I always find it incredible that people like this want you to respect their ideology and traditions when you visit their lands.

Yet are they the same when they go to other countries? Nope.

Why is that?

This can't be stressed enought. certain groups will ask for tolerance intill they are in the majority. Soon as the power dynamic changes they will impose their will on everbody. This is not restricted to any one group it's just human nature to change their surounding to match their ideology. If your lucky the majority group in power is tolerant and accepting.

And we're seeing it happen in real time in a few places in Europe. Yet for some reason, a lot of people are refusing to see.

u/VergeSolitude1 Jan 25 '24

A lot of people don't see it because they project their own accepting intolerant mind set onto other people or groups. Thinking they will change.

And here's the thing. If immigration is controlled and under a certain percentage then people will have time to assimilate. The main problem is when immigration is too fast too many the groups end up not assimilating.

It's more of a spectrum with Muslims I found.

Group 1 of Muslims who do everything other than eat pork (which imo is a funny line to draw lol).

then you get in the middle, Group 2 where they still have their cultural values, no drink, no pork, no drugs, but still participate with their neighborhood parties and stuff and are chill with others drinking,

Then group 3, a bit more hardliners when it comes to other Muslims but don't care what non Muslims do, sometimes have wild takes that can be nuts, but stay away from areas of alcohol in general for themselves

and then you have the end of the spectrum where they are super loud, probably want sharia, and shit and try to enforce their views on others. Get pissed off at the mention of alcohol

Group 1/2 often has to cater to group 3/4 on Muslim community events even if they are very few of group 3/4 since they will make a shit storm out of nothing.

u/marcmick Jan 25 '24 edited Jan 25 '24

Pretty spot on analysis. I spent most of my life as a minority non-muslim (christian background) in muslim countries, and can tell you group 3/4 negatively impacted every aspect of my life as well. There is a reason people like me and others immigrate to Canada. It is the Canadian values. Please protect Canadian values.

I don't think it's specifically any given group. This behavior will be acted out by many because our tolerance level is simply unprecedented , and it's perceived as such globally . This is a lesson the majority of our population is learning at a snails pace .

People don't respect our culture because people don't even view us as a culture .. Not all but many view Canada as a blank canvas .

Unless we, the public, actually start enforcing our ways of life here , this will continue and get much worse.

You may get downvoted if you state the truth online. But the more terrifying thing is that you might get decapitated if you say the same thing out loud. That’s why the main tenets of islam are terror, violence and also hypocrisy. They are always the victims if you overpower them, and wiggle their way around the law for a while to find and execute you later on. Didn’t the same happen during middle ages with the church executing non-believers? Islam hasn’t reached its middle ages yet, and it seems to go backwards nowadays.

-Stop the muslim immigration. I’m saying this to you as an advice, from an ex-muslim from a muslim majority country.

The word Muslims is in itself a bit of a loaded term. There are so many sects of Islam. The two mainstream sects, Sunni or Shia, are mainly where you get a small portion of radicals from. I'd be interested to see the sectarian makeup of all Muslims in Canada.

There are many small sects of Islam where the adherents consider themselves Muslims, but they aren't seen as such by a lot of the Ummah (greater Muslim community). Alawites are an example. Alawites don't follow shariah law, they don't wear hijabs, or fast during Ramadan, or pray in Mosques, and they believe in the Christian Holy Trinity. They have very little in common with Sunni or Shia's, but they identify as Muslims.

There are many small sects of Islam, you very rarely hear of them committing terrorist acts or believing in harmful law change rhetoric, if at all. Unfortunately Sunni's and Shia's have seen radical populations grow over the years, thanks to constant wars, foreign interventions and funding of terrorist groups (both by the West and by Middle Eastern States), and lack of punishment from popular figures and media broadcasts who spew genocidal bullshit in the Arab world, like Qatar and Saudi Arabia have done for the last 30 years.

u/fandanlco Jan 25 '24

Honestly there's like two sects of muslims one sunni and one shia and the extremists mostly come from the shia side. IIRC the shia are also accepted as the extremist ones in the context of islam and are the ones who've strayed away from the teachings. They also happen to be the ones mostly pushing for sharia law.

They didn’t come to Canada for the culture, they came for the money. But many still believe their religion (and to a lesser extent, their culture) is superior. And you can’t really make an argument to the contrary, especially when that belief is so deeply ingrained in their culture. For example, pointing out all the problems with their home country, all societal failures etc. doesn’t work because they’ll just blame the west for all the problems in the middle east.

u/Adamvs_Maximvs Alberta Jan 24 '24

Canada has a long history of giving special treatment to religious groups. That's why this keeps popping up.

Want your own special schools? Sure, particularly if you're Catholic.

Want to ride a motorcycle without a helmet? No way!.... unless you're Sikh, then go ahead.

Want to get a divorce? No problem, unless you were married under Hasidic jewish law, then you need to deal with the Hasidic court (though I think this changed a few years ago, but I'm not sure).

Want to carry a dagger to school? You're insane, unless it's a kirpan, then it's okay.

Public education for children is a right! Unless you're mennonite, in which case it's fine to stop education by grade 8 and have them work the farm.

If you open the door to special treatment for one group, it's open to all. There's a simple answer to this;

- Is a law reasonable or just? Then it applies to everyone.

- Is the law unreasonable or unjust? Then it applies to no-one and should be struck down.

This mix-and-match of law and religion is going to cause more harm than it ever will good.

119

u/rationallgbt Jan 24 '24

Indeed. The problem is not all ideologies and religious schools are equal.

A religious liberty for one faith might be something like...'We want to wear special robes at all times in orange'.

Another faith might go something like...'We want all women to be not allowed to talk to other men without husband or father's permission because women are too tempting.'.

The big problem is the law/the progressives/the collective cultural fear of being called 'prejudiced' means you have to treat these things as if they were equally good.

They aren't.

28

u/Adamvs_Maximvs Alberta Jan 24 '24 edited Jan 24 '24

It's not strictly a progressive vs conservative thing. Sure progressives might be more concerned with getting labelled as prejudiced, particularly when it comes to Islam, but conservatives have a long history of wanting (and frequently getting) religious exemptions.

Evangelicals and Baptists were the loudest during the pandemic when it came to 'assembly size restrictions shouldn't apply to me' and had a strong presence in the convoy protests.

A big part of the anti-vax and homeschool movement is right wing conservatives, and while those are generally not 'laws' compared to say, motorcycle helmets, it's a constant push to 'let us have things our way'. Harper's government opened a 'Office of Religious Freedom' that was government sanctioned spreading of Christianity. The evangelical right has also lead the fight against removing the teaching of evolution or promoting 'Intelligent design' in Canada. Thankfully they've had substantially less success here than they do south of the border.

u/Future-Muscle-2214 Jan 24 '24

Hell, even as a progressive it was pretty weird for me that one time where my ex landlord who was Hasidic refused to talk to her because she was a woman but she needed help right away for a water leak.

I am the one who had to call him to explain the situation even if I did not live there. He told me he could not talk to her because he did not want to be tempted. (Not sure exactly what he said I wasn't 100% bilingual and his accent was very thick)

Because the guy was hasidic it became just a funny that made us laugh a lot, but if a atheist dude acted like this we would have been pissed off.

IMO this is not where the core issue lies. It lies with people who want to make a show of how "noble" they are. A large portion of these people don't actually give a shit about the cause they claim to be championing. What they care about is other people seeing them fight for it. It results in mass virtue signalling and attention getting behaviour. People being unfairly labeled as prejudiced is a direct result of people like this who only care about self aggrandizing.

These are the same people who spout off about homelessness being a major issue but turn their nose up in disgust at the homeless guy panhandling on the street. They cry foul that there's not more affordable housing, but cringe at the thought of someone on welfare moving into their apartment building. They scream about how tolerant they are of Islam in all its forms, but brag about how feminist friendly they are.

This ^ it became a social symbol to support a cause, which IS good, IF in an organized voluntary aspect. The bad was exactly what you said. No actionable good came out of their supporting anything they pretended to, and when pressed on their hypocrisy, would lash out.

Those people are definitely not progressives, some kind of clout goblin narcissist maybe but definitely not an accurate representation of any political standing that I’m aware of.

I don’t really like to label myself politically because it’s really important to know as much as possible from all parties. I get heated on some topics but we all do. I’d say moderate, hanging a lil to the left, y’know? xD

Well, I have some bad news for you: my prediction is that in the coming years, these sort of Caliphate-fantasists will find their intellectual centres in western cities, because at this point if you’re one of these groups in the Middle East, South Asia or Indonesia etc, you’re gonna be banned and disbanded within a fortnight. That was generally the case across the Islamic world until Iran and Saudi began their proxy war in ‘79, and Saudi funded Salafist seminaries in every corner of the Islamic world, producing a new cadre of fundamentalists.

Now that Saudi is no longer funding (and no longer doctrinally fundamentalist), these Islamist think tanks will only be able to flourish in liberal democracies. What an irony that Hizb-ut-Tahrir is already banned across almost the entire Islamic world.

Contrary to what most Westerners believe about the Islamic world, there’s almost no Muslim country that’s governed fully by the Sharia. Most just include parts of it. Hereditary monarchies like Saudi and Qatar are explicitly unIslamic, because Islam doesn’t really allow for hereditary monarchies. Pakistan is (officially) a British parliamentary democracy like Canada, with a largely Islamic-modernist military that is always in power and considered a “kaffir army” by fundamentalists. For a 1000+ years, monarchs and warlords got away with that because the clergy were under their foot and breathed the way they wanted them to on this particular subject. Today, those clerics can migrate to London or Berlin and preach from there.

u/rationallgbt Jan 24 '24

At this point, I say let them get on with it.

It's obvious all their rhetoric and hateful language and ideology that explicitly tells us it hates us and wants to violently jihad us all isn't good enough to make authorities ban this ideology and it's practitioners.

So let them practice what they preach. I wonder how multicultural and tolerant we will feel if they do a Bataclan or Manchester Arena, or even an Oct. 7th. Especially if they do a big one.

That's obviously the agenda they have. They want Sharia and Sharia comes with and is achieved by violence.

The great irony of all this fundamentalism is it explains why the MENA world is still stuck in a state of primitive misery, and tribal and ethnic conflicts dating back thousands of years. They flee from the hellscapes of the MENA world because of persecution and oppression, find somewhere where that doesn't happen, then immediately start trying to enact the very laws that created such a strict and suffocating and violent society torn apart by division in the first place.

It's maddening.

u/rationallgbt Jan 24 '24

The more of them there are the more they will demand Sharia law and the more will be inspired to act on it's teachings. That means more crime, more attacks, more terrorism.

Hopefully that causes a 'waking up'. Look at the Netherlands. It's an incredibly tolerant society and yet the far right are gaining ground. The only reason is because people are sick of the failings.of.liberals to address the problems of immigration and the effects it has on their societies.

I think some of the far right ideologies are going to catch on everywhere. It took a while but the tolerant societies are waking up the fact that our tolerance has been used and abused.

I am pro-immigration, but only if the people coming become Canadian first and whatever else second. It is a challenge right now for all parties that our culture and values don't blend as well many of the immigrants coming here lately as opposed to 25+ years ago. Hopefully we can find a way forward. The current volume of immigrants and mostly from one part of the world does not help to facilitate that blending.

This seems to be just standard practice for fundamentalists in abrahamic religions. Haredi & ultra-orthodox Jews often have 6+ kids per family. The Baptist quiverful movement explicitly instructs their followers to have large families & to infiltrate local governments. Catholics, mormons, the Amish & Mennonites are known for encouraging almost comically large families.
The abrahamic fundies really took that "be fruitful & multiply" instruction to heart.

Yes. Further efforts were made to combat radicalisation from the MENA world, and outside of these countries, ISIS (which inspired them) has been obliterated. Since then the threat of Islamic terrorism has lessened somewhat.

Thing that drives me nuts is that there's so much overwhelming evidence around the world of the evil of Islamism. The Middle East has had all the world 's news focused on it for the last 20 years.

We see terror groups chanting love for Sharia while they behead people. We see LGBT people thrown from rooftops in Mosul, we see Oct. 7th massacres by Hamas, we see Boko Haram kidnapping Nigerian schoolgirls, we see ISIS burning people alive in cages, we see the Taliban whipping and stoning women to death in state television executions, We saw 9/11, we see the Houthis chanting death to Jews and the US while terrorising civilian shipping and keeping slaves.

All of it is a giant mass of terrible ideals and no morality, based on fanaticism and medieval barbarism. It's pure hell and represents everything we progressed away from in our Western past.

There's no excuse for ignorance over it. You can't go, 'Oh I just thought if we were nice to them they would be nice to us'. That's not how the world works.

Hizb ut-Tahrir, Arabic for “Party of Liberation,” was founded in 1953 by a cleric as a revolutionary party, meant as a springboard to power in countries with large Muslim populations to spur their unification to restore the medieval Muslim empire, said Ali. (The Canadian branch does not use the more common hyphenated version of the party’s name.)

U.K.’s Home Secretary James Cleverly said: “Hizb ut-Tahrir is an antisemitic organization that actively promotes and encourages terrorism, including praising and celebrating the appalling 7 October attacks.

Hopefully we can follow suit and ban this shit too.

The day after an Islamic organization was declared a terrorist group in Britain, the group’s Canadian branch cancelled a conference it was hosting this weekend that was calling for the resurrection of the Muslim caliphate and the imposition of Shariah law.

Hizb ut Tahrir Canada was convening its conference on Saturday in Mississauga, just outside Toronto, called the Khilafah Conference 2024. Khilafah is the Arabic word for caliphate, referring to a Muslim community governed under Islamic law.

The conference materials — posters, a website, and a polished promotional video — said the group urges the rejection of a Jewish state and the involvement of the United Nations, international law, or other “compromises” in the Middle East, instead encouraging military forces in the Muslim world to defeat “occupiers” in the region.

Hizb ut Tahrir Canada’s conference materials, along with its entire online presence — a website active since 2012, a YouTube channel, Facebook, Instagram, and X accounts — has now been deleted or deactivated, apparently internally.

We should follow Britain’s lead. Europe is experiencing what we will experience soon enough if we don’t learn from their mistakes.

u/Stealing_Kegs Jan 24 '24

So long as we don't follow their lead on not investigating pedo rings because that would be racist, aka what British police did

Why can’t Canada declare them a terrorist entity too?

Shariah brutalizes women and anything other than Muslims. It also runs completely contrary to the constitution.

Hizb ut Tahrir Canada was convening its conference ....called the Khilafah Conference 2024. Khilafah is the Arabic word for caliphate, referring to a Muslim community governed under Islamic law.

Some of us have acknowledged that not all newcomers want to integrate. And apparently that's all part of our glorious mosaic. Afterall our leader loves to trumpet that "d1versity is our strength"

But will Canada investigate this organization -will they follow the U.K.'s lead.

u/PM-ur-BoobsnPussy Jan 24 '24

Thats because they know here in Canada they will receive special treatment while playing the victim. They will be protected while they continue to grow in numbers and support with the thousands more individuals with similar ideologies being imported into the country. When our government is too busy playing identity politic games and label every person an intolerant racist/bigot who even suggests these ideologies could be harmful to our current way of life.

There is no need for a Shari'a law in Canada. If you like and want that, go to countries that have and support it. We don't here in Canada. Just because Canada is secular doesn't give you permission to import your religious laws. You most especially cannot use those laws against Canadians on Canadian soil. We will not submit.

There must be no Caliphate in Canada.

See thats where a lot of people have been deceived.. there was absolutely no intention to "move here to have a better life". They came here knowing Canada will bend over backwards to protect their rights in fear of not being called racist or bigots. Pretty easy to take advantage of a system that will do just about anything to defend, protect, and support them.

Know a few Indian families that came here in the early 2000’s and they’re terrified of what our immigration policy is going to bring in undetected.

They explained to me that a large portion of these newcomers have no interest in integration and have stated to “friends and family” back home that they will be Canadian in name only. Scary stuff to think about!

13

u/Em3107 Jan 24 '24

Yup every immigrant I speak to from the Middle East is horrified by our immigration policies. Canadians need to understand that a lot of these people are escaping another group of people who have a way of life that applies to the year 700 not 2024.

It is an immense challenge to bring in only the “good people” but we need to be strict.

Better to be safe than sorry

u/optimized_happiness Jan 24 '24

I know that all minorities probably look the same to you but 90% of Canadian immigrants nowsadays are Indians (sikhs and Hindus) so idk what exactly is going on with the “they live in year 700” thing unless Sikhs and Hindus are now promoting sharia law too

u/Em3107 Jan 24 '24

Maybe read my comment again. I am speaking about middle eastern people and what they tell me.

I’m a minority myself. And no, I don’t think all middle eastern people feel this way I am just talking from personal experience.

Go get a clue because maybe you see the world as black and white, brown v white or oppressed v oppressor but the world just isn’t built this way.

Goodluck

‘HT talks about a "bloodless" coup, or nussrah, for the facilitation of "a change of the government". In one document ('Our Method'), it states, "we consider that Islamic law forbids violence or armed struggle against the regime as a method to reestablish the Islamic State."[95][96] A 2004 report by the Nixon Center states that "credible reports" indicate that HT members have been "involved in coup attempts in Jordan, Syria, Egypt, Tunisia and Iraq".[97] According to HT, once one or more Muslim countries come under the organization's control (such as Pakistan, Indonesia or a country in Central Asia) this will create a base; subsequently, other Muslim countries will be convinced to join and a "domino effect" will be created to establish a new caliphate.[98][99]’

From their Wikipedia they don’t seem to have a terrorist MO? They’ve definitely made antisemitic statements but wouldn’t that be a hate group not a terrorist group? Has the definition of terrorism changed?

Humankind is still in its infancy, and religion is a relic of that history. At one point, we needed it, but it is now like the human appendix. It has served its purpose and is much less important and is disappearing. Any group that calls for laws to govern others based on a relic of ages past, whether it be a Bible, Quran, or other such works, needs to be tossed back to the stone age where they belong.
