    “This is wrong by an islamic standpoint” why don’t you go and say that in Iran, Brunei, Pakistan, Saudi Arabia or Afghanistan (or practically any country with an islamic majority), your point of view will surely be much appreciated. Oh and do you remember when a bomb was thrown at the headquarters of a French magazine, killing 12 people, because they drew mohamed? Good times…

      Oh you mean like Indonesia, Malaysia and all of North Africa? You’re free to be an ignorant Islamophobe, but please do it after using Google for five seconds.

        so now the exception is the majority? And Islamophobe it was created to deflect any criticism of islam, I say it’s wrong to throw a bomb and kill 12 because someone drew a picture of mohamed and I’m islamophobic, if I say it’s wrong to give 74 lashes because someone doesn’t agree with your religion and I’m islamophobic, if I say it’s barbaric to behead someone because they spoke against islam and I’m islamophobic, “everything I don’t like is is islamophobia”. Come up with better arguments instead of using buzzwords.

        And I’m against all religions, especially Abrahamic ones, don’t think Islam is special just because I’m criticizing it here.

          No, it was created because people like you hate Muslims, and we needed a term for that. Or are you somehow denying that Muslims experience discrimination based on their religion (if only we had a term for that, maybe something starting with Islam and ending with phobia)?

          Either way I don’t intend to pursue this conversation any further, but if your answer to my question is yes (and even if it’s no, really), you need to interact more with the outside world.

            “Either way I don’t intend to pursue this conversation any further” then there’s nothing more to be said, why answer if you don’t want to discuss it? do you want attention?

      Does not change anything about what i said. Religion has nothing to do with any of this, these countries would still be shitholes even if it never existed, but sure keep telling yourself what you want, makes it easier

        “Religion has nothing to do with any of this” fck… what does it have to do with then? what practical reason do you have to force people to follow rules from an old book full of bullshit?

          İran has been muslim for quite some time, was it always as it is right now? Do you seriously think that islam is the only factor here? Think a little bit for yourself

        No, you that have no idea what you’re talking about, where did I say about hijab? I’m talking about 74 lashes for not agreeing with something. The issue here is this medieval culture of imposing nonsense based on an old book written by ignorant bedouins living in the middle of the desert, and barbarically punishing anyone who doesn’t agree with that nonsense.

          If in Pakistan, a democratic Muslim-majority country, hijab is not mandatory, then what makes you think a majority of Muslims agree with what this poor woman is going through? Hijab is also not mandatory in Turkey, Indonesia, and Morocco, but go on ahead and tell me how all Muslims are blood thirsty savages. Plenty of Muslims protested against the hijab in Iran just last year, but go on ahead and tell me how they support this woman’s sentencing. After all, according to you, a vast majority of Muslims wish harm on women who decide not to wear a hijab.

              She is getting 74 lashes for not wearing a hijab, what in the world are you going on about? You’re trying to say that what she is going through is Islamic and there are plenty of arguments all throughout this comment section proving that it has nothing to do with Islam or Muslims, yet you keep on going on about how evil they are and how they approve of her fate. I suggest you take a reading comprehension test, or better yet, stop trying to purposefully obfuscate your argument as it becomes more and more untenable.
