Muslims all over Europe are freaking out after Sweden made a historic and courageous decision: it will no longer use the term “Islamophobia,” coined by the Muslim Brotherhood, because it is a politically manipulated concept aimed at silencing criticism of Islam. Swedish Foreign Minister Maria Malmer Stenergard announced that her government will push the European Union and the United Nations to stop using this fraudulent term. The concept of “Islamophobia” was deliberately designed to equate legitimate criticism of Islamic doctrine with racism. It was weaponized to shut down discussion about core Islamic texts containing commands to wage war, rape, and subjugate non-Muslims. Sweden just recognized what millions of Europeans already know: criticizing a religion that openly calls for the murder and sexual enslavement of non-believers is not a phobia, but basic common sense and self-preservation. This is a massive blow to the Islamist lobby across Europe. Do you agree with Sweden’s decision?

@VintageFreeMind @ReasonOnFaith Great, what evidence do you have for any of the supernatural claims in the Quran?

@HyderMahmood @ReasonOnFaith There are many proofs imo to establish that Muhammad (sa) or any man of that time couldn't have been quran's author.

Announcements of ex-communication of members of the Ahmadiyya Muslim Community for marrying outside the community (or for their adult children marrying outside the community). Why not a private removal to only the affected individuals? /1

Today's ruling by the IOC means a welcome return to fair sport for women and girls, but I'll never forget the scandal of Paris 2024, when people who consider themselves supremely virtuous and progressive publicly cheered on men punching women.

The UAE stands as a strong partner of the United States. No ceasefire with the Islamic regime in Iran. Not now. You don’t negotiate with terror. You end it. The UAE stands firm. Zero space for terrorists. Germany, Britain, Spain's governments say they want a diplomatic solution with this terrorist regime. Fine. Let it be your neighbour. Take its leadership, as you did with the Muslim Brotherhood. Give them citizenship. They are all yours. If you want the rubbish, take it but don’t ask us to accept it or live with it. It stinks. You can have it. Live with it alone. This Saturday will not pass quietly. It will be marked. It will be remembered.

@VintageFreeMind @ReasonOnFaith Not surprised it only applies to men, given that it was written by men.

@HyderMahmood @ReasonOnFaith This comes directly from Quran which only permits men to marry outside of faith.

@VintageFreeMind @ReasonOnFaith This screams of an insecure and weak ideology that it needs to do this and continues to do so. I do thank you for being open about it; I really hope more Ahmadis give their opinions on bigger platforms so people can see how absurd the practices are.

@ReasonOnFaith Why? It is to discourage ahmadis from following such practices that are considered immoral and sinful by Jama'at.

In order to be born, you needed: 2 parents 4 grandparents 8 great-grandparents 16 second great-grandparents 32 third great-grandparents 64 fourth great-grandparents 128 fifth great-grandparents 256 sixth great-grandparents 512 seventh great-grandparents 1,024 eighth great grandparents 2,048 ninth great-grandparents For you to be born today from 12 previous generations, you needed a total of 4,094 ancestors over the last 400 years. Think for a moment: How many struggles? How many battles? How many difficulties? How much sadness? How much happiness? How many love stories? How many expressions of hope for the future? – did your ancestors have to undergo for you to exist in this present moment...

Have any of the American atheist/humanist/secular organisations had anything remotely useful to say about the three Islamic terror attacks carried out in their country in the last 7 days? Or are they still mad at Richard Dawkins for understanding biological sex?

Leftism begins as compassion for the poor, but ends as contempt for the prosperous. Rightism begins as respect for the past, but ends as revulsion for the present. Each side grows to loathe the other’s values more than it prizes its own. Politics devours love, and defecates hate.

"No" - Allah.

“Thank you, Trump!” NYC (March 1) — Iranian-Americans hold a rally celebrating the airstrikes on the Iranian regime and the death of its supreme leader. Video by @NJEGmedia:

Tonight we celebrated Ali Khamenei’s death in New York, while somewhere, some insufferable non-Iranian libtards were probably lighting candles and writing think pieces about him.

Mostly amazed that the same people who are afraid of the US becoming the Handmaid’s Tale got upset when the architect of the real one was eliminated

Muslim countries that support today's U.S strike on Iran: Kuwait, Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Turkey, UAE, Bahrain Muslim countries that DO NOT support today's U.S. strike on Iran: France, United Kingdom

Marco Rubio realizing he’s the new Supreme Leader of Iran.

Thank you, @realDonaldTrump , for listening to the Iranian people. Ending negotiations with a regime that murders its own citizens is not escalation it is moral clarity. Iranians are calling America to take lead. Convene the G7 and rally Europe to act, not with statements, but concrete actions. Target the Islamic Republic’s terrorists who are slaughtering the Iranian people. Downgrade diplomatic ties. Shut down embassies. End legitimacy. An emergency meeting of world leaders is needed to help the Iranian people win this fight. This is not about politics. It is about stopping mass murder and choosing the right side of history. A free Iran will strengthen America, stabilize the region, and the world.

The Western liberal media is ignoring the Iranian uprising because explaining it would force an admission it is desperate to avoid: the Iranian people are rebelling against Islam itself, and that fact shatters the moral framework through which these institutions understand the world. Ideally, to cover an uprising is not just to show crowds and slogans. It requires answering a basic question: why are people risking death? In Iran, the answer is simple and unavoidable. The people are rising up because the Islamic Republic of Iran has spent decades suffocating every aspect of life—speech, work, family, art, women, and economic survival—under a clerical system that treats liberty as a crime. There is no way to tell that story without confronting the nature of the regime. Western media refuses to do so because it has fundamentally misunderstood Islam. Or worse, it has chosen not to understand it. Islam, in Western progressive discourse, has been racialized. It is treated not as a belief system or a political ideology, but as a stand-in for race or ethnicity. Criticizing Islam is framed as an attack on “brown people,” Arabs, or “the Middle East,” as if Islam were a skin color rather than a doctrine. This confusion is rooted in historical illiteracy. Western liberal media routinely collapses entire civilizations into a single stereotype: “all Middle Easterners are Arabs,” “all Arabs are Muslim,” and “all Muslims are a monolithic, oppressed identity group by white European colonizers.” Iranians disappear entirely in this framework. Their language, history, and culture—Persian, not Arab; ancient, not colonial; distinct, not interchangeable—are erased. By treating Islam as a racial identity rather than an ideology, Western media strips millions of people of their ability to reject it. Iranian protesters become unintelligible. Their rebellion cannot be processed without breaking the rule that Islam must not be criticized. So instead of listening to Iranians, the media speaks over them—or ignores them entirely. There is another reason the Iranian uprising is so threatening to Western media is economic issues. As you know, Iran is not only a religious dictatorship. It is a centrally controlled, state-dominated economy where markets are strangled, private enterprise is criminalized or co-opted, and economic survival depends on proximity to political power. Decades of price controls, subsidies, nationalization, and bureaucratic micromanagement have obliterated the middle class and entrenched corruption as the only functional system. The result is not equality or justice. It is poverty, stagnation, and dependence on government’s dark void of empty promises. Covering Iran honestly would require acknowledging that these policies are harmful. They have been tried. They have failed. Catastrophically. This is deeply inconvenient for Western media institutions that routinely promote expansive state control, centralized economic planning, and technocratic governance as morally enlightened alternatives to liberal capitalism. Iran demonstrates where such systems lead when insulated from accountability and enforced by ideology. It shows that when the state controls livelihoods, non-conformity becomes existentially dangerous. That lesson cannot be acknowledged without undermining the moral authority of those who advocate similar ideas in softer language. Western liberal media prefers not to hear this. Acknowledging it would require abandoning the lazy moral categories that dominate modern discourse: oppressor and oppressed, colonizer and colonized, white and non-white. Iranian protesters do not fit. They show that authoritarianism is not a Western invention imposed from outside, but something many societies are actively trying to escape. That is what terrifies Western liberal media. And that is why the Iranian people are being ignored. So the silence continues.
