    Sorry for rant. I'm getting called a white supremacist Islamophobe and a virtue signalling regressive at the same time again.

        I don't think its as easy as many people claim to separate ideas from people because ideas are held by people. Powerless on their own.

        We simply don't bother to criticise ideas that no-one holds. But I think it is important to only blame people for ideas they do hold.

        And the principle of criticising the idea, not the person is good even if u accept the person's personality influences the ideas they hold.

        Some ppl hold religious ideas very literally because they are very literal people but it still make a huge difference what the idea is.

        It happens when you discuss islam without preconceived notions. I've also been called a crypto-muslim and a racist/islamophobe.

        This means that you've met a lot of dogmatic ideologues and challenged their dogmas. Feel proud of yourself!

        People aren't prepared to have an earnest scientific discussion. They're passionate about ideas, entrenched in their positions.
