Not going to lie, there are some holes in the metaphor.

That's not what I'm saying. I'm saying governments could force MS, Google, Apple to implement content filtering tools at the OS level, that give users the choice to set up filtering however they want for themselves or their kids.

We peaked at IRC. Those days were magical.

Right. But what do you think of her new hair?

The hadith is secondary commentary. It is supposed to be considered (in its historic and underlying Quranic context), rather than followed. As a third party, what can we conclude from reading it in isolation without any real world evidence or reference to the actual Muslim people giving it that consideration? Nothing beyond speculation.

Dick pills and Fleshlights forever!

My point was that it was a "hadith" quote, as opposed to being from the Quran. Muslims frequently ignore hadith or give them such a wide interpretation as to give them negligible relevance. To simply infer the active beliefs of real Muslim people, or any religious group, from literal interpretations of cherry picked passages of secondary religious texts is ignorant nonsense. (Especially in 2025 when can just ask them directly over a round of Fortnite.)

Even when considering the antichrist stories (which appear in the New Testament), core principles in the Quran state that "believing" Jews, Christians and Muslims (and maybe even unlabelled monotheists) will be rewarded by God (2:62), and warns Muslims against trying to judge or assume "belief" in others (49:12, 4:94). This message also appears throughout the teachings of Jesus (e.g. Matthew 7:1-5), who Muslims consider to be a prophet of God.

Even if we carefully and collectively decide to determine a group as "bad". We can, and arguably should, do that without recourse to religious prophecy. For example, if we collectively decide (e.g. UN, ICJ, ICC) that the group is carrying out an ethnic cleansing or genocide, based on real world evidence, interpreting a hadith prophecy to support that doesn't add weight in any objective sense.

It's also starting to get really obvious isn't it? I mean, you really have to be provincial. I'm actually thinking of moving to the country and trying bigotry for a bit myself. You know, before we've missed it completely. It's just that there's a really good shawarma place round the corner from us here.

There's some weird looking Haredi Jews waving their arms and blabbering something about Materialism in that 18 percent.

If the Germans could determine whether someone was Jewish, I'm sure there must be several perfectly reasonable and objective ways of doing it.

How do they gatekeep who can be Jewish?

A PS3 with Evilnat custom firmware is truly a thing of beauty. A great era for videogame creativity and experimentation, when F2P was just a twinkle in Tim Sweeney's eye.
