I'm very much against genital mutilation as is practiced in some muslim countries and support bans against such practices in the west. Does that make me a xenophobe?
- tpush 6y agoNo, it doesn't. One can oppose (religiously motivated or not) genital mutilation on purely humanistic grounds, completely divorced from any religious concerns. Banning building minarets has no such justification; just blatant xenophobia.
- nec4b 6y agoI guess where you come from all building codes are blatant xenophobia, because there can't possible any other reason as fear from stranger to disallow some buildings.
- tpush 6y agoThe point isn't that every banning of a style of building is xenophobia, but that in this particular instance it is. Making 'can't build minarets' part of your constitution isn't some local law building code thing; it's motivated by xenophobia.
