The OP was a dig at Pakistanis, and you're using this opportunity to express your own bigotry against religious people. No surprises there.
It was a dig at those Pakistanis who crowd into mosques when the scientific consensus is that it's dangerous to do so.
I remain unconvinced that referring to religionists who insist on putting themselves in danger as 'twatwaffles' qualifies as bigotry. We're getting ready to read about those Filipinos who crucify themselves at Easter. These people are twatwaffles. There are plenty of stories about parents who prefer prayer to medical care for their kids. More twatwaffles. You know those snake handlers who get bitten and die? Twatwaffles.
The Pakistanis in the story are no different.

Yeah.
Having trouble seeing that one myself.
I can criticise individuals, groups, or organisations without making it an attack against the whole country they happen to be in.
I think Trump and his cronies, republican, media, and supporters alike are a cancer in the world. That doesn't mean I immediately equate all of the American people with those fuckwits.
I disagree with many of the policies of the Israeli government. That doesn't immediately make me an anti-semite.
Hell, people have been commenting on idiots hoarding supplies, Aussies included. I didn't immediately jump on and say, "fuck you! I have Aussie friends. How dare you attack them, you cunt!"*
They ARE Aussies.
They ARE fuckwits.
*Except to Iggy.
