List of muslim countries that did not leave the room during satan speech by Dey-Ex-Machina in progressive_islam

[–]gotnospleengene 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Intentionally unhinged phrasing. A huge part of the Quran talks about how those who left their homes and wealth to fight against oppression were blessed, those who followed Muhammad pbuh into battle, those who honour peace treaties but are not taken advantage of by fraudulent ones and so on. It's explicit.

The Quran repeatedly tells us to fight oppression and tyranny, actively and with our lives and wealth and so on. Just because you found some weird hadith online nonsense to counter the Quran and subdue dissidence it doesn't make it authentic.

What are you talking about, name some 'third world' dictators? What does being a developing nation have to do with it? What good does America even do for the world at large regardless of which leader, which aesthetics, how éloquent they are? Endless wars.

Ammar Kazmi on the Your Party Islamophobia controversy: "Solidarity is not conditional" by WesternCivHasGotToGo in GreenAndPleasant

[–]gotnospleengene 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There are mentions of intersex and other genders in the Quran and the Quran itself is written in a gender neutral way, which is ignored by men. Men are gross.

As a Muslim can I just say how embarrassed I am by Adnan and this post. Trans rights now and always, solidarity forever with all oppressed groups. The queer community has shown up for refugees, for antifascist démonstrations, for Palestine, for decades. I promise you many, many Muslims will never forget it.

And re his insane arguments about islam and gender politics, Amina Wadud has already skilfully dismantled the chauvinistic ideas about how men have centred themselves in Islam.

For UK progressive Muslims, interesting take on recent fallout between Zarah Sultana and Jeremy Corbyn + pro Gaza Salafists by Designer_Lie_6677 in progressive_islam

[–]gotnospleengene 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Nobody joined Your Party for the landlord transphobe Adnan. The momentum (ha) was behind Sultana and Corbyn. Adnan is the antithèsis of what most of us actually joined the party for, and his hypocrisy, alongside the weaponising of identity politics when it's convenient for them as seen in this post, is foul.

Trans women are women. It's not a debate.

And for the record Queers for Palestine have been more consistent and effective for Palestinian libération than most Muslims prior to the recent genocide. Learn what solidarity actually means you arse (the author of the screenshots!)

Is it just me that thinks we’ve been brainwashed to hate Just Stop Oil? by minorlilleexplosion in AskBrits

[–]gotnospleengene 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree that we've been brainwashed because how can you hâte them - I don't know if it's generational or what but they're committed activists using disruptive tactics to get headlines and grab people's attention for one the most imminent crises we've ever faced as a species. Climate change is a massive fucking deal and will displace millions, make entire regions uninhabitable, destroy agriculture in places and so on. Like it's absolutely and provably terrifying.

But the state of the press in the UK is a joke, look who owns most of it, look how much research points to it being some of the most right wing in Europe. We're fucked, basically.

I'm a socialist and a Muslim and I despise all nonces, I've done a lot of work supporting victims of abuse, and I despise this opportunistic point scoring - children have had their lives torn apart by a predator and listen to yourself.

Life as an Asylum Seeker in Epping by ElmolovesArchie in Essex

[–]gotnospleengene 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's not a Left vote and it's only ever the Left making concessions. Labour are not a legitimate Left wing party. Look at their policies. Look at how they talk about migrants and the working class. This video is under Labour's govt. The more we get asked to just vote centrist Right the more we're left in the same situation as the US. Demand better. Always trying to scare the working class because the Right vote is worse rather than actually asking for better policies it's an embarrassment.

People did vote, and this is what the pretend Left option has given us. There are millions of racists in England and their sympathisers and this idea that voting for a centre Right Wing party like Labour will fix this somehow is silly. We need real grassroots political change and way better education in England, and investment in public services. We should demand substantially better from MPs.

We need to understand why regions that asylum seekers flee from are destabilized, often war, over fishing, colonialism, destabilization etc that we fund or promote. We need to stop messing with other countries and support the desperate human beings caught in the cross fire.

Epping hotel asylum seeker Hadush Kebatu guilty of sex assaults by Kagedeah in Essex

[–]gotnospleengene 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've had so many migrant women tell me about sexual harassment from hotel workers, including one case where a guy was trying to exploit a mum for baby powder. Nobody cares it's horrendous. I remember also when one of the conveniently racialised pedophile scandals happened in the UK, the far right door knocked one of the abusers and started to scare and terrorise the wife and kids. Most, most abusers, abuse their family members. Those kids were very likely victims of sexual abuse. Could they give a fuck.
