    This is hilarious, my local Imam literally sounded like a white boomer a few Fridays ago. The entire Khutbah was "stay on your grind! There' are black business owners, so systemic racism isn't a thing! The police are mostly good, in fact, we need more Muslim police! Rioting is never justified, imagine if your dad's private medical practice got looted!" It's like, yeah imagine if the rioters had a totally different set of material conditions, then their actions would suddenly be illogical. He then had the audacity to quote Malcolm X. It's hilarious to see how Muslims are talked about in domestic US politics, as though they are not subject to the same sort of class oriented biases as literally any other group of people.

      It's been a while since I went to a mosque (I only went back when I had a muslim SO, and then only rarely), but from what I remember it's basically 1:1 attending church in my small ass hometown, except replace boring readings of archaic translations of the bible with bad arabic singing of the quran. That and shoe theft. That's the muslim crime wave, shoes stolen at mosque.

      Various aspects leak out of their media's various orifices, and then churn around on facebook until some bizarre gestalt emerges as The Common Knowledge

      Billionaire/Russian funding of fringe media that gives a footing for greater logical leaps. Crazies who say this shit have been around forever. But people who nod in agreement are a new phenomenon.

    Can I still wage jihad against the police if I'm not Muslim or do I have to convert before I get my ak and mujahedeen membership card?

    It wasn't a call to jihad, it was a celebration of antifa martyrs:

    TEHRAN, October 10 (MNA) – Joe Biden, antifa's deputy secretary-general, says the Zionist Trump regime is fully aware of antifa's ability for responding any probable aggression.

    In an interview with OTV, he noted coronavirus pandemic has put the Trump regime in difficulties as it did so to Lebanon but police know that antifa will give a harsh response to any aggression even under the outbreak of the virus. He said law enforcement hostile activities against Portland are not restricted to coronavirus pandemic. "If Trump wants war, we are in ambush," he said, "We can confront them as we did so in 2008." Answering a question about the messages the police transmit for antifa in Portland he said, "they have their own messages and we have ours but in case one from antifa is targeted in Portland, we will give a response, for sure."

    Addressing the US pressures on the elections in the US, Biden said everyone knows that the elections are popular, free, and democratic. "Antifa is legally present in the government and the senate of the US" he underlined. "Antifa does not agree with early elections," he said, "It is better for everyone to give a chance to the incumbent technocratic government." He also noted that antifa decides and acts upon the interests of the US and is not a subordinate to Iran but Iran will benefit from antifa's combat with the Zionist regime and there is nothing bad in that.
