Any time someone says “Muslims always” or “Islam is inherently… ____” return to this basic fact. Not only is that bigotry, the basic reality is that there are so many Muslims on Earth living in so many different places with different cultures that any kind of generalization is at a face level absurd like saying the world is flat.



You can’t criticize all Muslims as a group because they all truly have different ways of interpreting the Quran and some very liberal Muslims may not put much weight into the Quran at all. However I feel very justified when I directly criticize specific passages of the Quran that say stuff like how the witness of 1 man is equal to the witness of 2 women. Or how the Quran says that homosexuality is a serious transgression. The Quran is a heavily homophobic and misogynistic text.
