I read this more as making fun of alt righters who are deeply islamophobic while also supporting free market ideology.
Pretty much ever religion is full of bad stuff that should not be relevant today but if you said free market is christian then those idiots would use it to reinforce their believes.
this is meant to be against capital, yes? since this an anarchy comm? and the argument it’s making is that capitalism is a product of sharia law, yes? and sharia law is law as derived from the qu’ran, yes?
so, the reason it’s giving to be against capital is “it comes from islam”, yes? at least that’s the only way i can find to interpret this.
the medieval period may have been brutal in europe, but next door, the islamic golden age was happening at that time, involving huge advances & development in medicine, mathematics, philosophy, art, etc between the 8th and 14th/15th centuries.
I think religious law is bad, whether it’s islamic or jewish or christian or any other religion’s. I don’t criticize islam as much as other religions these days, because there’s brutal islamophobia in the west, and where I live especially. But still, no gods, no masters, and that includes islam.
If “islamophobia” meant simply being scared of and/or hostile toward Islam itself and not Muslims and/or Arabs in general, then you’d have a point here, but that isn’t what’s happening.
On top of the magical thinking encouraged by any religion, Islam:
Explicitly condones child marriage and rape (Muhammad married Aisha when she was 6-9 and consummated the marriage at 9-12)
Explicitly condones slavery; many of the details of the way in which it does this were progressive for the time, such as freeing slaves as atonement for sins, but that’s the problem with considering a text to be eternally perfect: the world moves on. Kosher butchering is another example of this phenomenon.
Strongly condemns apostasy; a minority of scholars believe that the only punishment involved is in the afterlife, but even then, there’s social pressure to not even consider leaving the religion. This ties back into the suppression of free thought and the encouragement of magical thinking common to so many religions.
islamophobia is cool again, i see

in that context it would make sense but that’s not the context in was posted in.
Serious question. How is this islamophobic?

It is meant to be against capital because it comes from the brutal medieval era. Thats at least my interpretation of it

if it was purely about that it would not mention sharia, which is still a thing today.

Why are you scared of Islam or hostile towards it?
