There is a lot of hate in that article. It’s basically just bashing Islam and pretending it’s news. If these are the kind of authors defending him, he probably deserved the fine.
Just copy paste “religion of peace” for like 5 paragraph instead.
Someone being arrested for criticizing a religion is pretty newsworthy to be fair
Islam is a hateful religion. It’s fair to bash hate. Paradox of tolerance and all that.
All religions are hateful.
The right targets one religion, compounding xenophobia for political gains, while preaching Jesus. Even Judaism can’t be seen as peaceful anymore because of its link to Israel.
It’s clear the article is meant to drum up hate. Only an idiot would fall for this bullshit.
Pray for your enemies. Turn the other cheek. The master should rule as a servant. The first should be the last, the last first. There is no Jew, nor Greek, man, or woman in Christ. Measure for measure. There is your daily dose of religion.
Are you really doing a “both sides” thing now?
Yes because it fully applies. This article would still be hateful if it talked about any other religion and implying one particular religion is more harmful then the rest, as to maliciously target a minority for political gain is gross.
It’s ironic because there’s only one religion that is actively trying to convert me and throwing around it’s weight to pass disgusting laws in my country. And it’s the one using Islam as a scape goat.
You’re looking at the most extreme members of the religion and assuming that’s the norm. Christianity and Judaism don’t look great when you do that either. By that standard, all religions are religions of hate
A religion where women don’t have equal rights doesnt deserve to exist. You are okay with christian conservative bullshit?
No, but I know a dog whistle when I see one.
Germany doing a fascism? Color me surprised.
Europeans allow the nanny state to handle problems. That is the European mentality. Everything is supposed to be neutral and equal, and any disharmony is dealt by the state. In America, we have anti-free speech lobbyist and their allies who want to make the American people subservient, and docile. These are the people like Hillary Clinton, John Kerry, Joe Biden, and the bunch.
I get why Germany specifically has anti-free speech laws, but surely they could’ve some amount of discretion in this case.
Wild, its almost like both people got in trouble for their respective crimes.
Just crazy.
Shouldn’t be a crime to criticize a shitty religion and its shitty preachers.
It is though, so… Too bad?
Edit: and its quite a bit more than criticism, if you would be honest about things.
Saying “too bad” about Fascism is wild
Hate speech and inciting being against the law is an interesting way to define fascism. Rather unique I’d say.
Now that’s a take.
Seems like people associate fascism with far right beliefs and behaviors rather than authoritarianism or nationalism. I was wondering earlier this week if that’s what people have been doing the way that the word “fascism” has been bandied about, I guess this answers my question.
Ah yes, the “free speech absolutist” take. Where yelling “FIRE” in a crowded movie theater is totally cool. Thats what you’re saying right? That all speech is acceptable? Even if the intent is violence? Terror?
Fascism is dictatorial control, violent suppression of opposition, belligerent nationalism and racism, etc.
If you think that describes the far right, then there you go. If the far right has these characteristics, there you go. You figured out why people associate the far right with fascism.
Seems unfair that muslims don’t want to integrate into other countries but want others to follow their shitty religion.
Seems like thats not a crime in Germany.
Stabbing people should be a crime
Shocker then that it is, and that person was shot by the police at the time.
Are you not even aware of what happened, and just trying to make it seem like the only thing that happened was a hateful bigot got stabbed then arrested?
That fits.
