Only slightly and a little too far. No biggie. But I bet that Pieret would agree that when a Christian says that a preference to have sex with trans women is a sin and makes you morally inferior they're being bigoted.John Pieret wrote:I only remember running across igotbanned once before, about a month and a half ago, when Pat was suffering from an infestation of Richard Sanderson and Matt Cavanaugh. They were going on about the alleged psychological damage that Zinnia Jones and Riley Dennis had inflicted on cishet males by suggesting that, maybe, they should at least be open to having intimate relations with trans women. Naturally, at first, Sanderson and Cavanaugh just made the accusations without citing where these evils were visited on the poor cishets. (Predictably, when the citations were pried out of them, it turned out that Zinnia had had a playful exchange with a cishet male about how he might get to like sex with a trans woman and Riley had posted a slightly loopy video where she went a little far by suggesting that a preference not to have sex with a trans woman was, in and of itself, prejudice.)

antifa and dawaah
It is clear that Islam is in favour of something, and not just against something. Islam is clearly in favour of obedience to the laws of our beloved Master, the illustrious Allah, lord of both worlds.
Still, I am personally not against making alliances with people who combat particular detestable political phenomena:
* antifa: against fascism, nazism, racism, and white supremacism
* antista/antigov: against overly powerful national states and governments trying to micromanage every aspect of people's life. Sometimes this also called libertarianism. There will indeed always be territorial/terror-torial leaders, but we certainly do not like their excessive power.
* anticorp/anticap: against corporations or brutal capitalism trying to take over the essence of life. There is a strong current favouring decentralized online markets instead, nicely out of reach of these enemies.
* antifiat: against the usury-infested banksters, trying to replace them and their evils, with cryptocurrencies.
There are quite a few atheists in these movements. Even though I quite reject atheism -- if nothing is assumed, then nothing can be concluded -- I still avoid emphasizing this particular dislike, because there is a "choose your battles" issue involved here. It is a similar problem with supporting highly-divisive views within Islam, dangerously pitting the one group of believers against the other. You can also count me out for those internecine conflicts.
Still, if the ulema/clergy pronounce interdicts that are provable from the Islamic scriptural base --the Quran and its interpretation/application in Sunnah -- against some of these things in particular, I will take that into account and ask people from the anti-x movement to repudiate the error, in absence of which I may end up repudiating them.
Antifa is not an Islamic movement, but they clearly specialize in attacking anti-Muslim political movements in the West. In that sense, they are certainly not useless.
Antifa are known to be violent, but they are understandably also distrustful of the monopoly on violence, i.e. the official government. I understand them, because there may indeed be no other way to achieve particular things. So, I cannot just condemn that. It is the same issue with particular Islamic movements which are also known to be occasionally violent. There is a serious aqeedah (political interest) problem attached to wholesale speaking ill about them. It is not because I mostly specialize in using other instruments than the blunt use of force, that I would agree to discourage other people who just happen to have other views on the subject. Still, in my opinion, they may want to leave the door open for negotiations with the adversary.
Antifa is an anti-x idea. Ultimately, it is only pro-x ideas that matter. Therefore, they are ripe for dawaa/conversion.
They just need to be convinced that Islam does not have the same treacherous and back-stabbing ways as Christianity, a religion which does not seek to bring justice, but mostly to justify injustices. Left-wing people in the West are very suspicious of religion, which is understandable given the history of Christianity, but I think that they could still overcome their distrust and notice that Islam is different, and that Islam could be the pro-x solution that they must be looking for.

Take for example teaching about Henry VIII in history class.

That survey erases the lived experience of the rural poor and working class, It assumes the only shit jobs are waiter/barista/waitress and ignores picking rock, cleaning out calf pens, pulling chickens and hosing turkey guts off machinery.

I took a "history of the Reformation" course when I was an undergraduate and the professor never said anything about who was right or wrong about theological issues. Whether Luther or the Papists were "right" isn't a proper historical question.MarcusAu wrote:

Unless it's pure indoctrination - I don't know how you could teach something even peripherally related to religion without it introducing at least some doubt (or causing the students to raise some questions) as to the doctrine they are supposed to believe.
