"what is a 'moderate muslim'."
WOW! How do cope with such a high level of paranoia?
- cableshaft 10y agoI'd say it's less paranoia and more "all we get from the media is anti-Muslim propaganda and reports of horrible things extremist Muslims do, it'd be nice to have something to point to that's not about that." Honestly I'd rather the mainstream media just starts doing consistent positive coverage on individuals in the Muslim community to counteract the negative news, but I'll take what I can get. I've had discussions with several 'normal folk' Americans (note: I am American) that are totally brainwashed into believing being Muslim is synonymous with being pure evil, and I'm afraid of what that mindset leads to, especially on a large scale.

The ability to fail to understand the difference between a group and it's most visible members is one that is common across ethnic and economic subsets of the population.
