    What even is that image? They clearly think they are the good guys. Why does their armor look like something the sith would use if you just replace the symbol?

    It just gives those evil vibes. Are they not scared someone might get a „are we the baddies?“ thought?

    I live a few miles from Dearborn, and my nearby MAGA relatives are putting in overtime sharing all this slop because they have been whipped up into a frenzy about da scary Mooslems for decades.

    I find it extremely funny how these idiots love to invoke the crusades every chance they get. Reading about Crusader history you'd find that, other than the first Crusade, they were largely a failure and failed to achieve their goals (especially after Saladin captured Jerusalem).

    Not to mention the fourth crusade, were Crusaders sacked not 1 but 2 Christian cities.

    Do people even still use Facebook or has it completely been taken over by bots at this point?

    Sometimes I go to fb to see a restaurants page or something, and when I press back it takes me to the front page. Out of morbid curiosity I sometimes scroll a bit, and lately there are so many posts from ~ 30-50yr old people pointing out how many mosques there are (here in Finland), how many people are wearing hijabs, etc. Like its straight up literal xenophobia, fear of foreign people.

    I left that garbage eons ago. I'm unfortunately Gen-X. There are a lot of us on there. I usually tell people I'm a Xennial now because to be honest, I don't friggin remember anything past 1980. I remember the scary ass fucking puppet lady from Mr Rogers if that means anything lol

    to bad as I worry people won't realize how good things can be without a perspective from the 70's. it was not all hams and plaques but its direction was improvement. I often think about how when you were hard pressed to see anything plastic outside of toys that life was pretty nice and convenient enough. As much as I like the internet and computers im starting to feel like there is not a whole lot of quality of life improvements with technology in a general way.

    You think Meta is generating most of it themselves to intentionally stoke Islamophobia? They're evil enough to do that and they have a past history of this sorta thing.

    If racist hate and discrimination can't be moderated and taken care of, it must be shut down in its entirety.

    It's no different than Nazism and people handing out paper flyers, also illegal. It must be treated as such to uphold any semblance of decent moral fabric throughout an interconnected world.

    Okay I'm ready to take in the crusaders. Now where are we fighting again? I don't see a quest marker.

    Ironic that a non American metric shit ton of those AI posts are made by foreigners living in Muslim countries (or not). They do that because hate brings views and views bring money.

    So the old Bob and Sarah are sharing AI slop made by an Indi or Muslim dude on another continent that they’re unable to place on a map.

    About 40 in the US government Less than 20 in the Israëli government

    4,5 million in the US 1,8 million in Israel

    Your point?

    That if we rake your numbers, and Israel is about 1/30th the size of the US, then Israel is 30 more Muslim than the US. So the claim that Israel is somehow 'anti Islam' is simply, factually wrong.

    To be fair to Meta it is full with all kind of racist and religious-phobic posts.

    As a former Christian, those people aren't Christians.

    Unfortunately, they are. Christianity is a 'Choose Your Own Adventure' religion, which is why there are so many different sects and belief systems.

    "And when you pray, do not be like the hypocrites, for they love to pray standing in the synagogues and on the street corners to be seen by others. Truly I tell you, they have received their reward in full."

    Matthew 6:5

    My point is real Christians shut the fuck up about their faith as they have nothing to prove.
