    Speaking like a normal person and not a salesman is probably helping him quite a lot.

    I am outraged by that bone-petite. Which bone is petite? Why does their bacon have bones?!

    The bone - petit is just peak American insult right there; When you’re so dumb that you can’t even do your insults right.

          Same energy as baptists. I had a lutheran teacher who would wear a shirt sometimes that read, “Always bring two baptists on your fishing boat, otherwise one will drink all your beer!”

          It really depends how strict/observant they are. I had a friend who half-arsed it and did drink alcohol on occasion. He was horrified to discover that beers often use pork fat as an anticoagulant (despite the fact beer is also haram).

          One of my favourite childhood food memories was my (jewish) grandmothers roast pork. It’s been 20 years since I last had it and I still haven’t had crackling that good.

      But it’s something racists do. You are technically correct, the best kind of correct.

    A simple two-word reply would ruin these racists without needing to visit the shops: “Happy holidays!”

        Jim Kirk and Toxic Cowboy of course, not really sure how else would people understand it? Is that why all the down votes, do people think that Im talking about Mamdani? Lol

          the main poster is mamdani, so yeah, going by your downvotes. i had a feeling you meant the other two though so I wanted to ask. but it’s safe to assume the use of the r word and subsequently pointing it out didn’t help.

            Fair enough, and thanks for directly asking ,maybe I should have been more specific in while making my point 😊 the r word though, no regrets there.

    I’m remembering a paragraph of one of the Witcher books where a vampire is at a fancy ball at a royal court and while eating a garlic soup with his silver spoon he was explaining in great detail to a patron seated near him that vampires are deathly afraid of silver and the slightest touch of silver will immediately kill them

    At least he’s not saying “death to all Muslims!” (or actually killing them)… this sort of silliness can be more easily addressed and resolved, I guess. Silver linings!

        I’d like to believe he won’t go down the path of “murderous bigotry”, or hasn’t yet and can be brought back to sanity, but maybe I’m too hopeful, idk.

    This isn’t racism. Religious bigotry for sure but racism doesn’t apply when there are people of all races that are muslim.

      Chances are that the guys who posted this ARE racists though. So while this might not be racism, the comment still stands: these racists are embarrassing.

        It isn’t about race. Its about religion. Not knowing racism from bigotry is truly the hallmarks of a moron.

      I think the point is that this trash thinks it’s racism even though it’s not. They want it to be racism because fuck brown people.

      oh my god yes it is. i love it when people pretend that racist motherfuckers have nuanced takes like that. no it is racist, they don’t know the difference, they don’t even know what being muslim even entails, and they don’t attack white muslims, or all kinds of other religions for a reason. they hate brown people.
