Pat Condell: "A word to rioting Muslims"

Post Reply New Topic

'Islam is not a race'. Nothing is a race. Racism comes from racialising a group of people. You can point at the Koran and say 'Jeez, there's some f*****g awful stuff in here' - that's a strict criticism of a religious text, and in the appropriate time and place, I'll join you. But Mr Condell's (and other) huge brushstrokes method of attacking Muslims as though 'Muslim' is a monolith, and talking about 'The West' in a similar way is just so much maundering bollocks. I've read the transcript but daren't watch the video incase the image of Mr Condell's face as it would appear at orgasm as he tells his significant other 'yeah, swallow it, b***h' is forever burned on my retinas.

Again, you attack religion but support nationalism.



The biggest threat to 'our' way of life - to our lives, full stop - is Capitalism. You can deport all the Muslims you want - hell, all the immigrants you want - but you won't do away with homelessness and bad housing, lack of work, overwork, low pay, misogyny, families going without, surging inequality, run down public services and good old class antagonism. But you might find scapegoats harder to come by, and even end up one yourself.

Capitalism - the making of profit from one's own labor or the investment in the labors of others - is not a threat. It is the enslavement of others for the purpose of making that profit that is the real threat. Capitalism provides the incentive for progress. Lack of capitalistic incentive keeps people ignorant and lazy.

"But it isn't fair" is the call of a loser.

'But it isn't fair' is a moral judgement about the system as a whole.

The attempted 'enslavement' of others is inevitable in Capitalism, and is attained in a looser, tinged with metaphor sense, and sometimes a literal sense.

Capitalism does not provide the incentive for progress. Human curiosity and ingenuity does.

Under Islamic law, rape can only be proven if the rapist confesses or if there are four male witnesses. Women who allege rape, without the benefit of the act having been witnessed by four men who subsequently develop a conscience, are actually confessing to having sex. If they or the accused happens to be married, then it is considered to be adultery.

What's the punishment for such crime? Stoned to death..(no not with weed)

What concerns me more than islamic extremism is the commonality of language used by modern islamophobes and that of anti-semites 80 years ago.

As has been correctly said, Islam, is a genuine credible threat neither to myself or the indigenous population of Great Britain. However it makes a wonderful boogeyman for the right wing media and carpet baggers like Pat Condell to hurdle the masses against.
