‘Muslims are Hilarious!’ MSNBC Panel’s Unimaginable Response to Oklahoma Beheading

Ladies and gentlemen, our Ruling Class.

Over the years I have tried compiling a list of political maxims which are *always* true.
Until today, I had only identified two:

1) Marxists lie.
2) Never, ever, *ever* create a martyr.

And now, after watching these IDIOTS contort at all exepense from the glaringly obvious, I have number 3:

3) A is A: it could save your life.

    - Obeidallah said the “right-wing media” in America is using the attack to suggest that “Muslims are here in America, they’re committing jihad.” -

    I would say 09/11/01 was textbook "Jihad in America"
    Somalian kids are leaving my state to attend terrorist training camps in Somalia and then return and are being tracked by the FBI
    Americans are beheaded by Muslims overseas
    Americans beheaded by Muslims at home
    Imams are inciting to murder, preaching Jihad in America, Australia, England, pretty much every other ally we have.

    Call me crazy but I see a pattern.

    - “There should be a cultural paradigm shift in which its not okay to create that linkage immediately,” writer and filmmaker Negin Farsad said. “We have gone on and on and on creating this language between Muslims and violence and we need to have a counter-narrative and we don’t. And that’s what we trying to do. "

    I think this guy graduated from the Ellsworth Toohey's School of Prose, or Big Brother's University of Doublespeak.

    I would just like to point out that I am a student at a central PA high school, and when I tried to read this site this morning on a school computer, my school blocked the Tea Party Website because it is a "cult". I can still get onto the Communist Party USA and Socialist Party USA websites, however. I look forward to reading this link at home.

    Hello Eudaimonia,
    "Hilarious!" The only thing funny going on here is that these people have been given the microphone.
    Of course I really mean funny in the other sense...
    It is no leap of logic to conclude that a Muslim extremist has used his extreme view as justification and rationalization for his actions when all of the relative information including his computer postings, activity and his own words are also placed in the scales. Apparently it is too much to ask of these talking heads to consider all evidence, or do some research.
    It is not an indictment of all who read the Koran, but it is indicative of a weak mind being influenced by a religion that in part preaches violence as opposed to passivity. It is the difference between the Old and New Testament... between the primitive and the civilized... the impressionable and the reasonable skeptic.
    I would add; when It comes to this kind of atrocity I am tempted to suggest some Old Testament justice is in order, since it is all that they seem to understand...
    But I digress.
    O.A.

    I wonder if they will think it's so hilarious when their head gets chopped off. I'm sure they are livid that they can't say anything negative about the CFO stopping more killings and beheadings.

    A is A.

    I agree if his conversion wasn't relevent it shouldn't be talked about but there appears to be a connection. With the recent beheadings it would be irresponsible to ignore the fact he just converted to Islam. This was disgusting to watch. MSNBC has staked out an ideology and they refuse to see obvious facts...shameful.

    A woman was BE-HEADED... by a Muslim. These willfully ignorant tools think their charisma can hide the obvious. Do they have NO desire for rational reality in their lives. And I'm surprised she wasn't wearing her tampon earrings again.

    They were joking about religion being hilarious. They're rightly dismissing people simplifying crime or other stories that in any way involve religion as being all about religion.

      they conveniently left out all of his FB postings alluding to jihad, teh fact that he beheaded the woman not just stabbed her, in pictures shown using the hand signal ISIL uses...some journalists.
      We live in an age of moral relativism. it is not hard to imagine if your society says every. If reason does not prevail, you will have people choosing all sorts of evil practices.
      During the Reagan years, he spent alot of time calling communism out for what it was-EVIL. I do not remember him saying communists are just people too! He actively promoted people to turn from the evils of its practice. Pre WWII there were many british citizens-upperclass, lords and ladies (including a prince) who had never worked a day in their life, actively promoting communism and befriending Hitler. Were they so morally awash they couldn't dream that Hitler might one day bomb their cities? did they care? this type of spin journalism, with all of its lack of accurate reporting, is chilling.
      hey Euda, you only added A is A today?

        I've been repeating in more and more, but that video really hit home how precarious things are.

        The false reality which our Ruling Class stubbornly promote and insist upon is no longer just detrimental to one's economic stability, it is now patently lethal.

        I am reminded of the scene in Michael Crichton's "State of Fear" where a Ruling Class idiot walked into a throng of cannibals, insisting that believing that they were cannibals was bigotry, and was promptly eaten alive.

        I believe we are now at that point.

        A is A: it could save your life.

        Everything you said only makes sense if all religion is extremist religion. Then we can say, "Why not admit that [extremist] religion is evil like other evils in the world?" I don't know why people encourage confusion of religion and extremism, but it seems like they're shamelessly hoping neighbors who previously got along turn on each other over ethnic and religious differences.

        When people say they're aruging A=A, almost invariably they're equating two unlike things.

          honestly, you know where I am coming from. Moral relativism is exactly that. If your society buys into anti-reason by the bunches, you will have by design or gravity crackpot thinking and the followers to go with it.
          Your last statement throws me. I think I pretty much call spades spades. give an example of where I say A is A and it is not

            "honestly, you know where I am coming from."
            I actually have no idea. I know people who believe in religious stuff. Some of it seems unusual, such as not celebrating holidays or birthdays; or irrational, such as the idea gods intervene in our lives on a daily basis. It's easy to paint them as extremists, but they're fundamentally different from people who commit violent crimes.

            "If your society buys into anti-reason by the bunches, you will have by design or gravity crackpot thinking and the followers to go with it. "
            Yes!

            "give an example of where I say A is A and it is not"
            I don't really get the A=A thing in this case, and it may be not germane. It just seems like A=A often means "I'm making the continuum fallacy", i.e. the claim that b/c there's no clear boundary between two things, the two are actually the same thing.
