Comment on 'Alarming': 9-year-old girl attacked at school for 'not being Muslim' | WND | by Bob Unruh

Which is another reason why using prevalence of violence is a dumb argument to take here, because white supremacy has historically been such a huge threat to so many people that I can’t believe you’d actually try and make that point.
Also congratulations, you’re taking the side of white supremacy 👏

History of being a threat does not make something a threat now. The black plague is not a huge threat now.
I’ve never made that claim, you’re getting confused with the straw man you keep trying to set up. As I’ve said multiple times, but it apparently hasn’t sunk in, the comparison to Muslim extremism was only to say both are rare, and are used to control idiots.
Never took their side, just said their misdeeds are given publicity to scare morons into thinking they are a huge threat.

Did you just compare systemic racism to the black plague? Another apples and oranges comparison. The main difference between the two is that one is integrated heavily into modern society still, and remains an active, massive influence on the lives of innocent beyond just fatalities, and the other ended in 1353.
We’ve both already agreed they’re rare I don’t know why you keep bringing that up like I’ve been ignoring it. I flat out acknowledged it in a recent comment. That’s still not a useful point to make in this discussion.
You are effectively taking the side of white supremacists even trying to suggest that they’re in some way equal to Muslims. One again to make the comparison you are trying to make, you must be able to show that there are such things as white supremacists who are not racists, because there are Muslims that are not violent or extreme in their beliefs.

Both were prevalent in the past and are not now.
Care to provide any evidence white supremacy is integrated heavily into modern society, has a massive influence on the lives of the innocent?
How can something that is rare be “integrated heavily into modern society still, and remains an active, massive influence on the lives of innocent beyond just fatalities”?
I’ve never suggested white supremists are equal to Muslims, this is the straw man you keep pushing. I used the term radical Muslims, you even acknowledged it. Your gotcha moment isn’t there Colombo.

Just because you don’t experience systemic racism on a day-to-day basis doesn’t mean it isn’t prevalent. Your privilege is showing.
POC get statistically higher rates on loans, lower pay, and inferior healthcare, especially women.
Dude, you’re the one that first tried to compare the two, go back and read your first comment in this thread if you don’t believe me.
