    You think Meta is generating most of it themselves to intentionally stoke Islamophobia? They’re evil enough to do that and they have a past history of this sorta thing.

    I find it extremely funny how these idiots love to invoke the crusades every chance they get. Reading about Crusader history you’d find that, other than the first Crusade, they were largely a failure and failed to achieve their goals (especially after Saladin captured Jerusalem).

    Not to mention the fourth crusade, were Crusaders sacked not 1 but 2 Christian cities.

          That if we rake your numbers, and Israel is about 1/30th the size of the US, then Israel is 30 more Muslim than the US. So the claim that Israel is somehow ‘anti Islam’ is simply, factually wrong.

    If racist hate and discrimination can’t be moderated and taken care of, it must be shut down in its entirety.

    It’s no different than Nazism and people handing out paper flyers, also illegal. It must be treated as such to uphold any semblance of decent moral fabric throughout an interconnected world.

    Ironic that a non American metric shit ton of those AI posts are made by foreigners living in Muslim countries (or not). They do that because hate brings views and views bring money.

    So the old Bob and Sarah are sharing AI slop made by an Indi or Muslim dude on another continent that they’re unable to place on a map.

      Unfortunately, they are. Christianity is a ‘Choose Your Own Adventure’ religion, which is why there are so many different sects and belief systems.

        “And when you pray, do not be like the hypocrites, for they love to pray standing in the synagogues and on the street corners to be seen by others. Truly I tell you, they have received their reward in full.”

        Matthew 6:5

        My point is real Christians shut the fuck up about their faith as they have nothing to prove.

      The Southern Poverty Law Center was indicted Tuesday on federal fraud charges alleging it improperly raised millions of dollars to secretly pay leaders of the Ku Klux Klan and other hate groups for inside information, acting Attorney General Todd Blanche said.

      Dear god, they were using money to get racist assholes to betray eachother? Those absolute swine, how dare they do something both common and effective. Bastards. Clearly, the crime was so great as to cause the Trump administration to instantly become credible and, in this one legal act, Donald “The Big Cheese” Trump has united left and right together against their true enemy: An advocacy group for brown people!

      … wait no hang on, that’s stupid.
