Results speak for themselves.

It spent the majority of its existence being annexed & downtrodden by other greater powers. It was Sandwiched in the crusades. Now it's one of the world's most hated pariah states.

They are the ones who are afraid to offend muslims. They are the ones who succumb easily to islamic pressure. They are the ones who force themselves to smile at muslims. They are the ones who choose to remain pliable and subservient to muslims.

So maybe, they are the real islamophobes all along.

Because a coward wouldn't have the courage to speak-up against people they don't like.

But people who remain quiet because they don't wanna get bashed? Those are the real cowards all along.

I think that the left has mistreated Christianity. They spent years telling Christians to not condemn others then got mad when they stopped.

In the west, leftists have spent like the past 2 decades bashing Christianity telling Christians to shut-up or risk being called judgemental, hypocritical, etc. All manners of verbal abuse.

Then palestine came.

Many Christians didn't react.

The left got mad anyway. "How can you call yourself a Christian when you don't even care about a genocide?! You are the least Christ-like person I have ever met!", they would yell.

You spent 20 years telling Christians "It's un-Christian to condemn other people!" (which is hypocritical & ironic considering the fact that they're not even Christians themselves so they're also un-Christian).

It just feels unfair.

leftists worked super duper hard to bash Christianity. To put a gag order on Christians. To deprive them of the right to free speech. To make them feel like they're not allowed to say an opinion that they don't agree with. To make them feel like they're not allowed to condemn anyone because doing so risks being called "a judgemental hypocrite", then they got mad when they got what they wanted?

From the perspective of an observer, the "wrongness" stems from a perceived lack of intellectual honesty. If a movement spends decades arguing that religious dogma has no place in public policy, it becomes logically inconsistent to then use that same religious dogma to demand specific political actions. This is often called instrumentalism—using a person’s values not because you respect them, but as a tool to guilt-trip them into a specific outcome.

If "tolerance" only extends to people who already agree with you, it isn't really tolerance—it's a demand for submission.

This is anti-Christian bullying, plain & simple.

Hypocritical secularists.

They preach that "The Law should be blind and not look at people's race, gender, religion, skin color, etc. in order to ensure a fair & calm judgement" yet the moment they see "Christian" on a person's label suddenly they become a fricking lynch mob 🙄.

If the goal is to create a fair society where the "Law is blind", then targeting a specific group for their identity or silencing their speech based on their faith would, by definition, be a failure of those same liberal values.

Ultimately, if the goal is social persuasion, many would argue the left is "wrong" purely on a tactical level: you generally can't mock someone's core identity for twenty years and then expect them to be your enthusiastic friend & ally the moment you find a cause you think they should care about.

Side Rant: The accusation "Would Jesus say something like that? He never condemned anyone!" is absolute BS. Jesus condemned people in The Bible. Like: "It would be better for him if a millstone were hung around his neck and he were cast into the sea than that he should cause one of these little ones (children) to sin." - Luke 17:2
