TF are you talking about? Muhammed was rich as fuck while he was slaughtering his "enemies". Ask yourself why you are struggling to justify it. Ask yourself why poor palestinians are worshiping a wealthy artistocrat. stop trying to paste a "class war" onto this struggle. you're not going to get anywhere with it. Iran backs this shit and they are one of the wealthiest nations in the world. Stop trying to justify terrorism as the actions of "oppressed poor people". It's intellectually dishonest and lazy.

Gladly most muslims selectively do not follow the parts of the Quran which advocate violence, but it is definitely in there. Islamic extremists are basically literal interpreters of certain parts of the book, mostly those written by Muhammad himself, who was a warrior/aristocrat LARP'ing as a spiritual guru.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Muhammad

"Subsequent to obtaining a divine instruction to battle the polytheists, Muhammad dispatched his followers to perform raids on the Quraysh's trading caravans. Certain Meccan followers of his were reluctant to partake, as it would mean attacking their own tribespeople. This vexed Muhammad, resulting in the revelation of Quran verse 2:216, among others, which asserts that fighting is good and has been made obligatory for them. After several months of failures, Muhammad managed to achieve his first successful raid, at Nakhla, during a month that the pagans forbade themselves from shedding blood. When the bountiful plunder was being brought back to him in Medina, Muhammad was met with censure from the locals. He contended that his followers had misconstrued his command, and he postponed taking his one-fifth portion of the spoil until a verse was ultimately revealed, legitimizing the attack.

In the early stages of his time in Medina, Muhammad was optimistic that the Jewish people would acknowledge him as a Prophet and strove to obtain converts from their community. However, his efforts were unsuccessful and even faced ridicule, as the Jews perceived inconsistencies between the Quran and their own scriptures. Consequently, the Quran accused the Jews of hiding and modifying parts of their holy texts. The Jewish criticism and refusal presented a danger to his prophetic claims, and, as a result, the views of Muhammad and the Quran towards them worsened. This then led to the reorientation of the Muslim prayer direction, the qibla, from Jerusalem to the Kaaba. Following the Battle of Badr, Muhammad revealed his intention to expel the Jews from the land. Once the ransom arrangements for the Meccan captives were finalized, he initiated a siege on the Banu Qaynuqa, regarded as the weakest and wealthiest of Medina's three main Jewish tribes."

These terrorists wouldn't hesitate to slit your throat if you didn't pledge allegiance to Muhammad, and even if you did they'd probably still murder you. And that's why they all need to be sent promptly back to Allah to check in, permanently. It's really sad that some of their normal/moderate compatriots will be joining them, but unfortunately, that's their whole plan. Use the palestinian people as a gigantic group of hostages which they can slowly sacrifice on their altar to Muhammed. And don't make the mistake of turning this into a class war about "oppressed people". Muhammed filled palaces with treasure he stole from the people he murdered.

is this the part where twenty somethings on the internet gather to exclaim loudly "I hate hypocrites too"?

then you should love jesus, because he hated religious hypocrites just as much as you do. In fact, it was those hypocrites who killed him.

If jesus returned today, he would be killed at a MAGA rally, probably.

i'm a christian in SPITE of the church, not because of it.

thats only true if the pace of vaccine development is fast enough to catch up. there is no evidence that we are fast enough yet. and plenty of evidence that we aren't.

[–] protovack@lemmy.world -1 points 11 months ago

ah the classic "if only a few more people got vaccinated early on, we could have prevented the entire thing"....lol. no.

yea, the original one indeed does not work anymore, they don't even give it anymore. and the "new" one is based on a strain that is now over a year old. you think that one is going to "work" even better? lol.

well, at least they paid you back for it. that's actually quite respectable of them. and if they didn't, it would have been a class action lawsuit, so kind of a moot point all around. You got your money back. I recommend using it to obtain several tiers of backup hard drives and make sure you have two physical copies of every piece of media you feel is not replaceable. Because some day, you won't be able to replace it. the corporate dream is nobody owns anything, you just have to jack into their "stream" and consume whatever they feed you. the funniest thing is, people are already getting a head start on that dystopian future. they're doing it to themselves, by actually paying for shitty streaming services. You really shouldn't do that, as it only emboldens them.

this won't be popular to the "better living through chemistry" folks on lemmy, and Reddit. except for the fact that mental health issues are at an all time high, and so are prescriptions. so no one is actually better because of them. while it is proven that people engaged in faith activities have better mental health outcomes.

i switched to milk from local cows that are happy and grass fed... and damn does it taste better. like measurably better, in everything i use it for. grocery store milk now tastes strange to me. it's more expensive, but who really needs to use that much milk? i don't drink it casually, just in baking, etc.

non dairy milks are a scam to sell water to rich city people.
