I mean, I don’t like Abunimah and clashed with him on twitter before (I think it was on Syria). But calling him an “islamist” is just pure bigotry. Bullshit vilifying over-generalisation is why islamophobe fascists are on the rise in Europe. The term “islamist” has become utterly meaningless. “Oh, he is brown and I don’t like him? He is an ISLAMIST!”
Lol, I have to check out if I can block you. I despice right wing trolls. But this is the headline of the article you cited and on which I commented:
“Erneut hätte ein Islamist in Zürich auftreten sollen, nun ist der Mann verhaftet worden. Regierungsrat Mario Fehr spricht von einem «Judenhasser»”
Und “Islamist” heißt auf english halt “islamist”. Versuch nicht meinen Kommentar zu verdrehen. Unglaublich, AFD-Taktiken…
My whole comment was about the use of the word islamist and you act like I defended him. I call this “ill faith”.
Then why does you answer to my comment have nothing to do with the point of my comment.
Maybe it have to spell it out: My point was that western media use the word “islamist” utterly arbitrary to attack brown people of any ideology, thus rendering the term useless. And that is discussingly racist. This is especially true for far right media like the NZZ that you cited.
Your point was that you apparently presume that I defend him, which I didn’t. He blocked me ten years ago in Twitter after a heated discussion. I don’t like him.
I now presume that your are discussing with bad intentions.
And how does this make him an islamist?
You’ve just involuntarily proven my point that the word “islamist” is just utterly arbitrary and mostly just used to hide racism at this point.
“I admire Mr. Musk"
The words “islamist” or “islamism” are so utterly meaningless nowadays. Basically means “brown person whose opinion we don’t like”.
I mean, there are things to critizise about him. But anyone who calls him an islamist juts shows his bigotry or utter stupidity.
It was not about ending it, but about financing and actively enabling it…
Israel would have run out of bombs 20000+ dead children ago if Biden would have wanted to let those children live.
Biden deserves to spend the rest of his days in prison. Trump does as well.
Bush, Obama, Trump and Biden. Not just Biden.
There is a little speculation in his text, but most seem to be public news.
There are NATO members who mostly joined so that the US wouldn’t attack them.
I am uncertain what I want. I kinda like what lemmy is now. I don’t really want it to become mainstream. On the other hand I want the corporations to fail and lemmy is the best chance we have.
They did that to halve of this world, just not to that many western countries.
Ah okay, I thought this Caretaker government turned into a somehat working stopgap. Okay, so, everyone, ignore my comment on Belgium. :)
I would mostly be worried how he ignores processes. There is a U.S. Board on Geographic Names for these things. A president shouldn’t ignore these structures.
I also hate bureaucracy and it has to be limited as much as possible, but there are reasons why governing by decree is not a good way to govern a country. It leads to chaos.
As someone from “outside the US”: It isn’t much better elsewhere. Italy has a fascist government, France is fucking up everything, Sweden has a governemnt depending on a borderline fascist party, the Netherlands has borderline fascists as part of the government, in Germany open fascists poll at 20% as the 2nd most popular party (elections are next month), Georgia is on the brink of civil war, Korea is in a utterly weird crisis/coup mode, in the middle east we are having a genocide happening, Sudan is in chaos, and so on and on.
On the bright side: Things appear to be somewhat okay in Spain and Belgium seems to have a somewhat half-working government.
How would that even fit here? If the US changes the name there would be two names that fit that description (which isn’t uncommon at all tbh).
Do you mean that Iran (translates to the land of the Aryans) should govern the USA? Or do you hint towards the Nazi race theories? But I thinkt the only Trump child that could be considered “Nazi approved Aryan” is Tiffany Trump, the others are all half slavic and thus considered sub-humans.
Tbf, Adolf Hitlers salutes were really sloppy.
What the hell is “the ground rule”? Naming is artificially defining things and as that basically arbitrary.
I got this a few minutes ago. And this probably shows how much chatgpt is fucked up by the bias in western media.
Edit: a friend of mine did the same query on the app (I used the website) and got different results. So different versions produce different results. They probably manually corrected this in newer versions (is my guess). The older results still show the massive bias.
