Then why does you answer to my comment have nothing to do with the point of my comment.

Maybe it have to spell it out: My point was that western media use the word "islamist" utterly arbitrary to attack brown people of any ideology, thus rendering the term useless. And that is discustingly racist. This is especially true for far right media like the NZZ that you cited.

Your point was that you apparently presume that I defend him, which I didn't. He blocked me ten years ago in Twitter after a heated discussion. I don't like him.

I now presume that your are discussing with bad intentions.

You ask me how it makes him an islamist after I commented regional context, i answer that I and the article never stated that he is a “islamist” (what that even mean, isn’t that just the same as saying someone is Jude/Christian??), and then you said I missed the point

🙉WTF

Lol, I have to check out if I can block you. I despice right wing trolls. But this is the headline of the article you cited and on which I commented:

"Erneut hätte ein Islamist in Zürich auftreten sollen, nun ist der Mann verhaftet worden. Regierungsrat Mario Fehr spricht von einem «Judenhasser»"

Und "Islamist" heißt auf english halt "islamist". Versuch nicht meinen Kommentar zu verdrehen. Unglaublich, AFD-Taktiken...

My whole comment was about the use of the word islamist and you act like I defended him. I call this "ill faith".

Of course you can block me, but what is it worth? It limits you to see other opinions..

😆damn, and yea you are right, i have overseen that.

How to you call people who believe in the islamistic religion, if islamist is wrong?
