Islam is unique for the religion mandating a government be set up to privilege it.
Fundamentalist Muslims want that government set up worldwide. Moderate Muslims say this lifestyle is for us, but you have the right to live the way you want.
The Almaddhi and Sufi Muslims are the unitarians of the Muslim world. They were the first to move in mass to the West, especially from Pakistan where the Shariah based constitution says “almaddhi is anti-Islamic”. It would be like our Constitution say Quakers are not Christians ... and we can discriminate against non-Christians.
It is that first wave of peaceful, integrationist Muslims 40-50 years ago that explains why the UK thought all Muslims are peaceful and capable of integration.
The problem is that the newest Muslim migrants are poor fundamentalists. In the UK has had Almaddhi Muslims harassed, beaten and at least one killed by the newcomers.
We cannot smear all Muslims as a blanket bad group. Doing so lets the left and Muslims smear all Christians and conservatives with labels, and they have the systematic power to oppress us per their prejudices.
Going after a moderate Muslim doctor because he’s Muslim hurts the party. It makes us look like the blind bigots they already think we are. It tears down a cultural conservative who isn’t our enemy. It wastes energy that could be used dealing with the ballot-harvesting that probably swung Tarrant county blue.
And instead, we get a few on the far-right tearing down the Muslim doctor and undermining the party. They’re our SJWs.
I hear you, but understand the sentiment: For every Ahmadi or Sufi, there are ten Tlaibs or Omars (our new Reps).
