As I belong to a group outright killing which Islam considers fair game, I don't find it particularly ironic.
He that would make his own liberty secure, must guard even his enemy from oppression; for if he violates this duty, he establishes a precedent that will reach to himself. - Thomas Paine
You don't get to call for systemic oppression and then complain that you are being systematically oppressed. Well, I mean, you can. But I'll just roll my eyes and quote Paine at you.
We can to go one step further: Muslims don't get to systemically oppress and then complain about being systemically oppressed. I believe we are done here.
