    That’s the problem though this site doesn’t list verified terrorist attack it list violent crime and actions in war zones with nothing to back up links to terrorism. It would be like saying all of the war on terror was Christian terrorism because bush said god told him to do it.

    Ah, so the rest of the world means "fucking nothing". I figured as much.

    It's analogous to someone in 1939 saying that there is more chance of being killed by a falling tree than a Nazi in the US, as if global events aren't going to catch up with you eventually. This level of myopia is scary, but more or less ubiquitous.

    Yeah, I'm really not going to continue derailing this thread with your attempt to justify and defend hate speech and bigotry.

    Which is all you're doing, here.

    Funny, Christianity says the exact same thing.

    Actually Nazi groups and hate groups have been on the rise in the US since January 20th 2017.

    So you admit you have no evidence, just whining and crying that your racist sites aren’t trusted.

    Let's break it down, shall? Here's the whole statement:
    'Susan, I've known your address since last summer,' she said in the video. 'I've got a Luger and a mitochondrial disease. I don't care if I live.'

    'Why should I care if you live or your children? I just called an Uber. You've got about seven minutes to draft up a will. I'm coming for you, and it ain't gonna be pretty.'
    The start of, "I've known your address since last summer," While not an implicit threat, it is the kind of threatening speech people use to scare other people.
    And then we see "I don't care if I live." which is very suggestive of someone willing to go to extremes.
    Next we see, "Why should I care if you live or your children?" Again, very much threatening speech, even towards Susan's children.
    "You've got about seven minutes to draft up a will." Now here's the first genuine threat. Why do people need wills? To make their last wishes known when they die. Susan is being told she has seven minutes before she dies.
    "I'm coming for you, and it ain't gonna be pretty." Does this really need further explanation? Or did you just want confirmation she actually said it?

    No, it isn't on me that I think that Vox is credible, it is on you because you think they aren't. It is on you to post why they aren't.

    Let's compare the Daily Signal and Vox.

    https://mediabiasfactcheck.com/vox/ May have a strong left bias, but has a HIGH FACTUALITY rating. Something most right wing sources can't even manage.

    Now, https://mediabiasfactcheck.com/daily-signal/ Mixed for factuality, meaning it has failed fact checks or publishes outright false stories like they don't believe Climate Change. Which is understandable considering the funding the Heritage Foundation gets from Oil and Gas companies.

    But you continue living in ignorance, come back when you have real proof that Vox is worse than any right leaning source that you can find.

    So you say she has a different opinion than you...

    You can't talk about a "belief system" without inherently talking about the believers who make up that system. They are that belief system. It doesn't exist outside of them.

    Yeah, I just sourced him, but he will claim that Media Bias Fact Check will be biased or wrong, just like all the Trump supporters and claim fake news.

    Well, when most of what is being said isn't sourced in their website, then yeah, the website is bullshit.

    I know, I’m just waiting for the inevitable - “mediabiasfactheck and snopes are BIASED!” Then have them run away like the cowards they are when asking for boric.

    I mean... there's the religious books that tell people how and why to do or think things. Those exist without believers.

    It was disingenuous hand-waving and didn't even attempt to grapple with the argument or data. Even if one grants that the site is propagandistic in nature, the data is not a matter of opinion, it's either veridical or not. If you have relevant evidence to the contrary then I would be glad to see it, likewise if you know of a more neutral source that lists this data then I would be happy to use this to make my argument instead.

    When you focus exclusively on one group, you're not trying to understand an issue, you're engaging in propaganda.
    Are you suggesting there are any other groups that even come close to these numbers? There have been thousands upon thousands of Islamist atrocities since 9/11. It is self-evidently orders of magnitude higher than any other group you could list on a global scale, and so to even talk about comparisons is obscene.

    The obsession with neutrality in the face of these realities is an unfailing sign of moral confusion and grotesque ignorance.

    Thank you for driving home the point for me.

    And without said believers, said system does not exist. That it could exist again does not mean it exists now. Nor does it mean a future resurgence would have anything in common with ancient beliefs; see modern Wicca, druidism, paganism for examples. Or heck, even Christianity and Islam itself, which were all resurgences of and modifications of a prior faith (Judaism and Christianity, respectively).

    Not to mention, these things largely aren't concrete systems. There's a lot of variance and different sects and so forth. So treating them like single things is already misleading.
