https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2023/jun/17/hamtramck-michigan-muslim-council-lgbtq-pride-flags-bannedSalam, it's been a while since I posted here. Anyway, I found an interesting article that I wish to share. Link above.
It starts with;
In 2015, many liberal residents in Hamtramck, Michigan, celebrated as their city attracted international attention for becoming the first in the United States to elect a Muslim-majority city council.
They viewed the power shift and diversity as a symbolic but meaningful rebuke of the Islamophobic rhetoric that was a central theme of then Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump's campaign.
This week many of those same residents watched in dismay as a now fully Muslim and socially conservative city council passed legislation banning Pride flags from being flown on city property that had – like many others being flown around the country – been intended to celebrate the LGBTQ+ communityI can't add anything to this but confirm that God has finally vindicated me.
For ages, western 'liberals' were bedfellows with 'Muslims,' And not just any Muslim, usually the ultrareligious and hardline kind of Muslims. Anybody with common sense knows that Muslims generally don't mix with liberals. Go to all the Muslim-majority countries, and you'll find Muslims voting primarily against liberals.
You know there's a problem when the same Muslims move to the West and begin voting for liberals. Why the sudden shift? Why vote for left-wing liberal parties that champion abortion, gay rights, and normalized pornography? Why not vote for the more traditional and family-oriented right-wing parties who are against these 'vices?'
Well, part of the answer is that conservative Westerners, for all their faults, are more down-to-earth and foresighted people who tend to respect themselves, their history, and their culture. They're not the type to give traditional Muslims free rein to topple churches & build mosques over them or censor people for criticizing Islam or Muslims, or cover their faces in public with niqab masks.
So, the traditional Muslims at first hopped onto the bandwagon with 'liberals' who often praised them and even entertain their BS. And today, these same Muslims elected in the council of Hamtramck Michigan banned LGBT flags. Surprised, anyone? This is just the beginning. And I warned about it for years.
There's no betrayal here. Traditional Muslims see Western liberals as nothing but cheap, disposable, immoral, a pretty dumb and stupid group to be exploited for political gain. Western liberals think that dissing their own culture and fighting some disingenuous war against 'white supremacy,' 'racism,' 'xenophobia,' or 'Islamophobia,' will get them validation of the so-called minorities, whether it's Muslims or Blacks, but they get nothing more than electoral votes.
Once the so-called minorities gain power, they just discard the liberal ideology and follow what suits them, what is more profitable for them. In the Iranian Revolution of the late 70s, liberals were on the side of Ayatollah Khomeini. As soon as Khomeini came to power, he turned his back on them and crushed them.
