ELI5:[NSFW]Does the Quran really say this? If not, how is it being interpreted by ISIS?

You're using inflammatory language to link that statement liar. You literally cut the whole rest of the comment out that didn't support your claim I made no claim whatsoever. Liar, again. Second, you don't have the moral authority to determine the quality of a hyperbolic statement. Fuck you, now you're interpreting his absolutely clear statement? Also: I didn't claim to have any moral authority. Lie Nr.3

The quote in question refers to extremists

which all are

vermin who need to be stamped out, like a cancer on society that needs to be excised ASAP

DO YOU AGREE WITH THAT? and if so: what makes you any better than the "vermin" that "needs to be stomped out"? Is your casual radicalism better because it's not grounded in religious but ideological zeal?

I mean, the vocal majority of non-Muslim americans literally say the exact same thing in regards to all Muslims

Absolute generalization strung together with a weasel word (just the vocal ones, huh) but besides that, let's say it's true: Does this justify this murderous disregard for human rights at all? I think not, I think its just the laziest tu quoque I read all day.

but because the poster only specifying the extreme ones, and of all religions, it gives you a perfect opportunity to bash Muslims as a whole. Lie Nr.4: I didn't bash anyone. What I pointed out that his last two sentences together devalued anything of what he wrote before. Calling out extremists: I'm fine with that. Casually refering to anyone as vermin and wanting to stomp them out? Hits a nerve: Universal human rights are either universal or nothing. If they don't apply to your enemy they don't apply at all. Adding to that: his little: btw I'm muslim was just the icing on the cake of this context.

Your heart is obviously in the right place but your reading comprehension is bad and you should feel bad.
