Are you an Islamophobe?

[Ben Davis]

I'm a left-wing liberal. I don't think these things. Be careful of generalisations

I was mostly kidding, though at least in my country most of the political left is in favour of Islam and banning "hate speech" about Islam. Look Ben, a generalization would be assuming that all left wing liberals are pro being politically correct of Islam, but it isn't if I'm saying that most of them are very defensive of Muslims for being a minority, something that is true. In Europe, left politicians blame Charlie Hebdo on the failure of European governments to integrate Muslims in society. I don't think liberals in AF are a good sample of liberals (left or right wing) because most liberals are really tolerant of religion

I was being a bit tongue-in-cheek too. 'Many a truth spoken in jest' and all that. Sure, there are liberals who hold the position you're claiming but there are plenty who don't. Here in the UK, liberals are generally tolerant of people not ideologies. For example, our political left publically blamed the terrorists and their version of Islam for the CH shootings; even the MCB and ISB did't try to deflect the heat with claims that CH brought it on themselves. In counter-point to that is Sweden's recent legislation banning certain types of criticism of Islam (under the guise of counter-anti-immigration laws).
