| Saufsoldat #1203290 3 months ago |
Do explain how Fluttershy wearing fugly things makes her look cuter. After Rarity she's the most knowledgeable about fashion and clothing, so why would she wear such crap or hide her mane?
Right, because the tumblr author forced her into a religion that incompatible both with Fluttershy's personality and with MLP in general. But noooo, I'm an asshole for pointing that out, because I refuse to pretend that Islam is a peaceful religion. We can't just keep religion out of MLP because, because that would deprive us of all the great poo-flinging contests and the opportunity to pat yourselves on the back. I really thought this show was encouraging gender equality but here we are and people are defending a misogynistic religion. |

Dude, the filter is so you don't have to see the things you don't want to see. Unless you're lying about your distaste for this, this is clearly something you don't want to see. Not using it and then complaining that what you don't like is there is extremely childish. |

Just shut up Sauf, seriously. Unless you actually have any certified knowledge of all people of Muslim faith or people or Islam (I seriously doubt it) no one cares about your opinion. The author of that tumblr has every right to depict her own ideas just as you have the right to have yours, even if you are an asshole. So do yourself and everyone else a favor and for once just shove it and keep it to yourself. You'll never win this issue. |

@Saufsoldat
Have you ever known a Muslim? Can you say that your opinions on Muslims are generated by personal experience? Has a Muslim ever personally wronged you? And even if such a thing has occurred, does that give you the right to condemn a whole society of people, does it give you the right to say that their way of life and religion is worthless? "I refuse to pretend that Islam is a peaceful religion" Is that relevant? All religions in their lengthy history have been prone to religious violence, Christianity certainly is no exception, even Buddhism. The 1950's demonized Communists, today its Muslims, and the Muslim way of life. Saufsoldat, you are arguing from a position of utter ignorance, regurgitating politically motivated hatred. |
| Anonymous #1203492 3 months ago |

| Saufsoldat #1203501 3 months ago |
@398: When exactly did I ever say that I like Christianity or Judaism? And I'm not cherry-picking when I say that Islam allows wife-beating, that's probably the most unambiguous piece of misogyny in the Qu'ran.
@400: Yeah I'd be happier because ignorance is bliss, but the sad fact of the matter is that the irrational amount of special privileges that Islam gets in the west is making me very unhappy, so ignoring the root of the problem, which is ignorant liberals supporting Islam, won't make me happy in the long run. @403: Oh and it's different for the other people here? I have no trouble admitting that the artist's general style is good, but that doesn't mean that slapping crappy attire onto a pony makes it cuter. Bald Fluttershy is simply unappealing compared to regular Fluttershy. If the artist had wanted people to only talk about his art and not the ideology it conveys, then he shouldn't have added religion to it. The comparison is a little exaggerated, but I don't draw a pony in SS uniform and then expect people to only talk about my art style. @425: I'm a non-religious atheist, what the fuck is it that makes people think only christians can have a problem with Islam? As for your specific examples, a knight templar is fine, because those aren't an issue in the modern world. It's like drawing them as a Mamluk. Buddhism doesn't champion anti-humanistic values like the Abrahamic religions do, so that's fine in my book. Generally I'm against adding any religion to MLP, though. |

Hey Sauf, have you ever read the bible? I'm sure that if you're half as a smart as you think you are you'll agree that there are a lot of parts in the bible that try to justify some pretty terrible things right? Would you then say that everyone who follows Christianity automatically supports and acts out all things written in the bible, right down to the last sentence? Of course not, because the point of religion to a wide majority of people is simply using it as a means of spiritual guidance or as a means to better themselves. I'm sure there are people are out there who act just like you after having read the bible and now act out against anyone who follows Christianity for not understanding this.
There is no "issue" here other than the fact that you seem to have some clear bias opinion against a particular religion and have taken upon yourself to "preach" your "concerns" to others on this site. To them you're nothing but a self righteous opinionated ass who feels they need to "educate" everyone, and for what? So that people will see the "horrors" of an adorable image of Islamashy? Oh yeah, clearly this tumblr means to support terrorism or what ever bullshit you're trying to spread. Oh, and it's not called "criticism" if you're just bitching. Criticism actually entails some dissecting and analyzing of the issue, rather than slandering it with your opinionated viewpoints. Word of advice: No one is going to listen or want to follow the advice of a bitching moron. |

@477: I know a few muslims, they are a sizeable minority in Germany.
I don't have an opinion on all muslims per se, I judge them on a personal basis like I would all people. I do have a slightly negative disposition. To put it in D&D terms, being muslim would give someone a -5 on my initial reaction. This is not due to personal experience, that would be a guilt by association fallacy, it's simply due to how they classify themselves. If someone says he's muslim, I assume that he believes the Qu'ran to be a good moral guide. It's possible that he's just a muslim by name, like most christians in Europe are, but I have to work with what he gives me, not with what I hope he's like, so my general opinion on muslims is slightly more negative than say my general opinion of non-religious people. A few muslims have personally wronged me, but not because of their religion, so it's irrelevant to my view on Islam. What gives me the right to condemn a religion the dogma of that religion. I can condemn Islam without having met a single muslim in my life, just by reading the Qu'ran. Condemning a religion is not the same as condemning all its followers, though. I'm certain nobody here approves of the ancient Incan religion, what with all their human sacrifice and ripping the heart out while it's still beating, etc, that doesn't mean every last Incan was an asshole, just that their religion was retarded and backwards. Not all religions have produced violence, look up Jainism. That's something you could call "religion of peace". Again, I never said that I only dislike Islam. Most of the major religions in the world are shit, that doesn't mean I can't criticize Islam. And no, Muslims are demonized, quite the opposite. It's a nice fairy tale that muslim apologists have spun, but the sad truth is that you can't criticize Islam without getting ugly words tossed your way in western society. The best example is that certain people here insist on calling me racist just for my opinion on Islam. My dislike for Islam is certainly not politically motivated. Unfortunately, most of the people in my political spectrum don't share my opinion on Islam at all and it's one of the issues that often puts me at odds with other liberals. |

Okay Saufsoldat, I've read all your comments and here's my final word on it: Take your shit somewhere else.
The point of this image and the tumblr it came from was simply to be unique and adorable. It's not shoving any religious teaching down my throat, it's not being negative or vile, all it does is try to make others happy and be engaging, unlike you. Your hate is neither needed or wanted here, as clearly stated by the rest of us who are just trying to have fun, yet all you do is continually try to justify your crap by pointing fingers and telling us how bad the other side is without actually discussing any finer points or details. You're a tragic example of ignorance and American propaganda towards Islamic people, and I sincerely hope one day you might actually see the errors of your way. |

@509: Again, can we cut the whole crap with other religions? I already said that I not follow any religion, so all you're doing is saying "well it's okay for Islam to be shit, because other religions are shit". No, it doesn't work that way.
I'm not biased against Islam either, I judge it just like I would judge any ideology with the same values as Islam. Do show any factual inaccuracies you've found in my comments, otherwise don't claim that I am slandering anything. @CaravanPalace: That murder of that poor woman was apparently racially motivated ("Go back to your country"), I fail to see what Islam has to do with this. If you would stop resorting to fallacious reasoning for a minute and not appeal to anecdotal evidence, you'd know that hate crimes against jews still far outnumber hate crimes against muslims. Yet I could insult Judaism as much as I like while receiving barely any attention. I was also mostly talking about Europe and not the US. American society is heavily influenced by the christian right, is hated disproportionately by the muslim world and generally has issues with Islam ever since muslims flew planes into the WTC. These special privileges I was talking about are mostly in Europe. For example muslim nurses and doctors in the UK can disregard certain health regulations to "protect their modesty" (Source). Also muslims are quite literally forcing halal meat down people's throats. They get to ignore certain animal cruelty laws and are allowed to slaughter an animal by having it slowly choke to death on its own blood. As if that weren't enough, that meat doesn't even have to be labelled as such. @630: I love how it's a whole article about how much Germans supposedly hate Islam and only one paragraph highlighting the real issue: The survey also showed that Germans had a more negative view than other countries of Jews, Hindus and Buddhists, and that only 49 per cent of western Germans and 53 per cent of easterners believed all religious groups should have equal rights, against 72 per cent in Denmark, 82 per cent in the Netherlands, 86 per cent in France and 89 per cent in Portugal. So apparently Islam has nothing to do with it. But since we're in the mood for opinion polls: Zero tolerance for homosexuals by UK muslims Over one fourth of UK muslims are in favor of executing apostates I don't want to justify anti-muslim intolerance, but if you want to be tolerated you should start by tolerating. @661: I've already seen the error of my ways, I used to be a stereotypical liberal when I was younger. "Christianity, the US, and Israel are the root of all evil, Islam is actually not so bad, some muslims are just driven to terrorism by the US, freedom for Palestine, don't blame Islam, blame extremism, etc". Been there, done that and then I started actually educating myself. The choice was sticking with the crowd and maintaining the lie of the "religion of peace" or preserving my moral integrity. And where am I not discussing any "finer points an details"? I make very elaborate responses and all I get from most people is "herpderp racist, bigot, propaganda, islamophobia" plus a crapload of strawmen. |

...O-kay...After spending far more time on this than what I needed to, let me add some clarification: Fluttershy wearing that outfit? That's not a Islamic mandate; it's a CULTURAL MANDATE! Depending on the region in the Middle East, some counrties have head-scarves that would barely qualify as a head-scarf, while others have women covered up even more than Fluttershy here. It's not a mandate of Islam, the Qu'ran never mentions a "dress-code" for women like what we see nowadays. The dress-code over there is instead determined by the CULTURE of the people in a specific region, which is why some nations in the Middle East can be wildly different than others when it comes to how women dress. So, all this complaining and flaming and grand-standing everyone here has been doing? (Some more than others I'll grant you, but still.) What you're fighting about, namely Fluttershy wearing a CULTURAL OUTFIT FROM A SPECIFIC CULTURE, has absolutely NOTHING to do with Islam. For all we may know, in this ponyverse, this Fluttershy is their world's equivalent of a Coptic Christian, or Arab Christian, or Eastern Orthodox Christian, a Roman Catholic Christian, a Semitic Hebrew, a native Orthodox Jew, a Samaritan, a Sunni Muslim or a Shia Muslim or a Suufi Muslim. She could be part of ANY, A-N-Y of these religions, and it wouldn't matter because her outfit is a CULTURAL OUTFIT! Think of it like this: Say you have Rarity, dressed in a dirndl and other items of a traditional German/Alpine Austrian women's outfit. Would you assume she's a Nazi, just because she is wearing an outfit that comes from a culture that AT ONE TIME followed the Nazis? NO, YOU WOULD NOT! So everybody, please, PLEASE! Let's put a moratorium on flamewars regarding Islam and whether it is a peaceful religion or not when talking about images from this tumblr. Take it to reddit if you absolutely have to. Instead, let's appreciate this tumblr for what it IS: an alternate approach to the characters we love, that's focusing on the growing friendship between two members of two COMPLETELY different cultures, and how that friendship will hopefully survive through any adversity. (And yes, I realize that the artist did name it Islamishy; I'm guessing the name was chosen to help make it clear that this Fluttershy is from the Middle East for convenience sake, nothing more.) Now, as for how I react to this? Well: ![]() |

While Islam may not mandate the hijab in the eyes of some moderate muslims, that doesn't mean the hijab isn't connected to Islam. That's like saying a nun outfit or a priest's robe aren't necessarily christian just because the bible doesn't explicitely talk about them. @Takashi_0: Look, you care enough to edit the tags and post a comment.
