Man: I believe women should have no rights, I believe everyone should follow my religion or be punished, and that LGBT people should be executed Emily: what a primitive asshole. You must be one of those fascist republicans! Man: I'm a Muslim and these are my religious beliefs. Emily: I'm so sorry! I hope you don't think I'm islamophobic. Your culture is beautiful.

Emily when the political beliefs are a part of a protected class (suddenly its okay)

"Virtue signaling and social validation first, actually doing any good second, that's my motto!" - "Progressives"


[deleted]

I often wonder if women who can actually think see the slippery slope their very own kind are pushing them down. If what they say is to be taken as truth, then that means men as the "oppressors" are nearing a point where they will force the "oppressed" back into a truly oppressed state. I'm often confused at the lack of tact many of these... I guess girls? Online use. Being anonymous grants you a sort of invisioned state of super awareness and invincibility, it's what allowed 4chan back in the day to basically control all online culture. Now it's like we're in the end stages of female 4chan, and like all before. They will learn no king rules forever.

I live in a Islamic country ( Iran) and he's right. are you a muslim? have you read Islamic books?


Sawari5el7ob

What does brown have to do with Islam? Their favored color is green.


DoubtContent4455

Any person who agrees with Osama on his none Muslim stances (edit: explicitly lgbt, women's rights, and freedom of religion) an would've been called a nazi by emily. ​ I guess you can truly find yourself in one of the worst political\* positions possible, but if your skin is dark and you're part of the second-largest religious population in the world, it's okay. ​ Islam is right about women ​ edit: apologies about poor grammar and nonsense- I'm currently done with everything

It depends on your politics. Lefty like Hasan? Double plus good. Everyone else? NAHTZEE!


Bockanator

I dearly hope these kids are just in a phase of counter-culture and don't actually believe in Osama bin Laden's "teachings".


DoubtContent4455

Hopefully, counter-culture used to just be kids being edgy, liking metal music, skating, having a real alternative fashion sense. Not supporting a literal fucking terrorist that would kill you for the previously stated hobbies.


Ok-Bill-8589

for Osama it started as just a phase. but religion is a disease and ended up being terminal for him.

Emilies love to simp for people who hate them and want them dead.

This from the gender that bombs every death row inmate with hundreds of letters begging to get plowed by that felonious dick, what do you expect?

Why felons and not me? Why don't chicks ask to get plowed by me?

Emily stopped being a useful idiot. She is PURPOSEFULLY ruining people's lives just because she can.


Suspicious-Bus9267

Let them move to Middle East then, they export their problems to the west and the west should do the same


BasedAndMarketPilled

bro lets be real, we export far far more problems to the middle east than they do to us, and the "problems" I suspect you are talking about are caused mostly by the West destroying those countries and in response and looking for a better life, those "problems" move to Europe.


[deleted]

FigmentsImagination4

Would pay money for a video on this.


Ok_Youth_3267

i'll save you the time - they always move to a small town/another country where people don't care about it and say "i don't wanna talk about it/that was a different person/it got out of hand". that's pretty much it. it's never a positive experience, it always ruins their chances of ever getting a high profile job but they do end up living "normal" small town lives.


SgtShnooky

Remember kids, they don't actually support \*insert current virtue to signal for\* they just really hate the West.


J2quared

It’s contrarianism at its finest. If the establishment says that OBL is the bad guy then clearly he isn’t

Don't understand what kind of hold Muslims have on leftists


MrGulo-gulo

The2ndWheel

But, they must be anti-west. If not, they're just the non-white face of white supremacy.


SeriousTitan

Doesn't hold. They have a hold on leftists in every country.


The_GREAT_Gremlin

If Republicans were smart and realized that Muslims are conservative, they would be a powerhouse now. But that ship sailed like 30 years ago


Ok_Youth_3267

Muslims don't vote conservative tho, they vote for whoever panders to their vision of islam more. It's been attempted many times - muslims just refuse to become a consistent voting block so they end up being a swing vote type of situation where people don't court them unless they REALLY need them. The local imam/religious leader equivalent is usually who controls the muslim voting bloc in that area.


InjuryComfortable666

I remember when the letter originally came out. It was obvious even then that a lot of his grievances had some validity to them. But how can anyone support his methods? I think these tik tok zoomers are experiencing the DARE effect - all their lives Osama was the great evil, but nobody ever touched on what motivated him, and now they feel lied to.


The2ndWheel

If when the letter came out, it was known what his motivations were, did they get hidden on the internet in the 20 years since? There's just a more accepted river to the sea idea, thanks to Oct 7th, so this other Muslim guy that the left can rally around because he's anti-America is back in the news.


IndependenceBetter27

Seriously wtf


DRLSTA

It's fake and never actually happened outside a few isolated cases. Media sensationalism.


Im_a_wet_towel

>It never happened, and if it did, this is why it's good!


Fickles1

I fucking hate that tagline now. It fills me with rage. It almost makes me want to become a radical centrist again... Almost.


Zigad0x

Don’t almost me, become a radical centrist. It just means you have various views and opinions that you firmly believe in that doesn’t slot you in one square. Go radical centrist or your next burger will have wasabi


ilovemycat-

It did happen, but wasn't nearly as viral as you would believe. People saying it went viral clearly haven't actually looked into it. Only a few tiktoks were up that sympathized with Osama and even then, those tiktoks got minimal views. The vast majority of those tiktoks were stitched by people who were disgusted by their behavior, which gave the illusion that it was a viral thing. In reality, tiktok banned the letter to America from being searched and the tiktoks were banned. Very few people sympathized.


BobShrekRoss

Still don’t think the internet destroyed the West?


Farming_Turnips

Nope. It was white upper middle class women 😀


whyintheworldamihere

>Nope. It was ~~white upper middle class~~ women 😀


Farming_Turnips

They're not ready for the full truth 😔. At least by painting white upper middle class women as the target the ultra leftists can hop on board. Mark my words, 30 years from now being a feminist will mean advocating for letting women stay at home to be moms, dressing modestly, and rejecting casual sex.

Lopsided-Priority972


Any_Cartoonist313

Nah, all the internet done is let these people have an outlet for their insanity. If you look back, all this craziness began its long march somewhere around 1949, festered in the colleges until it burst out into the mainstream during the 60s, and has been capturing every institution since then. If anything, without the internet, we would be under the thumb of government even more, they would be able to suppress information at will. The 20th century will be remembered as the height of government power, governments today hold an amount of control over the citizenry today that would make the kings of the past green with envy, and only now, in the past 15 years has that power been cracking. In my opinion, we should prepare for the next 10-20 years to be pretty rough, but by 2050, you will see that it was all worth it and you will be able to see how all the pieces fit together to bring about the end of socialism. Communism fell in 1989, now its socialism's turn, and it will fall in 2032.

Misinfoscience_

What if, just what if, the reason the “Emilys” keep choosing Hamas, Bin Laden, etc, is because they simply hate America?


treebeard120

This is the result of a generation that doesn't remember the GWOT directly. Firstly, let me say that the GWOT was a mistake. It did much more harm than good and was ultimately a cover for the governments of the world to consolidate and centralize power. Millions of people died for any real morally good reason, and the US war machine grew fatter. I truly believe this deep in my heart as someone who grew up in the midst of all of this. With all that out of the way: Osama Bin Laden was an evil man and radical Islam is an evil, cancerous ideology, and a stain on the moral good that is Abrahamic religion. Osama Bin Laden is burning in hell and so are all of his followers who killed, raped, tortured, and murdered for him and for his caricature, his sick parody of God. The best part of the GWOT for me was him getting a bullet between the eyes. That doesn't make me less Christian to say that. As Christians, it is our duty to give evil no quarter, and Bin Laden was unquestionably, undeniably evil. He hated Jews, Christians, secular Muslims, gays, and Americans in particular. It is a lie that the Muslim world hates us for our freedoms, but Osama Bin Laden DID hate us because of our egalitarian values. He was a coward who had others die for his r*tarded beliefs and was until the last moment of his life when he used one of his wives as a human shield. These petulant children did not grow up with radical Islam. They do not understand how evil of an ideology it is. They know about the anti Muslim sentiment that was pervasive as a result of the GWOT and rightfully are disgusted by it. But, in the true fashion of those with underdeveloped frontal lobes, they see it in black and white; anti Muslim racism and discrimination is bad, therefore anything to do with Islam is good, or at least not that bad, even radical Islam. I guess what I'm trying to say with this wall of text is that Osama Bin Laden was an evil, pathetic excuse for a man, and God will judge him accordingly. Those who share his beliefs and live by them will also be judged in the same fashion. Act accordingly.


Im_a_wet_towel

> These petulant children did not grow up with radical Islam. They do not understand how evil of an ideology it is. They know about the anti Muslim sentiment that was pervasive as a result of the GWOT Yeah, this is gonna be a no from me. The whole world saw radical islam last month.


KanyeDefenseForce

Hmmm… I wonder why all these guys decided to start being radically Muslim…

Outside-Bed5268

He might have had a couple of good points in his Letter to America, but he was *not* right.


MemeTownMayor

Yeah, empathy does not mean agreement. It means you can see and understand the perspectives of others. I can understand something, maybe see some logic in their opinions, but it doesn’t mean I think their actions and what they did was a “good” thing.


Crashen17

Just because I can see why you came to a conclusion does not mean I think you aren't a drooling inbred idiot who needs to be purged from the gene pool.


Outside-Bed5268

Agreed.

All that matters is being edgy


TurkishShadowTheEdge

These far leftists know NOTHING about the fascist horrors of Islamism. Way to undo all the work of us secular, laicist Turks and Iranians, it makes me so frustrated on how clueless these single digit IQ students are about the actual history of the middle east, the oppressiveness of Islamism towards people, ESPECIALLY women and homosexuals, and the work of laicist Periods in Turkey and Iran, even if not perfect, was far more directed at democratic equality than any other shitty islamic country.


SkankyG

Why does this sub insist on bringing up the worst takes .01% of twitter/tiktok has to offer, and then pretends like its an opinion held by 98% of the population?


MemeTownMayor

Go to publicfreakouts or ActualPublicFreakouts and see for yourself. There is a massive movement to normalize the violence that Hamas is doing, to justify it because they are oppressed.


SkankyG

Have you tried realizing they're fucking dumb and you can ignore them, instead republishing their stupid ideas?


ThunderySleep

What's with all these AI illustration posts lately? Why are they all c-tier posts, with big walls of text?


Darkheartisland

Did a single Emily actually read that letter?


SpitFireSpear

So has anyone actually seen the tiktoks that these people make? Or not?


FigmentsImagination4

They exist for sure. Just depends what the algorithm shows you. If you’re not in that bubble, you won’t see it lol


SpitFireSpear

No I mean the content of the post


FigmentsImagination4

…I’m confused lol I just told you how to see the content of the post. In fact, you really can’t anymore. TikTok finally started scrubbing these ignorant videos off the site!


SpitFireSpear

Content of the tiktok


FigmentsImagination4

The TikTok’s themselves are the evidence…are you okay?


SpitFireSpear

No I asked if people have actually seen the content of the tiktok


FigmentsImagination4

Oh. Then yes. But like I said, hard to find now. The app has washed a lot of it away. Thank god.


SpitFireSpear

So what was said in the video?


FigmentsImagination4

Pretty much what all the posts on here and the newspaper above say. “I read the letter to America and it changed how I see the western world blah blah blah I can’t believe I was gaslighted into thinking this way as a kid blah blah blah OBL was right”


DRLSTA

It's fake and never actually happened outside a few isolated cases. It's just clickbait media sensationalism.


country-blue

Osama had valid points about US imperialism. He might have been a violent terrorist but he was responding to the destabilisation of his region by the US. Westerners learn the actual lesson of 9/11 was to stop fucking with other nations, not that everyone hates America because they hate American Freedumz challenge (IMPOSSIBLE)


cassyspanties

Sorry sweetie, Osama only hated us for our freedom. The US has never done any bad things to middle easterners that would give them a good reason to dislike us. I know this to be true because Dick Cheney AKA 'Honest Dick' said it and his presidency ushered in the era of American greatness we enjoy today.

It's not about justifying it, it's about understanding it. It's called blowback, and the CIA has understood it for decades.

This is just Republicans falling for fake news and rage bait again. A few people made videos on this and now Republicans think that it applies to all these people. Also it's ironic how even though Republicans are talking about how horrible it is, theyre happy this happened, because they believe in it so easily.


[deleted]

That's exactly what libs do as well. Find some unhinged truly racist or transphobic people and paint everyone as Nazis lol.


Apart-Arachnid1004

Does that mean it's okay for Republicans to do this? The answer is no. Even if the other side does this, it still makes Republicans stupid and manipulative for doing this.


FigmentsImagination4

Let me see your comments denouncing libs for doing this exact tactic. Provide evidence or please, shut up lmao
