Edit: Damn, did not expect this to turn into today’s struggle sesh.

Here’s my both sides/both sides take. Should people be executed for drawing, publishing or showing hateful cartoons? Probably not.

What grosses me out is how Enlightened Secular France has spent centuries colonizing and brutalizing muslims and continues to oppress them with discriminatory laws while acting like the entire point of Free Speech TM is the right to degrade a profoundly marginalized minority.

As someone brought up in this thread, the whole Mohammad cartoon controversy reminds me of the perennial debate “why would a black person get violent if you call them the n-word, it’s just a word.” Context matters, when you purposely provoke an oppressed minority by shoving the thing they find most offensive in their face, you may get a violent reaction.

I don’t think this guy deserves to die at all, but Charlie Hebdo is very racist and it’s gross how people rally around it like it’s this bastion of free speech.

That said, death to A Wyatt Mann. Inshallah.

          Bad take. They went from prosecuting the guy who did the crime to attempting to piss off literally every other muslim as well

            Which has little to do with irony poisoned overly online leftists not being able to realize that a teacher shouldn't be beheaded for teaching.

            if muslim parents want to complain, want to do some action to get him fired because they think he went too far then I'm 100% for hearing their arguments and making a reasonable choice.

            Instead some assholes beheaded the guy. He didn't deserve that, stop implying that he did.

              If your take is "beheading is bad" then what the fuck are you arguing on the internet. Nobody disagrees with you.

              I'm criticizing the action in the post-- the projecting of dumb cartoons in a bizzare, antagonistic stance towards other muslims.

                Beheading is bad, but those racist cartoons though.
