I will never forget when I made a post about problems with antisemitism and islamophobia in the lgbt+ community and some jackass just commented the names of a few shitty people who are muslim or jewish to try to "prove" to me that they're justified in hating us for our respective religions. can't say I remember all the people they listed, but I know they mentioned ben shapiro. oh, and the fucking taliban
now i can't believe I have to say this, and it might come as a shock to antisemites, but the existence of ben shapiro doesn't mean jewish people are evil or inherently homophobic, and he certainly doesn't speak for all jewish people
likewise, and I can't believe I have to say this either, the taliban doesn't speak for all muslims, and their homophobic stance isn't representative of every muslim person
can you imagine if I started saying all atheists are violent because the unabomber was an atheist? do you understand how ridiculous that is?
but if you genuinely believe that a marginalized group can be represented by the worst members of said group, I really don't know what to tell you. except that you are fanning the flames of religious discrimination, and your idealogy gets us killed.
anyway, antisemites and islamophobes are not welcome here
jewish and muslim solidarity forever!
