- Austria: Muslim migrants want ban on jokes about Islam - survey
THE majority of Muslim migrants in Austria want jokes about Islam to be banned, according to a new university survey. Please note: This article has been shortened. Source: http://www.express.co.uk/news/world/840500/Migrants-Europe-Muslims-refugees-Austria-Islam-jokes-burka-ban The controversial ban to block residents from wearing full-face coverings in public was met with fury from some human rights group and condemnation from many Muslim organisations. Lol.... Iran is surprisingly in front in comparison.

Austria wants to become CE? Then they are truly lost.... I remember when I went to school in SW Sydney (predominately Muslim area) following 9/11, we weren't allowed to mention the causes or reasoning behind 9/11, had a whole letter sent home and everything (which eventually made it to the Current Affairs program here). Sigh....loathe being brought up under that pugnacious fairy tale.

Nothing says progressive like protecting the ability of a group to engage in oppressive actions without criticism or mockery. how does a poll asking migrant Muslims what they think reflect poorly on "progressive"s? are you actually asserting that migrant Muslims accurately represent the "progressive" movement? or did you not actually read the article at all and simply displayed your gut reaction to liberals?

I'm not entirely sure what he meant but I would assume he means how criticism of Islam is often a very quick way to be labeled right wing by those who know nothing about the religion (or those following Taqiya or spreading a misguided Dawah).

I don't really get the point of this article tbqh
They basically asked people who are accustomed to stuff like that being banned whether they think it should be banned. Of couse some of them are going to say yes. |

Ask Americans whether jokes about Christianity or the constitution be banned and you would find similar results. Equally as stupid (although I'd have a tiny bit more tolerance to something like the Constitution, still wouldn't agree with it though). In fact I'm sure there was a recent poll about it, f***ed if I can find it though.

They basically asked people who are accustomed to stuff like that being banned whether they think it should be banned. The problem with Islam (as always wherever it spreads) is it refuses to assimilate (or does so extremely slowly via the use of garbage words like Islamophobia, which means nothing).

Anti-Islam crowd is generally people whose lives Islam f***ed over during childhood - I don't much care for the far-right take on it since that is clearly for their own ends.

The problem with Islam (as always wherever it spreads) is it refuses to assimilate universally? edit: i shouldn't have started this because i really don't want to get into a long winded debate over this. i realized i brought it up, but i shouldn't have. my apologies.

universally? Pretty much, it's hard to find an example where Islam has spread and something positive has been the outcome (of course this can be said of all religion) but those who think Islam doesn't control more of life than Christianity, especially in this day and age don't know much about Islam). That or we have the usual apologists hiding behind "Abrahamic Faith is all like it" - yeah they're all bad, Islam just happens to be the worst at the moment.

"I think this election showed us that polls don't matter" -Republicans
"Polls matter" -Also Republicans That said, this is sad. Give an inch and they take a mile.
When it's kids, it's "bullying" but if it were adults, it's stalking, harassment, assault, criminal threats and just general abuse. -Tmk

"I think this election showed us that polls don't matter" -Republicans This is true, I've never been more certain that I don't identity as either left or right on most issues. For example I cannot just bash or defend Trump on everything he does...context is great (though he does f*** up most things).

I think Vince just had an extra limo sitting around that he didn't need lol....I honestly didn't even notice this was a different topic.... Coffeebeanz posted... Regardless of what culture you come from, it's unreasonable to migrate to another country and demand their culture to adapt to yours. This especially applies to Americans going to the Middle East, but it also applies vice versa. Exactly, with the exception of certain wars....if a Christian (or Atheist) went to Iran and decided that...well...certain things should change, the outcome would be most obvious.

They aren't demanding anything. They were asked this question as part of a survey.

Wow I didn't realize I posted the Vince thing in this topic lol
I'm gonna leave it |

The "west" still has large parts that think Women and LBGT are worth less than men. In a lot of wester countries it's only relatively recently been delgalised being gay. Women? that's nonsense. Where in the west are women thought of as less than men? Lumping women in with minorities is such a farce. |
