When it became apparent that it was Islamic extremists, Leanne doubled down:

ISIS are extreme right wing, she's not wrong.

Yes, I hear they are very popular with the KKK and the alt-right

The only difference between the KKK/Alt Right and IS is their choice of religion.  They are remarkably similar.

Both right-wing Christians and IS claim to be strict adherents to holy texts and both ignore the parts about love and acceptance while they cherry pick the parts that make them feel superior.Both believe female sexuality is sinful, that women need to be virgins till marriage and that men are superior, that homosexuality is a perversion and theirs is the one and only true religion.Both blame women when they are victims of rape. Both believe that women aren’t smart enough to make decisions about their bodies.Increasingly, right-wing Christians, like Islamic terrorists, feel that they need to take up their own arms, because their government isn’t representing their needs.Both feel that talking is weak and that violence is the only language that enemies understand.Both want their holy text to be the law of the land.Both want people who they feel are sinful to be marginalised or even killed.Both feel intellectualism leads to sinful thoughts.Both are anti-science.Both feel a profound sense of entitlement – that the world owes them their rightful place of superiority.

I do not want this to turn into another Trumps 100 days thread where it went WAY off tangent.

You are confused between a political organisation and a religion one. Nazism has no element of Christianity involved, it is a secular ideology.

Perhaps your bigotry towards so called "right wing Christians" is clouding your viewpoint.

Damn I hate to be proven right in such an awful manner that goes way beyond the other event. LeeAnne was an idiot posting it like that, but where I do agree which is what I've been saying is that  at the extremes they meet.

Yet by calling it out you get all sorts of names and labels thrown at you, but they go very quiet now. I really wish it wasn't under such terrible circumstances.

First they ignore you, then they laugh at you, then they fight you, then you win. Ghandi

that may be true in it's original form but how many American Neo Nazis are Jewish or Muslim to you think?

Jezza99

How many American neo-Nazis are atheists or agnostics do you think?
