I disagree. It's clearly not for them; as we continue to get pummeled by aggrigious behavior by world leaders it habituates us the be progressively less shocked by the next insult to democracy and human rights. Checking ourselves and putting these individual acts of hate, racism, xenophobia, and fascism in perspective is the one thing we can do to try to push the bar back to where it belongs.

Uh I don't think "praise be to Allah" is an act of hate, racism, xenophobia and fascism, but also if the goal is to "push the bar back to where it belongs" then clearly it's not working. Maybe consider doing something about the hate, racism, xenophobia and fascism?

Are you kidding? You think he meant that in a sincere respectful way?

If so this only proves my point.

I mean obviously not, but either way it's not an act of hate, racism, xenophobia or fascism. It's the whole war crime part that's problematic, is my point.

I guess I could try to explain it further but would need to know what part of hate, racism and xenophobia you don't understand?
