What’s “awful” about Maryam?

@@terrypussypower She's very closed-minded and unable to listen or learn. Listen to her on Sam Harris's podcast ("Throw Open the Gates" episode). You'll want to listen all the way through if you have the time and if you can stand it.

@@toaster4693 I listened to the 50 mins that are available to non subscribers. She seemed fine to me. I agree with Harris that the FBI can't spend equal time looking for terrorists in Amish Churches as the do in Mosques, but, as a frequent flyer, I don't want them to stop searching Nuns at the airport because then the Jihadists will start smuggling weapons onto planes dressed as Nuns. Harris really should have researched Tommy Robinson before commenting on him. He is a fascist and 10 minutes of talking nice after "Tommy and Mo" does not get him a pass on that. Harris saying that he found things to agree with Tommy on is like saying you found a sensible passage in Mien Kampf, it does nothing to promote the sensible idea and it will probably be quote mined by the far right. I would not be at all surprised if Tommy has not used this to say "See, Sam Harris agrees with me". Their views are remarkably close. They both hate Islamic fundamentalists, they both hate fascists, they are both against the demonisation of people for criticizing Islam. The difference seems to be that she sees certain criticisms, leveled at Muslims, to be counter productive. Harris seems to have missed the emphasis she was placing on the counter productive argument.
