Outrage as Swedish TV Cuts Word 'Islam' From Saudi Refugee Girl Story

Rahaf Mohammed, an ex-Muslim who recently gained refugee status in Canada (and has faced violent threats from people online as well as her own family back in Saudi Arabia) told her story recently.  Swedish state media "SVT Aktuellt" censored "Islam" and "haraam" from the Swedish translation of the interview, so as to not upset some un-named group who may become violent and start blowing things up if they so much as hear any criticism about their religion.

Below is a link to the story:

But I have to say that in the West, a much larger problem than Islam is Western Islam enablers and promoters who shut down anyone who dares speak the truth.  If we kept the Muslims in the West but just kicked out all of these people (they can live in Saudi Arabia), things would be far better.  It is the rot from within modern-day Western societies that is the greatest threat.

On to another point, regarding "propaganda".  This story is from Sputnik News, a Russian state-sponsored news outlet.  The other main article on this story is from the Alex-Jones-owned InfoWars.  YET...the story is true.  It actually happened.  Here is a link to a Swedish article:
https://samnytt.se/svt-censurerade-intervju-med-utsatt-kvinna-tog-bort-islam-i-oversattningen/

What does this say?  It says that many people have no idea what propaganda is.  EVERYTHING has a slant.  Some things are false, and you have to recognize that by doing a bit more research for yourself.  But most people think that "Russian" media or "InfoWars", in themselves, are "propaganda", but mainstream American or Swedish or British news sources are somehow not.  If you believe this, then the propaganda has truly gotten a hold of you.  "Voice of America" is a state-sponsored US news agency that broadcast to people of the Soviet Union and other communist states.  Was it propaganda?  Sure.  AS IS EVERYTHING.  The question is, was it MORE propaganda than the "news" from domestic sources within the USSR?  No.  I doubt it.  Getting information (even if biased towards US policy) was INCREDIBLY IMPORTANT to people living in the Soviet Union if they wanted to learn more about the world and get another side of the story (or a story at all, which was covered up domestically!).  News coverage from governments that do not agree with your own country's government is SO IMPORTANT.  Of course, if you take everything they say as the unfiltered truth, with no motives behind it, then you are just as much an idiot as if you believe your own domestic media.  What I am saying is that Western media, outside of the "fake news" outlets, has been hiding stuff from us, and continues to hide any story that does not agree with their narrative, and which is not so large as to be impossible to cover up.  And when they do cover a topic that is unsavory to them, they will warp it to the point where it can no longer be recognized.

If I share a story from Sputnik or RT or Xinhua or InfoWars or Breitbart...or Al Jazeera, for that matter...do NOT criticize me for linking to that story, which may in fact be the best-written version of the story with the most information.  Rather, criticize me if you find out that what I shared isn't true.  At least do that much research to see if the article is correct before you criticize me for simply posting it.  And if it does turn out to be correct, then your next step is to criticize other outlets for covering up or barely touching the story at all.

Sokal-style hoaxes work for religious postmodernists, but (post) modernism is the real hoax Modernism in art and architecture, and postmodernism in philosophy are, like religion, insults to human intelligence.  Unfortunately, many people fall for their hollow propaganda. The "Sokal Affair" was a hoax whereby a man called Alan Sokal submitted a postmodern-sounding article to a postmodern journal.  It turns out that the English you hear isn't just unintelligible to you, but it's unintelligible to the people at the journal as well.  But if it's unintelligible, it must be profound, right?  The journal quickly accepted it, not knowing that it was all fake B.S.  They then got embarrassed when they were told that it was pompous-sounding drivel. Religion has done the same thing.  When people can't understand something, they generally think it's much more profound than if they can understand it.  If a priest speaks Latin, wears some weird costume, and sp...

The Islamic State has beheaded at least 21 Christians in Libya.

Whenever a Muslim brings up the Crusades, I have to laugh to myself.  Christians have done horrible things, including in later crusades against Constantinople and the Cathars in particular.  However, get this.  The Islamic State militants said, "Safety for you crusaders is something you can only wish for" right before butchering Egyptian Christians. It seems that many Muslims haven't taken a single history class.  If they had, they would have known that Christians existed in Egypt for 400 years before Islam.  (Heck, they were even around to murder Hypatia, perhaps the last major ancient female philosopher.)  It was the Muslims who were the "Crusaders"...yet almost nobody will admit to this.  Muslims instigated a merciless war against Christian Egyptians until they were overcome and under Islamic domination.  They did this to people across the world, from Spain to India...massacring any who resisted.  They tried to destroy the Byzaintine Em...
Fighting Klanophobia I'm always hurt when I see bigots offend groups of people.  All too often, people paint a group, "the other" with a broad brush and stereotype them as being evil, even though the crimes that are associated with them are only committed by a tiny minority fringe element within the larger group. Such is the case with the Ku Klux Klan.  Most people don't like to associate with them.  There is a lot of prejudice directed towards that group, particularly among blacks and Jews, but this hate is widespread.  If you see a klansman wearing his cultural garb, how do you feel?  Do you become nervous?  Do you think that he'll do something violent?  If so, you're part of the problem. The KKK is an organization of peace.  Most of its members are peaceful and only want to go about their lives without being harmed...like most people in this world.  Sure, there are a few members who preach hate, but that's true in almost every grou...
