I agree with you in principle. But I'm also real uncomfortable about it, because there seems to be a fairly high correlation between people who want to be extremely critical of Islam as a religion, and people who are actually racist. And there are people who do that and use criticisms of the religion (which might be reasonable in themselves) as a proxy for tons of other arguments where individual Muslims are bad people, immigration is bad, etc.

So, it's like, I don't know. Fuck, man. What do we even do?

AYRT

Might be easier for me because I'm Arab but I'm an atheist. So I understand your concerns.

But still -- just drawing a picture of Muhammed and making fun of the tenets of a religion isn't racism.

Oh, I absolutely agree. But I think there's a point where fullthroated critique of the religion does cross that line. Or at least, it allows people who are racist to take advantage of it. So there's an impulse for me to strongly disapprove of any instance of it at all, for fear of ultimately giving shelter and comfort to a bunch of racists.

I don't know. I don't have a final opinion here. It's just frustrating and depressing.
