So they are trying to argue that Muhammad was more evil than Adolf Hitler, with that clearly rhetorical question, or something? Muhammad may have been evil, but nowhere near the world's most evil.

He did, however, inspire some very nasty people, like Aurangzeb for example. But, equally, you can also say he inspired some much nicer people like Mansa Musa. People interpret Muhammad and the Quran how they want to interpret them, and will be biased.

Um no see this is the part of the left I don't like. The empathy is there, but it still remains that the non violent left of any religion is still using the same books that the violent right is.  I think while you are not wrong, I think we should be pointing out that the religious justifications for either compassion or cruelty are not coming out of the books themselves, but our own evolution, the books are merely excuses to do either.
