Ex-Muslims & Trump: Who Makes The Babies, Matters

It’s par for the course of leftists and some socially-liberal business-Republicans, to give Islam a pass.

By some estimates Trump is a RINO, Republican in name only. Trump is the head of the Republican Party now though, and thus his Republicanism is what that party is, for now.

Why was ex-Muslim cartoonist Bosch Fawstin banned on twitter? Because the cultural left gloms onto Islam. Why did Google delete 14 years of Bosch’s blog posts? Same answer. Bosch was very critical of Trump before his election:

After Trump was elected Bosch sometimes approved of Trump and sometimes didn’t. The main thing that sticks in Bosch’s craw is when any politician throws the life experiences of ex-Muslims under the bus.

Obama did this in spades with his evil anti freedom UN speech:

https://reason.com/2012/09/25/president-obama-says-we-must-condemn-tho/

Trump did it to a lesser extent as per Bosch’s criticisms.

All things considered I’m still very grateful Trump ran and I think it’s essential he win again.

The current Democrats are not the party of my father or of his father.

Gov job pay to play whoring.

Worse than Watergate spying on political opponents.

It’s all a Democrat thing.

To me Trump embodies the working class values of my old style Democrat father.

Pro native-born working class Americans of all colors, including pro gay marriage (which I am not), and pro Bruce Jenner style denialist tranny (which I am not).  Pro vocational education (which I am). Anti to worthless general-ed higher ed. < -Trump is all this.

The main idiocy of Trump is that he had and has Obama admin holdovers who undermined his admin.

The Pee Dossier. The Flynn case. Abuse of the FISA Court by Obama admin holdovers. A modern coup. Trump should have booted many more Obama-admin traitors.

Anyway so love the bull in the china shop Trump or hate him, or both.

Fawstin is fiercely pro free speech, and for him Trump should appreciate the plight of ex-Muslims like him more.

Pat Condell is a British comedian who appreciates Trump. Condell is Very critical of Islam.

Raheem Kassam is a pro Trump de facto Ex-Muslim.

Another cartoonist: The creator of Batman Chuck Dixon, appreciates Trump.

Gay “married” YouTube commentator Dave Rubin appreciates Trump’s pro gay marriage stances and Trump’s boat rocking approach which blocked far worse Democrat alternatives.

More small L libertarians who supported Trump:

2. https://jonathanshome.blogspot.com/2016/10/the-problems-with-hillary-clinton.html

Thus as I listen to the media especially the legacy flavor, I hear how the wanted so badly gov job pay to play whore and rape enabler Hillary.

NPR. BBC. NYTimes. The Guardian. GQ. Vogue. CNN. MSNBC. NBC. CBS. ABC. PBS Newshour regulars. All wanted Hillary. All hated Trump very tribalistically.

Why? Why Tribalism in favor of a Democrat-Crony-Sociopath status quo?

Religion shows how human tribalism can sometimes go off the rails. Political tribalism can too.

But as for Trump, I appreciate the words of Stephen Bannon: https://youtu.be/8AtOw-xyMo8 ...at Oxford.

Why does the cultural left love Islam? In my view because the left tossed the evolved morality couched within Christianity.

Nature abhors a vacuum.

Who makes babies? It matters. And evolution with selection doesn’t care about the feelings of secularists either.

When a culture stops having babies, it becomes broken. The folly of the secular left is not realizing that religion is an evolutionary process itself, one which couches darn useful (and sometimes less useful, out-group) evolved morality.

Leftist political leaders seek to import mass numbers of third world regressives to make babies on their behalf.

Thus in my view we should seek to understand the natural evolutionary underpinnings of all actions.

The U.S. Constitution didn't come from the Bible. Rather it came as a direct result of The Reformation & The Enlightenment.

On the back of Modified and Enlightened and Evolved Christian tradition.

So not directly from the Bible, but it was done by children raised within the general European Christian tradition that's true.

When I examine who on the social & political landscape supports a.) the freedom to draw Mohamed, and b.) the publishing of such cartoons, the list is very small: Libertarians who're mostly conservative, and a few very (very) lonely leftists.

When Obama states that his preferred future belongs to people who never talk smack about Mohamed or the prophets of other religions, he's turning his back on the principles of The Enlightenment, principles which allowed America and it's Constitution to exist in the first place. He's also turning his back on all the people who want to (f-ing) leave abusive cults like Islam (& Mormonism & other highly abusive religions).

So, it's true that ex-Muslims / atheists who pop up, rather naturally these days, within Islamic theocracies are little gems who should be valued & protected. They exist & live within countries which are essentially meat grinders, grinding against all opposition to the status quo.

Here's a special vid of an atheist visiting Mecca:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SQ5x0vAEaCw

I'm sure that Obama would be upset by such a vid, as per his past comments about the supposed strong need to never offend a devout cult member.

Before 9/11 I had mostly zero idea what Islam was about. After 9/11 I woke up & realized that people in Islamic countries sometimes find their lives to be so shitty that they lash out in unhinged ways - misdirected anger. The 9/11 attacks were performed by men who were angry - but they should have been angry at their religion rather than at 3000+ innocent people in those towers.

The Enlightenment human tradition is a unique one, and one that should be valued. Freedom of speech. Freedom of thought. Freedom of religion. Freedom from religion. Freedom of commerce (mostly). Governmental transparency (hopeful). Freedom for science to progress. Freedom for science to question traditional religious dogmas & doctrines regarding literalist interpretations of a god. When leftists like Glenn Greenwald and Noam Chomsky (& many other 'regressive' leftists) blame America first for all that is wrong with the Middle East, they're also turning their backs on the Enlightenment tradition which allows them to speak & exist in the first place.

Mr. Greenwald is gay for example. If he lived in an Islamic theocracy he'd be suppressed at the very least or killed at worst.

The cold war abuses of America are not responsible for every single thing that ails the world. Religious theocracy, that of a specific religion, is largely to blame. And yes, it's a religion - that is Islam is a religion.

Before 9/11 I sat in my little ex-Mormon chamber and just thought about ex-Mormon things. I knew Joseph Smith was a charismatic charlatan. I know Brigham Young was an abusive authoritarian theocratic bozo. I relished the works of people like Monty Python with their general criticism of Christianity (eg: Life of Brian), and of Mormon specific humorist organizers like Steve Clark (operator of Latter-Day Lampoon now renamed The Salamander Society).

Consider what Muslim versions of the following works of art would look like?

Life of Brian:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monty_Python's_Life_of_Brian

Latter-Day Lampoon (aka Salamander Society):
http://salamandersociety.com/

Would Obama approve?

How about your average MSNBC & CBC & BBC presenter?

So I was raised in an itty-bitty religion which has as it's key tenant a required cult of personality revolving around this guy named Joseph Smith. Then when I got older I wised up & left that religion.

That whole experience provided greater insight into the entirely of the situation with Islam, it's followers, and those who want to leave it and be free of it.

And some people stay in to varying degrees, or are just 'marginally' in:

Maajid Nawaz:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maajid_Nawaz

Tawfik Hamid:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pxfo11A7XuA

Maajid is considered an 'Uncle Tom' by hijab-loving Muslims though. And Tawfik is a former hard line Muslim w/key info re how Sunni flavor Islam prompts young men within it to consider getting virgins in paradise via suicide as a viable option for sexual expression (check the vid linked to above).

Charlie Hebdo was mostly killed off, and it's remaining members have given up publishing drawings of the prophet of Islam. So Obama's preferred future has been fulfilled re Hebdo. Hebdo was and is an ultra-leftist publication, but one which was 'very lonely' on the left - lonely like Bill Maher is, and lonely like Sam Harris is, and like Salman Rushdie is. Lonely leftists who could never get a Mohamed cartoon published in any mainline leftie publication if they tried.

In any case, I was raised an American Democrat. Now I'm a general middle of the roader. A moderate Republican/Libertarian, or a very very blue dog Democrat. But as per the response of the left to Hebdo (the murder of the artists) & Garland (Garland, Texas cartoon contest attempted to be shot up by Islamic adherents) though I'm a bit loath to refer myself as a Democrat at all. The response of the left to those events shows that the left, as it stands today, as nothing to offer people who want to a.) leave Islam, or b.) criticize Islam exactly the same way we've been criticizing Christianity for hundreds of years.

Also America isn't a full democracy. It's a republic. A representative democracy. There republicanism helps to quell craziness & chaos & stupidity which can come from 'full democracy.'

When 'democracy' came to the Islamic middle east, the secularists were mostly drowned out by the thoecrats (so far).

Where in an Islamic 'democracy' is one free to draw Mohamed? Nowhere? Then the principles of the Enlightenment are not being fully engaged. Freedom of speech. Freedom of though. Freedom of religion. Freedom from religion. Freedom for science to examine & critique literalist religious claims which touch upon the physical world. And so on.

There's slight bright spots here & there. Example:
http://www.breitbart.com/national-security/2015/12/30/egypt-president-calls-for-islamic-reform-again-in-muhammad-birthday-speech/
http://www.clarionproject.org/videos/egypts-president-el-sisi-calls-islamic-reformation

But in which Islamic country can one be an atheist openly? Criticize Mohamed? Draw Mohamed? Lampoon Mohamed - EXACTLY the way Monty Python did regarding Anglican Christianity? Nowhere yet.

But some ex-Muslims (and friends) somewhere shall do this someday soon I hope (parody Islam in total Life of Brian style & more).

Anyway I've come to conclude that, as per Daniel Dennett's "dangerous" idea regarding religion being a natural phenomenon, religion is so damn natural that two or more atheists gathered in the name of their favorite social or political agenda cannot help but form a de facto one.

Charismatic charlatans come in all shapes and sizes. When our favorite "prophet" is on our side of the political spectrum we're more ready to dismiss their flaws. For example when Clinton was in office I personally wrote to the White House expressing my support during their trials & tribulations. However I now see that I was hoodwinked, just like I was hoodwinked about Joseph Smith.

Why are the rape crimes of Bill Clinton given a pass while the probably-natural activities of Catholic Priests & other pedophiles are not? Just because something is 'natural' doesn't mean it should be valued. Sociopathy and psychopathy are natural too, natural abusive outlier activities that is.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Naturalistic_fallacy
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Appeal_to_nature

Recoverers from religion have a hard time seeing value in fully natural & fully evolved human morality which says "no" to certain activities. Why did fully natural religions/cultures evolve moral codes of conduct? For fully natural reasons.

So how "conservative" should we be? It's a balancing act. An evolution if you will. And we aren't the first people to deal with the tension between letting it all hang out, and hanging people for doing so. Somewhere in between those two extremes lies human happiness & human thriving.

Islam & Mormonism are too conservative.

60s/70s SanFran-Glory-Hole-style liberalism is probably too permissive.

Humans aren't Bonobos. Shame regarding certain otherwise destructive activities exists for some reasonable evolutionary reasons. Moral codes of conduct evolved as counterweights to proclivities which can be destructive.
