I’m not asking you to stop denouncing institutionalized homophobia. Nor am I ‘justifying’ social & religious structures. Just saying that they are kind of on the opposite side of the spectrum, and to understand it better, and to help make it better, one must listen to the LGBTQ activists who grew up in said cultures…

Somebody has replied to me, saying you were talking about being a gay man. I am definitely not talking about you ‘not experiencing’ violence and hatred towards you for being homosexual. I’m talking about the very, very complicated setups of social and religious structures, especially in rural areas of the countries in…

Gotta love the media that went out of their way to find the two lunatic fanatics and use it to broad brush all Muslims while ignoring the fact that a large portion of American Muslims, who this exhibit was supposedly targeted at, just shrugged their shoulders and didn’t care but supported her right to say this crap…

I think your comment showed up in HyperCard.

When I first heard of this, I was at work, thinking to myself that it was probably someone being culturally ignorant to hold an event like this. I honestly thought this was some children's event to try to do some misguided cultural awareness. Then I saw that it was at a convention center and was like oh please don't…

Makes sense. Thuggery=brown.

Only if the assumption is that anytime Muslims are offended, they will act violently and not control themselves. That seems like a pretty big jump.

That top pic is BEGGING for a dirty Photoshop contest.

That’s some good Kinja right there!

that’s amazing how did you even do that

WOAH WHAT THE FUCK HAPPENED???????????????????????????????

it literally went the opposite of this

Unless you’re a Muslim, it’s doesn’t matter whether or not you care - you’re not the one being goaded by having your religion dragged through the mud just so bigots can point at you when you get angry about it and scream “SEE?! SEE?!”.

I see people pretty severely criticizing the actions of, say, ISIS (who I’ve referred to in these pages as “demonic pieces of shit”). We wrote extensively about Farkhunda, the woman beaten to death after she was accused of burning a Koran. No one is silent on these hideous crimes — they generate outrage and anger and…

Geller says the violence proves that Islam is “savagery” and “thuggery.”

It’s frightening. She was HOPING for an attack, which means she cared little for the safety of her staff, the cops, or the attendees.

I’m not even gonna bother. Just gonna sip my tea.

I will hold a thousand exhibits in solidarity with the Charlie Hebdo editorial staff.

Two of one kind of asshole showed up at a convention for a different type of asshole. Only people in this scenario deserving any sympathy are the un-involved Muslims, but of course they’re not talking about them on the news.
