People shit on Christianity all the time and it’s not like anyone at least here bats an eye. But when it’s Islam it’s “all religions are bad”. People are a bit more careful with Islam lol
I guess it’s in part because it’s hard to distinguish if the negative attitude toward Islam is racism or just against the religion. Christianity is viewed as white – at least that’s the impression I get – so that distinction doesn’t exist. It is interesting to see how the two are handled so differently

Yep, they are afraid of violent fundamentalists but also of liberals trying to cancel them…

no comment about “all religions are cancer”
because Christianity is treated like normal rather than a religion
