Greatest rise in anti-Muslim hate in UK since Hamas's attack on 7 October

Incidents included verbal threats, online abuse and in one instance, a Muslim family had the word "Hamas" written on their front door, a UK-based organisation has said.

In theory.

I'd like to know how my post contravened any guidelines, unless it was deliberately misinterpreted.

You can ask mnhq. I reported one of them as I found one of your sentences offensive

It doesn't surprise me that you find my posts offensive. I am sorry about that, but I really do not think I have contravened any talk guidelines.

Why me specifically?

PeasfullPerson · 29/04/2024 16:28

@Dibilnik your post reads as though you are justifying hate towards Muslims. It isn’t simply offensive, it is scary.

What about your posts means you aren't surprised that people find them offensive? If you step back and honestly, not defensively, consider that, then you might be able to take some constructive steps towards reflection and change.

As another starting point, something to consider... Imagine a discussion in which Christian people or Jewish people or Hindu people are talking about abuse and discrimination they have experienced. Would you consider it acceptable for someone to enter that discussion by saying "well, it's really not surprising given xyz... people have had enough... you need to get your house in order..."? Personally, I wouldn't consider that to be acceptable for any group to have to experience that sort of thing. Would you?

Looks like all gloves are off and people feel emboldened to scream hate and abuse at each other. We seem to be devolving as a species

Scirocco · 01/05/2024 18:16

There is nothing uglier than a person filled with hate.

You apologise for linking the daily mail but are happy to post anti-semitic tweets?

Scirocco · 06/05/2024 19:34

Add 'Voting while Muslim', 'Speaking (in forrin) while Muslim' and 'Having opinions while Muslim' to the list of things that we shouldn't be doing...

I don’t seem to find anything in the news about this incident but saw it I. The Spanish news

There was a video on Al Jazeera a few days ago if it was the same incident EasterIssland.

Absolutely disgusting behaviour and I'm so pleased he has been charged for publicly assaulting a woman during a protest in Ottawa.

I would have had more respect for him if he’d declared his bias rather than pretending to keep his privacy.

And is there a reason why you’re trying to link Islamist with a thread that is about the hate crime Muslim people are going through and that has spiked since 7-10?

Islamists are Muslims. It doesn’t mean that all Muslims are Islamists, but AFAIK, all Islamists are Muslims.

Glad to see that you have recognised that the Daily Mail is a purveyor of excellent, well reported news and suits you to link to it when it suits your narrative.

I actually did not know this. This is interesting. Please could you explain more about this? Sorry to bother you.

'Islamist' refers to an extreme/extremist movement/ideology which promotes global dominance of their particular (extreme/extremist) interpretation/version of Islam. It is absolutely not mainstream Islam.

One of the best descriptions I’ve read defining Islamist is “Islamism is best described as the desire to put forward an ideological view of Islam, one that is in practice binding not only on the Islamic-world but increasingly on the Western-world too. An Islamist aims to enforce an Islamic ideology upon the political and cultural base of society.”

The vast majority of Muslims want to live peaceful lives and are happy to let others do the same. Islamists want everyone to follow the Islam, and want to punish or persuade with force those who don’t. Islamists want Islam to not only be a religion, but also the social and cultural driver in society.
