The racism of never criticising Muslims

07/07/2021

Anti-Muslim bigotry is the belief among certain racist activists that Muslims are the cause of Britain's ills, dragging the nation down into the cesspit of sharia and stupidity. But the refusal of the identitarian set to speak honestly about the Muslim community is a variant of anti-Muslim bigotry too, given that it is motored by a belief that any discussion of Muslim anti-Semitism or Islamic terrorism is by definition offensive to Muslims (what - all Muslims are racists and terrorists?), and given that it is underpinned by a hyper-paternliastic desire to protect Muslims from difficult discussion, as if they were infants and we white, woke, well-educated lefists are the adults. Spare me such racial patricianism.
