On the Fact that the Left Loves to Criticize and Ridicule All Sorts of People; Fundamentalist Christians, Mormons, Tea-Partiers, Bankers, Scientologists, Folks Who Home-School Their Kids, etc. but When it Comes to Criticizing and Making Sport of Muslims (Believers in Some of the Most Buffoonish Things Imaginable and a Culture Which Represses Women and Murders Gays, "Infidels", etc.) THEY JUST CAN'T DO IT!!
I think that it has a lot to do with the fact that they tend to see the world strictly through this almost cartoonish repressor versus repressed prism and that it just never dawns on them that there are major-league assholes, evil, and significant stupidity amongst those who they see as "the repressed" (with white Europeans, Americans, and Israelis being responsible for everything that's bad in the world). It's kind of a racist sentiment if you think about it in that it a) strongly implies that Muslims (in this instance) are just too stupid and helpless to know any better and b) is therefore strictly up to white Europeans to facilitate a change....Oh well, I guess that the this whole obsessive-compulsive white European tendency for self-reflection and self-criticism can only go SO far.
