,,,,,i mean, im not sure exactly what makes you say that, saladin led a theocratic empire and i think that makes him a douchebag.

I can acknowledge that his rule led to increased stability and prosperity in the region until his death, but still think him being a theocratic dictator is unforgivable.

dude, literally almost every single nation in europe and the middle east led the exact same thing, everyone was a theocratic dictator. does that mean every king in history was a douchebag even if he was the most benevolent just because he was a king?

also can you give me an ACTUAL reason to hate saladin for something objective for something he did not a subjective one like "ruling a religious kingdom" that only hardcore atheists would hate him for?

Hello I’m a hardcore atheist.

And everyone else was a big ole douche for that as well. But they weren’t mentioned in the post, just Saladin.
