I'm not interested or disputing any fucking discussion on why anyone of yall think the term is bad. I don't care, I never joined that discussion.

This is the only part I dispute. The system is in use, is useful or whatever other term you wanna use for something being in use and aiding towards a purpose.
It's a thing that happens, I call it reality you can call it whatever else. I've outlined the range of my argument if you wanna discuss something else I'm not the right person I responded in that post about something specific that's all.
What? Lol.

I said your arguments are pure positivism because you are saying your personal observation is reality. This is like tagging Islam with terrorism based on your subjective observations and passing it off as objective reality because a lot of people identify Islam with terrorism, hence it's useful to tag them together, despite multiple people telling you this is completely based on your personal biased observation, is contradicted by evidence and, furthermore, is discriminatory.

It's not up to me to prove something to be true that another poster has claimed. The onus is on them. Also, it has absolutely nothing to do with an argument from 10 years ago.

I feel like I'm living in the twilight zone with people here blindly defending the Islamic faith. Would anyone do the same for Christianity? No, of course not. It's been awhile since I had a discussion on this so I had to do some browsing on Wikipedia and here are a couple aspects that jump out:
  • Shari'a law and particularly how this relates to women (ie. encouraging domestic violence, acceptance of marriage between very young girls and older men, far fewer rights for women, etc.)
  • The concept of Jihad as a war that should be waged against non-Muslims (yes, some theologians have translated this as an inner struggle but just as many have taken it to directly mean a physical war)
  • "Blasphemy" and the punishment for engaging in it (ie. a majority of Islamic countries have incredibly harsh sentences for visual depictions of the prophet)

I think you'd be hard pressed to argue that, for example, Judaism or Hinduism have teachings that are as restrictive towards women as the Islamic faith.
NOT OKAY: Criticizing core tenets of Islam.
ALSO NOT OKAY: Saying Muslims aren't all terrorists or that Islam isn't intrinsically terroristic.
