The Highway Forums General Discussion Open Forum 2009 Prediction by Christopher Hitchens

I was just send a video by a friend about a prediction made by atheist Christopher Hitchens.

I never thought I would be posting something positive by the late Christopher Hitchens.
However, in this case we are living his prediction.

Here's another video regarding Lebanon on the same subject

I did not know that about Lebanon.
Yet it matches exactly to what my research tells me and it is very concerning.

The left does not seem to pay much attention either and in fact. All you need to do is draw attention to those kind of things and you will be accused of Islamophobia.

Even if we draw try to show the pro-Hamas protests, it is possible to be arrested on a hate crime. Yet, that will not happen if one actually speaks hate against the Jews.

The really silly thing about this, is I have heard someone who is Woke, say that Muslims approve of the LBGQT+++community.
I was tempted to laugh at that, but it was too serious a matter to do that.

I think the woke is all about supporting who they see as the oppressed. As seemingly, but really at odds with one another, oppressed groups will work together, but once the muslims get control they will begin oppressing those who supported them.

The left somehow disdains the westernjJudeo-Christian worldview. It must be spiritual in nature as it can not be based on their freedoms.

John,

I agree 100%. The LEFT has gone to extremes to hide the truth about Islam and its history toward world domination. CRT is but one of its tentacles that seeks to brainwash people, especially students and as you know, denigrates "whites" as aggressors and all others as victims, etc. I am including a link which I might have already provided here on the board somewhere else some time back that is a lecture by Dr. Bill Wagner on the history of Islam which is rarely mentioned in our academic institutions but is nevertheless recorded history.

Here's the video: Why Are We Afraid?

John
Yes that is my take as well. They see Muslims as the oppressed and seem blind to the Muslim agenda because of that.

Fairly recently, I actually was able to have a discussion with someone who embraces the CRT.
I showed him the history of where CT came from and how they added a letter “CRT”.
It of course can be traced to Karl Marx, and later to disciples of Karl Marl, in Antonio Gramsci and the Frankfort School.
Who basically believed that the reason Marx failed was because he failed to change the culture first.
CT was meant to change the culture.

Of course that person told me I had misrepresented CRT and gave the standard Wikipedia definition, that gives nothing about where it came from.

Thanks for the video, I will watch it later tonight.

I finished watching the video. Much I already knew about, such as what he said about the crusades and how history makes it sound like Muslims were the good guys.
I did not know however, about a lot of the history he talked about. For the basic reason he gave. We have been fed lies.
Lies that we deep down know, are lies. Or as he put it; “a bad smell coming from the basement.”

The video of course was made in 2012, so Woke as we know it was not well known.
Yet, I am convinced many Muslims love it that Woke fokes make Islam out to be the oppressed, rather than the oppressors.
Which makes sense when you consider CRT. Even many First Nation (native) professing Christians have fallen for CRT, because they consider themselves the victims and white man the oppressors. Makes sense because about 20 years ago, a native friend said to me, as though he was talking to another native. “I don’t need white mans religion, I need Jesus!”

I also found it interesting based on one of his graphs that Islam is even bad for Muslims, for the very reason, they will persecute those that they deem not to be true Muslims.
