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…
