Pretty crazy how the Republican party refuses to/ is incapable of separating religious extremism from Islam as a religion.

Those who are incapable of separating the two only get their information from those who refuse to separate the two

It’s because they hate Islam not for the religious extremism but because it isn’t Christianity. They love religious extremism so long as it’s their religion.

What’s really interesting is how they hate religious fundamentalism when it’s Islam but love it when it’s Christianity.

Every political party increased their opinion of muslims after 9/11. The “not all Muslims” narrative was and has always been more powerful than even the towers falling.

Hey, so, maybe something you didn’t learn in high school and/or college is that when a research source is older than five years it’s considered outdated when used for a current discussion .. and as far as I know 2001 is older than five years😁

Also, two things can be true at once! Overall favor may have increased for Muslim-Americans with a campaign similar to the Stop Asian Hate movement during Covid, but particularly conservative religious groups and far-right political groups may have felt compelled to act and emboldened by 9/11. Even though the unfavorable opinions drop by 7%, the remaining 17% may be more violent, racist, or prejudiced than the 24%
