Re: mzero

Bro getting into religious vs racial discrimination makes it feel like you're trying really hard to split hairs for some reason.

I get that BLM's initial pitch and slogan is in your face, but if you actually took the time to learn anything about the movement it makes sense in a way that you're not expressing an understanding of

You can't just slap the racist label on someone because you disagree with them. Many Islamic countries do have laws that oppress women. That has nothing to do with race

I have nothing against BLM. I'm saying that just because you don't bring up other races doesn't mean you're singling out one race (just as BLM doesn't mean other races' lives don't matter)

And also I said her argument is dumb but not racist so I'm not actually defending it

I agree that racism as a term is a little sloppy in that scenario

It is tricky, and may still be applicable In some cases because the muslims anti-Islam people are most afraid of tend to look a certain way

Kathy is definitely singling out a race in her post, though. Saying "people should be judged by their skin color's statistics, and the black population has bad stats" is a roundabout way of getting there

I had trouble writing my post because I knew you weren't agreeing with the point you were comparing, but I did disagree with the applicability of that conparison

You did indeed stab me in the back. However, you are only level one, whilst I am level 50. That means I should remain uninjured.
