who advocate for our First Amendment right to be free of state-supported religion. Then I got nothing for you.

2020-03-15 05:20:36 UTC

say what?

2020-03-15 05:20:45 UTC

what does that have to do with what I just said

2020-03-15 05:20:58 UTC

you claimed there is backlash against mocking Christianity

2020-03-15 05:21:03 UTC

Yes

2020-03-15 05:21:21 UTC

is it even REMOTELY comparable to the backlash a person faces for mocking Islam?

2020-03-15 05:21:35 UTC

Yes

2020-03-15 05:21:38 UTC

lol

2020-03-15 05:21:43 UTC

you're lost

2020-03-15 05:22:04 UTC

i know you probably have good intentions

2020-03-15 05:22:29 UTC

but political correctness has warped your mind

2020-03-15 05:22:31 UTC

In communities people who stand out against a majority fundamentalist Christian community can be bullied horribly

2020-03-15 05:22:40 UTC

give me an example

2020-03-15 05:23:22 UTC

That's not really a bad thing tbh

2020-03-15 05:23:32 UTC

what isn't?

2020-03-15 05:24:50 UTC

I'm going to bed. If qwasi wants to consider that to be me folding, he's welcome to. I'm tired and I have more work to do. We're going seven days a week now. Fun times with Corona-chan.

2020-03-15 05:24:57 UTC

id say islamophobia faces more backlash as it is more common.

2020-03-15 05:25:21 UTC

what is Corona-chan?

2020-03-15 05:25:29 UTC

a bot for corona stats

2020-03-15 05:25:34 UTC

covid-19 clearly

2020-03-15 05:25:45 UTC

its a bot for corona stats @ashnaa

Shaming people

2020-03-15 05:25:50 UTC

2020-03-15 05:25:55 UTC

no its covid

2020-03-15 05:26:00 UTC

Kicking people out of society for religious reasons @qwasi

you're a cultured doctor, respect @DrYuriMom

2020-03-15 05:26:19 UTC

meme lord nice

2020-03-15 05:27:25 UTC

Hey, if we can't chan-chan anything and everything, life isn't worth living

2020-03-15 05:27:52 UTC

@Deleted User the problem is, the woke zombie horde will happily let all these people in that fucking hate us so they can feel morally superior, then when the people that hate us outnumber us, they'll unleash the 1500s on us

2020-03-15 05:28:18 UTC

That's true

2020-03-15 05:28:48 UTC

this is why women should NEVER be in charge of defending ANYTHING

2020-03-15 05:29:08 UTC

they'd willfully give it all up because they just wanna be nice

2020-03-15 05:29:48 UTC

they have a worldview that is partly based in reality, but mostly based in a fantasy world

2020-03-15 05:30:10 UTC

G'night folks. I'm going to go dream of cute anime virus girls. beats the hell out of the reality...

2020-03-15 05:30:19 UTC

SEE!!

2020-03-15 05:30:21 UTC

lol

2020-03-15 05:31:52 UTC

I think it's because guys always go out of their way to be nice to females because they want to fuck them

2020-03-15 05:32:00 UTC

so women just think everyone is nice

2020-03-15 05:32:02 UTC

lol

2020-03-15 05:48:54 UTC

hahahahahha you're just jealous

2020-03-15 05:49:09 UTC

๐Ÿ˜ญ making me cry w that assumption

2020-03-15 05:49:13 UTC

lololol

2020-03-15 05:49:15 UTC

based on what I've heard from this guy he really isn't lol

2020-03-15 05:49:32 UTC

yea im just being an emotional woman

2020-03-15 05:49:33 UTC

lol

2020-03-15 05:49:49 UTC

Kinda redundant tbh

2020-03-15 05:54:04 UTC

lol

2020-03-15 05:54:13 UTC

you could have just said woman

2020-03-15 05:54:29 UTC

^

2020-03-15 05:55:28 UTC

it isn't that women *never* use logic, it's just that emotions rule the day with you guys

2020-03-15 05:58:43 UTC

political correctness works especially well on females

2020-03-15 06:02:39 UTC

lmaooo

2020-03-15 09:56:40 UTC

allah

2020-03-15 11:42:29 UTC

uh

2020-03-15 11:42:58 UTC

okeh

2020-03-15 15:31:07 UTC

Just because women are more influenced by their emotions doesn't mean they shouldn't be able to be in charge of defending anything? What. It is true, but it's miniscule to the point where it doesn't make sense to be weaponized. For instance, there were plenty of warrior queens in human history that literally fought on the battlefield. You're acting like they aren't able have the same perspective as you. ๐Ÿ˜ฌ

2020-03-15 15:40:19 UTC

Wait let me also bring a point up. Women are physically by nature weaker then men, but do you not see them participate in sports? You don't make any sense.

2020-03-15 15:42:01 UTC

I mean, are the women in this server crying over what you said right now? ๐Ÿ™„

2020-03-15 15:42:11 UTC

... Crickets.

2020-03-15 16:07:06 UTC

I mean youre responding to something said 10 hours ago maybe it shouldnt be that suprising to wait for a response

2020-03-15 16:07:21 UTC

Also this should probably go in <#513098563924918273>

2020-03-15 16:59:19 UTC

Women are just easier targets for mass propaganda and are more vulnerable to things such as social stigma

2020-03-15 17:01:14 UTC

And becouse of this they are more targeted by progaganda

2020-03-15 17:01:17 UTC

Which enhaces th

@Throttles miss you too matey

2020-03-16 00:46:09 UTC

You see them participate in sports, ok
