same reason you can ridicule people who identify as other skin colors but not gender

or how you can generalize chinese tourists but not african americans

its bare minimum tolerance. only tolerate what you must.

Because we know for a FACT that the earth isn't flat.

We have no fucking idea if there's 72 virgins waiting for us when we kill ourselves to murder infidels because well, nobody has come back to confirm.

Why can't we ridicule things we "don't know for a fact" that obviously are silly?

I'm not saying we can't ridicule things that we're not certain are true. The thing is, comparing Islam, which is a belief, to a conspirary theory, is dumb.

It's like saying "why is it okay to mock Mike Tyson for talking funny, but you don't do the same for Brock Lesnar who has Paul Heyman speak for him everytime".

Only one can be factually 100% disproven with basic knowledge and technology that already exists and requires you to develop a global conspiracy theory in your head that makes no sense.

Religion is dumb too though, but at least you can't technically literally factually disprove it, which makes flat earthers dumber.

But that's fucking absurd that 72 virgins are waiting for you when you die because their religion like all religions is bullshit so I should be well within my right to ridicule those primitive and barbaric ideals.

Did a friend of yours come back and tell you he didn't find his virgins but instead he found 72 virginians?
