I Am An Ex Muslim
I just want to say a few things
I was sitting with my mom and the tv was on and a news channel was talking about New Zealand, it was about how people there reacted and how some Muslims are calling for a day where everyone wear hijabs to show support etc and she tells me "you know that like 350 people there got into Islam after all these events happened?" my reply to her was "well after studying Media I can't believe this without actually seeing it" then comes a non Muslim news reporter wearing a Hijab and I explained that I can simply take a screenshot and type that she became Muslim and people would also believe me.
I know that she found this false info on Facebook. That's what some Muslims basically live for on social media, getting people's attention based on false news as if it's 1960 and everyone should simply believe them without thinking. I seen more horrible posts happening about a video of one of the victims of a train wreck that happened here in February and 25 people died in it. A guy took a screenshot of the victim from the security camera footage that was all over YouTube and FB and litteraly wrote on it "That could be you on judgement day" (the victim was lets say in a really bad situation and I don't know if he's alive or not but you can already guess what was happening to him after the train blew up) the inhumane idiot who took the screenshot had no respect for the victim or for the victim's family. Stuff like this really makes me feel that I'm living in a jungle hell I think most animals are more humane than this.
Also something weird came to my mind that's kinda related, in late 2015 after Paris attacks I heard of this Muslim dude who stood somewhere asking people to hug him and kept saying that the people who were responsible for the attacks do not represent Islam blah blah and it was ridiculous because that wasn't about him so he does this, people were busy mourning for the dead and he's busy doing something weird and trying to promote for his religion in the wrong time and the wrong place.
That's gets me close to what I actually want to say. I do realize that some Muslims are aware of this and do disagree with this bullshit and I want to say that I'm not being hateful I'm just giving examples on what really gets on my nerves regarding something I once believe is good for humanity but turns out it's way further from good. To be fair I agree that at led some verses of Quran can be good sometimes but what ISIS did was also from this same book and same religion and if it was created by a God who knew people can manipulate it this way then he kinda messed up badly.
I'm tired of seeing people who can only symphasize with the ones who are like them only I can't simply forget what people around me thought of something like the Charlie Hebdo incident when terrorism suddenly became the savior of Islam for a few days then it came back to its place. I can't forget the ones who hated the fact that the media portrayed the victims of an attack against a Church as myrtyrs and were like "hell no myrtyrs can only be Muslims". Why not for once use the term "myrtyrs of humanity" or something like that. Terrorism is disgusting so really you can't be selective about terrorism or humanity and use any of them for your own selfish reasons.
The situation could be less horrible than what I'm portraying it to be but I'm sick of this I don't even want to discuss these stuff anymore but I need to get them out of my system. I'm simply against any act of violence it's as simple as that I was even surprised at how some Atheists on my Facebook handled the New Zealand situation, it's like they left their old religions (Islam and Christianity) but they kept their racism and their sense of convincing themselves that they are right all the time which means they only reached point zero and need to start over. I'll attack racism wherever I find it. I am still a work in progress, I think we all are really. Learning never stops and I know I'm not perfect and I never even want to be perfect because noone is.
