      Pride now has to decide whether or not to let ex-Muslims protest Islamic homophobia in same ex-Christians can protest Christian homophobia.

      And I question your framing that he is different than most human rights activists on the left, given that they are not relativists.

      I hope you're right but I fear you're not. I'm not sure how we'd measure.

      I mean, if you're concerned surely you have some relativists you could point me towards? Cause otherwise why frame it this way?

      Acqueiscence is marked by the absence of protest. Why haven't all d other human rights activists come forward to support ex-muslims in dis?

      Have you checked that they provided no support? Sounds like the March happened so unless some further issue is made what needs doing?

      Sounds like a lot of hand waving at vague threat. Relativists were bad but they mostly been replaced by moral realists and constructivists.

      I don't agree. I think ur best sources on difficulty of criticising Islamism due to regressive leftist pushback are reformers & ex-Muslims

      There is a very real danger than ex-Muslims will be banned from criticising Islamic homophobia at the next Pride coz of this pressure.

      Perhaps you are aware of Maajid Nawaz and Ayaan Hirsi Ali being named anti-Muslim extremists by SPLC for their criticism of it?

          That universities have ex-Muslims, liberal Muslims and reformists 'native informants' for criticising their own religion/religious culture?

          I am. And I'm pretty sure the SPLC didn't argue it on relativist grounds. And I'm very sure they got an overwhelming debate and pushback.

          They don't claim to be relativists, no. But it is what people are when they oppose one group doing something but not another.

          No. Again you're using the word wrong. Relativists don't criticize anyone. You mean hypocrites or particularists.

          I've sent you a thing I wrote about cultural relativism. I am not arguing semantics. Talking abt ppl whose principles vary by culture.

          It's not semantics. It's accuracy of terms. These concepts have distinct meanings and shouldn't be run together or you advance poor solution

          I read it. It seems to me you mean moral particularism sometimes and cultural relativism other times and you conflate the two.

          I'm talking abt people whose ethics are culturally relative. Who think something is OK in 1 cultural context & not in another. Its not hard.
