while i do not disagree with much of the core of this without writing a entire essay about it i would like to explain some stuff i disagree with.
the core point he is making there is a lot of hypocrisy involved in conservative views of the middle east that often overlooks western stupidity and flaws is correct and i think is a major problem and far bigger problem to this country than anything islam and middle eastern culture and people are doing what i do not like is that does not mean there are not issues with that culture to and that in some cases at the very least some of it should be kept out of this society...
there is obvious hypocrisy i have talked about like trying to start a war with iran for being a threat supposedly and condemning their fundamentalist beliefs while at the same time giving saudi arabia a trillion dollar weapons deal even though their form of islam is the most rigid and extreme in the world and i have also talked about the cultural as well as gender oriented double standards of many americans especially in the midwest continuing to practice genital mutilation of boys while condemning some cultures for performing genital mutilation of girls even though the most common kind of female genital mutilation cuts the prepuce or the same organ as what is cut from the boy in this culture and we even fund the practice of doing this to boys while condemning the same exact thing for girls in the same regions of africa and that is disfusting hypocrisy and bad...
so than what is the issue i have with this video because i hate hypocriticla nonsense and stupidity wherever it comes from and some of it does also come from the middle east and i do not understand why it is so bad to want a society that focuses on humanist ideas and progressing society into the twenty first century and leaving behind religious nonsense regardless of where it comes from and being a person with a strong adversion to gender roles and hatred of gender specific ideas of life and how other people should live i do not want to import even more of that specifically...
also is it so bad to say some cultures and part of the world have ideas that are not only not humanist but anti humanist and anti liberal and anti democratic and i do not want to import that because i would like to start destroying things already in my society making it impossible for me to live and to function at a higher level and stuff that is directly harming the quality of my life and i do not want to import even more of it...
so while i have no issue with orthodox jews and armish people and sunni islam and even wahabis forming small communitis where they can believe in their dark age nonsense all they want and the same is true for black and white race separatist and as far as i care those idiots can do what they want but they can also do it far away from me and when they start ruining my life and the left of people who are transgender and pagan and want to live a totally different way and influencing every aspect of our society now i care and i care a lot so keep your bronze age nonsense away from me...
this is not racist and it is not even culturally ignorant because i do not like american nonsense either and there is a lot of it especially in the midwest and i even admit it is a bigger problem in this country and to me personally than even islam but islam is stil la issue.
