I finally got my hands and an the article "We Soviet Wives" written by Anna Louise Strong in 1934, talking more on the roles of women in Soviet marriages!let...
Lmao its on the tip of my tongue… isla, islama, islamapho… Angloid. It’s white boys, that what I couldn’t remember 🤣 (it’s not a white Anglo exclusive thing, that was a joke, but it’s a narrative pushed by these countries for no other reason than solidifying the Christian/capitalist status quo and that’s not inaccurate. Most angloid politicians are Christian so their demonisation of Islam tracks hard not to mention all the benefits to creating a new scapegoat and demonising others does to satisfy imperial desires).
Islamaphobia is reactionary af regardless of where its coming from. Either you’re a bigot or you’re a clown who gorges themselves on western propaganda.
Am I a fan of organised religion? Lmao no its shit and one of the judeo religions ruined my life but to tarnish all victimised groups with the Anglo narrative brush seems reductive at best and downright racist at worst.
It is not just “someone”, it is someone who also portrays herself as a Marxist: like a vegan going out for chicken wings. Do you not see the inconsistency?
Can you see the inconsistency in claiming you are anti-imperialist and desire a classless society (communism) but then you perpetuate the imperial racist class discrimination of faith practitioners (particularly Muslims)?
China? has Marxist religious practitioners. Cuba? Marxist religious practitioners. The USSR? Marxist religious practitioners.
Marx himself called religion a reflection of the conditions of society, and his criticism for it was when focus on the otherworldly led to ignoring the conditions of the worldly.
If you think that Marxism requires a complete discrimination against the spirituality and faith of others then you’re just a different flavour of oppressor.
Excuse me but I am not even from the imperial core. I think it is just a cope out that somehow being anti-imperialist means handing yourself over to any sort of wackery as long as it is not from the “imperial core”. And again, people do get a pass for having inherited from their culture and having been born into it. The lady we are discussing? NO, this is not part of her culture, she made the extra effort towards conversion which, again, deserves to be called out and is indeed a red flag that you are not dealing with someone whose main concern is Marxism.
Okay I’ll be sure to tell the Palestinian Society at our next rally that they’re delusional and not real Marxists, but that Shrimpy on the Internet says they get a pass because they were raised that way and presumably that means they’re too stupid to know better.
Get the fuck over yourself, Marxism is not when you alienate every fucking worker who has religion, whether they converted or not. And it’s pretty disgusting to act like converting to Islam is bad because Islam is bad, but somehow being raised in it you get a “pass” because I guess people raised Islam are just not expected to know better? Fuck off with that.
There’s nothing inherently incompatible with Marxism and religion, so long as the religion isn’t used to oppress others or as an escape from seeking worldly resolutions to worldly contradictions.
And yeah, being from outside the imperial core does not give you a pass on perpetuating imperialist bullshit like blanket statements about how Muslim people can’t be real Marxists or that someone is fucking delusional for believing in Allah. Fuck outta here with that oppressive bullshit, do some reading.
I wonder if there’s a word for someone who discounts everything a person says simply because they are Muslim. Hmmmmmmm

It’s not that she is a Muslim, Muslim is really a tangent to her character being dishonest in portraying history.
If it’s not that she’s a Muslim then why is that something you decided to bring up three times as your main proof that she’s not trustworthy?
“delusional enough to convert into it” is pretty fucking clearly islamaphobia, and no amount of “materialism” makes that less true pal.
Because that is one huge red flag that should really raise your eyebrow.
Yeah, you’re absolutely right, islamaphobia is a giant red flag, as is someone calling other people delusional for their faiths.
