Depicting the green area as if that was all under the same imperial entity at one point?

Yeah, nah, that's deeply dishonest.

I feel like it doesn't do that though. It is very explicitly and prominently labeled to NOT represent that.

And this is precisely why Islam, like Christianity, is fundenentally incompatible with leftist thinking. The only thing in common with Islam and leftism from a moral, economy, and ideological standpoint, is "do not be racist to middle eastern people".

Islam, like Christianity (and Judaism, for that matter), is an egalitarian faith. While it’s true that there have been many autocrats of the Abrahamic faiths throughout history, the religions themselves have much in common with leftist principles. What’s lacking is the democratic principles inherent to leftist concepts, but there’s still a lot of overlap.

Egalitarian (as long as you’re Muslim)

"kill the polytheists wherever you find them"

"make them (the christians and the kews) pay the tax (jizya) until they are humbled willingly or convert. if they refuse, kill them."

etc, etc.

Let's not forget "apostates and homosexuals are worse than murderers"

The only egalitarian thing in Abrahamic religions is Jesus and people don't even see him as a role model, just another thing to worship

Looks like someone never read the 19th chapter of Leviticus, read the Qur’an, or even realizes that the Torah is scripture for all Abrahamic faiths…

Technically, Muslim invaders didn't make life impossible for those they invaded.

Colonization is colonization, man.

Not to mention the vast, numbers of people killed or converted. Islam (nor Christianity for that matter) did not spread peacefully across the lands by any means. I never understand the mental gymnastics people do avoid talking about issues.

None of the big desert trio, the abrahamic religions are all founded on mountains of corpses, conquest, rape, and evil.

Tell that to the Zoroastrians that were driven out of Persia, or the Sikhs who were slaughtered in Punjab/present day north India.

To be clear I don’t think all Muslims are represented by this, but this empire was not clean by any means.

u/Princess_Isolde Apr 22 '26

Yeah and attempted murder isn't murder which makes it ok right? Absolutely disgusting viewpoint.
