A Muslim mayor of America was inevitable, but the 9/11 attacks brought it forward, forcing, as only conflict can, the the dominant party (the Americans) to acknowledge the humanity of the subaltern (the Muslims they oppress and dehumanise). This will be obvious to history.

Can anyone find any "freedom" applicable to other religions in UK law? Any specific freedom to criticise a given religion?
Or are we all pretending we can't see what's happening?

From the article:
A new definition of Islamophobia being considered by UK ministers is expected to “protect the freedom to criticise Islam”, while helping provide a framework for countering the rise in anti-Muslim hate incidents.... ministers were committed to “protecting people, not religions”

🔴 In the past 24 hours, Gaza’s Health Ministry reported an additional 5 killed (4 of whom were recovered from the rubble) and 4 injured arriving at hospitals.
This brings the recorded death toll from the Israeli genocide in Gaza to 68,234 and 170,373 injuries (likely 3-5x higher)

Lula Da Silva is a former metalworker, unionist, and a founding member of Brazil's "Workers Party". So clearly a leftist if that's actually a thing at all.
But when he permits drilling (like Chavez, Correa, and other socialists) it's actually proof of how morally bankrupt liberals are. Right.
