Islamophobia in the Conservative Party
- Thread starter Leto
- Start date
I hate the term islamophobia". It suggests that such people are suffering from a mental diease or psychological problems.
We should call it out for what it is, Racism or Religious hatred.
So you call people racist for hating certain aspects of Islam, eg FGM clinics in the UK, antisemitism, persecution of gays i could go on and on. That doesn't make somebody racist as Islam is not a race.
Just as people on here call people that go to church 'nutjobs' for believing in God.

I’d like them a lot more if they were anti every religion to be quite honest.

Strangely enough, it is possible for two things to happen at the same time that are nothing to do with each other.So...
Another thread to distract from the shockingly bad anti-Semitism that is engrained within the Labour party that is supposedly 'for the many and not the few'.
Laughable.

There's undoubtedly antisemitic and anti-Islamic views in the Tory party. But what matters is not so much that they exist but how people who express such views are dealth with by the various parties. That's the test.
