This is a bit surprising, as previously Islam has always trumped other “progressive” causes. Feminists went mute about Islamic misogyny, race activists said nothing about the persistence of slavery in some Muslim countries, etc. But now the Leftist-Islamic alliance is being seriously strained, at least in Dearborn. Note the pain of one Leftist at the ingratitude of the Muslims: “we fought the right to allow you to come here & now you dare go against us.”
Samira Khan says: “It’s only a matter of time before American Muslims are branded terrorists again and hunted down by the government, but it will be done by the left this time around, not the right.” Islamic groups in the U.S. were always hysterical about any and all counterterror measures, far beyond any proportionality, leading to suspicions that they just didn’t want any counterterror activity at all. But Samira Khan is correct that the Left is ruthless and authoritarian, and will hunt down its enemies. It’s very clear that’s what the groundwork is being prepared for now, with Biden’s handlers’ attempt to portray half the electorate as dangerous criminals who are a threat to the very survival of the republic.

This was inevitable since unholy alliances are never of long duration.

I am neither Christian nor Muslim and I would object to those kinds of materials being used in schools. It is fundamentally wrong and only in the insane world of the liberal left would they be considered otherwise
PRCS says
I’m with you on this.
Retired Navy. Not prudish.
But little children should not be exposed to such material.
So glad to see the left’s foolish ‘intersectionality’ with Muslims begin to collapse.

Leftists have no understanding of Islam at all.

Some may, but are willing to work with Allah’s slaves anyway.

So, where is CAIR?
They are sitting this one out. Because CAIR serves two masters: Islam, and the Democrats.
Gay rights is a pet cause of the Dems, and CAIR knows that.
They cannot sacrifice their access for the sake of Islam’s position on homosexuality.
This is how inauthentic CAIR really is.
࿗Infidel࿘ says
I wonder what the Muslim Brotherhood thinks of this one? Wouldn’t they weigh in on CAIR to pick the side that they support?

“to make it seem as if Muslims and Christians pose some sort of existential threat to the LGBT community.”
Christins should not fall for this line. Christians have no share with the evils of islam.

So true. That some Christians and Jews fall for this whitewash of Islam as morally conservative is utterly foolish.

Michigan: Leftists excoriate Muslims for opposing sexually explicit LGBTQ propaganda in schoolbooks
………………………………….
Well, hard to know what to say here. This stuff in childrens’ schoolbooks is grotesquely inappropriate.
But considering pious Muslims to be defenders of civilized family values is also insane, given Islam’s sacralizing polygamy, child marriage, forced marriage, wife beating, “Honor Killing”, the “Triple Talaq” summary divorce, and the rape of Infidels and their use as sex slaves.
࿗Infidel࿘ says
Even though I loathe the LGBTQIA…. movement and don’t mind being considered anti-Trans, I refuse to take the muslim side on this one. This is one more case of Alien vs Predator, so may they both win i.e. lose
Dave says
The only meaningful part of this issue is how to protect individual adolescents from abuse in the outside World over their sexual identity. School faculty should have the right to stop any verbal or physical bullying such children might face on school grounds. But, no matter how admirable and beneficial it might be, should they be teaching anything at all about sexual and gender identity to children? Is that an area of learning that belongs entirely to parents and caretakers? What if the child is failing at school because they are so emotionally distraught from parental rejection they can barely cope with living much less their studies? These questions are more important than laughing at how a leftist’s ridiculous victim hierarchy looks to the average person, or being amused when a previously protected group falls down a notch on the oppression list.
tim gallagher says
It’s about time that the left wingers fell out with barbaric islam. But I’m sure they will still generally stick together because the main enemy of both the marxist left and the muslim barbarians is western civilisation and our way of life in the western world. No civilised human being should have the time of day for islam. Islam condones pedophilia with its child brides, it calls for non-believers to be killed, there are all those honour killings and rapes of non-Muslim women by Muslims, so, to me, the left wingers usual support of islam shows what absolute morons they are. The support of islam by the ignorant left wingers is inexcusable. Glad to see this sign of the two groups falling apart.

Tweet from ‘Samirah’:
Well, ‘Samirah’
While I normally loathe the Left, in this case they would be justified in claiming that they fought for the right to allow you people (yeah, I used that very phrase deliberately!) to come here and therefore you don’t have the right to turn on them. Why? B’cos there were very good reasons to block you people from coming here, but yet, those traitors to the free world fought to allow you in. Despite all the people that you people have been raping! Despite all the people that you people have been murdering. Despite all the people that you people have been intimidating. You people are terrorists and have no business being here. Yet here you are, against our better judgement, all b’cos those traitors to our civilization succeeded in getting you in
After all that, they do have a right to do what they like to your kids: you owe it to them. In fact, given how you people treat little girls, a double-mastectomy would be the least of the problems that they risk going through over the course of their lives. Similarly, if your little boys are encouraged, keeping you people in the dark, to undergo a vaginoplasty (implantation of artificial wombs in their bodies), it would save countless little girls decades later from being raped by them
So normally, I do agree w/ your arguments when it comes to non-muslim kids. But w/ your kids, I actually think that these groomers are unwittingly doing Western society a favor by including your kids in their nefarious program
somehistory says
I was being harassed by a collection company on behalf of a company I didn’t owe…they had skipped traced, but stopped with his previous number…which I had acquired.
Finally, after having been really nice for dozens of times, I answered the woman, one with a Black person’s voice, ‘You people won’t….” and she hung up. When I called her back to chew her out, she said it was because I said “you people.” I told her I meant, as in, “at your company” but she thought it was the Balck thing.
Some people just don’t like being called that, do they?
I have pity for all of the kids….they are being used and abused and this is just plain wrong. Whoever is doing it.
somehistory says
Black thing. this type is so pale, I can’t see my mistakes.
࿗Infidel࿘ says
I recall H Ross Perot using that term while addressing some Blacks in 1992, and getting a lot of grief and mockery for it. I recognize that it’s considered offensive by many, which is why I never use it for Blacks. muslims are another story altogether
somehistory says
Yeah, I wasn’t trying to offend the woman; I just was saying that the people at that company…all kinds of voices over the phone…refused to listen to me, that I was not the person they wanted. when she hung up on me, after I had listened to them so many times and they refused to…well, it was too much and she hadn’t cared that they were offending me with harassment.
I don’t use that term face to face with a Black person.

Some years ago, Bill O’Reilly used the ‘you people’ line on CAIR’s Honest Ibe Hooper. Well, that definitely didn’t sit well with HIH.
I loved it!

Now The Left learns that islamic teachings and 99% of muslims who practice that Fascist Religious Cult despise Liberalism and their ”progressive” agenda so its good to see them wake up and learn that islam is NOT their Ally but in fact muslims have been merely using these bleeding heart Liberal morons as useful idiots until islam gets more and more power so they can throw them all off a rooftop, starting with the Gay folks and then work on down the line.
However it is a treat to watch them attack each other…

Note to ‘progressives”.
Islam is an extremely conservative ideology. Allah’s slaves are NOT your allies.
࿗Infidel࿘ says
The term ‘conservative’ is exceedingly generous. allah’s slaves are retrograde and reactionary, and more akin to Nazis and Communists. B’cos they’re akin to the latter, ‘progressives’ end up assuming that allah’s slaves are their allies
PRCS says
With this definition at hand:
adjective: conservative
averse to change or innovation and holding traditional values.
Similar:
traditionalist
traditional
conventional
orthodox
They ain’t gonna change.
tgusa says
I cant help but laugh even though I still feel a little bit bad for even the idiot left. I hate myself for that. The left thought they could align with opposing ideologies. Opposing ideologies, that has to be in the top ten of greatest understatements in the history of the world. The left, progressives? Hardly. They are guilty of never thinking through the inevitable clash between those alliances or anything else for that matter.
