Are you insinuating that all Muslims support child marriage? Because it certainly seems like you are. I'm a 'leftist', but also atheist, so I certainly don't support Islam. But I will tolerate people who believe in it. Same as I'll tolerate people who believe in Christianity, which has plenty of weird shit of its own. Additionally, I'm opposed to the 'cancelling' of Richard Stallman. It's fucking stupid. Maybe you should try to not paint all 'leftists' with this stupidly broad brush you're using.

> Are you insinuating that all Muslims support child marriage? Because it certainly seems like you are. Yes I am. For a Muslim to not support what is in the Koran is apostasy, as the Koran is the perfect word according to them. Mohammed married a 6 yo, and consummated the marriage at 9 yo. As the "perfect example of a man", Muslims today still copy that. When laws are passed against that, those lawmakers can expect a much-shortened lifespan. You are part of the problem for commenting without knowing that.

Please don't take HN threads further into religious or ideological flamewar. This is just as damaging as the original post—more so, because if people just flagged these things instead of taking the bait and replying to them, then the flamewar wouldn't spread. That's why the site guidelines include "Don't feed egregious comments by replying; flag them instead." a.k.a. Please don't feed the trolls. https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html
