As soon as the American people figure out that we are not gonna out-logic people who wield ignorance as a weapon, we’ll be able to move forward.

All the white *Christians*, if we’re playing the imaginary friends card.

Because maybe people are starting to realize the job was done by a joint Republican administration/CIA/Israeli inside job as a false flag operation to get a greenlight for the Middle East

Jfc, Mamdani was 10 when this happened. He went home and cried like all the other little kids. (and many grownups)

People really can’t get over racism. Can they 😑

One of my coworkers pointed out today that my boss and I vote for people who have different religions than us in every election, without it ever being a big deal (we’re both atheists).
A person’s religion is not a deciding factor in whether I vote for them. Their political views are.

Anyone want to guess the race of the mayor of Oklahoma City?

Because all of the Christian politicians so far were corrupt or abusers.

Well it worked out so well for Londons stabbing rates, just imagine what it could do for New Yorks shooting rates!

How about all white citizens of the USA that celebrate the people and the states that practiced slavery and are utterly unable to distance themselves from their heriatage? Dont think the mayor of NY ever celebrated the guys in the planes.

I don’t like the way Johnson brings Christianity into the government. It’s not about the religion. If Mamdani tries to bring anything Islamic into the government, I’d oppose that too.
It’s fine that he’s a Muslim. It doesn’t appear to be a big driver of his administrative/policy ideas.

They need some help with adjectives. “Extremist”. Not “Islamic”. Everyday Muslims have as much to do with 9/11 as modern-day Christians have with the Crusades or the Inquisition or the Francoist massacres.

The nuance has been completely lost in American politics.
How could the Northern Irish vote in a Catholic majority to the Belfast City council after what the IRA did to them throughout The Troubles?
But they did. In 2012.
Not all Muslims are terrorists, not all Christians are good people but MOST people of all persuasions aren’t fucking extremists.
Extremism is the problem.
Takes a touch of big picture and little of bit nuance and you’ll be amazed how good the overwhelming majority of people are.
