Debunking the Islamophobia Meme

it's an actual word and he used it properly... I think.

I wasn't laughing at the word, just the transparently manipulative nature of its usage in this instance.

He absolutely used it correctly. His aim was to link the 9/11 hijackers to all Muslims and using a word like terrorist or extremist obviously does not accomplish that.

Thats the root of this whole debacle. Linking all Muslims with the terrorists. And thats why opposition is islamaphobic by nature.

I guess Muslims that oppose the GZM are afraid of themselves.

why do you think they oppose it again?

[DarrinS]

Because they think it's insensitive.

Because they think it's insensitive.

Because they are Muslims that are building it.

round and round.

Nope. Just because 2 seperate groups of people oppose the same thing doesn't mean they oppose it for the same reason.

Nuance, Darrinbot, Nuance.

What a bunch of bull ! Both DarrinS and Yonivore have exposed themselves over and over to be completely prejudiced when it comes to Muslims in general and Islam as a whole. Trying to continue to argue the "because its insensitive" angle is so blatantly ridiculous it stopped being funny quite some time ago.

Face it, while there could be people out there genuinely concerned for the sensitivities of the victims' families, neither of you two give a about that! Its so patently obvious! Nobody here is fooled by your bull , so just admit it!

Come on Manu, you and I both know that what DarrinS is trying to prove is that 58% of Muslims think all Muslims are potential terrorists as well.
