No, she isn't. And I don't think he's is saying that. The circles she's moving in now are tho & anti-Muslim bigotry is also a problem.

We must be able to criticise illiberalism among Muslims & point out the origins of it in Islam whilst avoiding Pegida & UKIP approaches.

Yes, but let's call it what it is: anti-Muslim bigotry. Not racism. UKIP and Pegida are not racist. They're xenophobic and anti-Muslim.
-
Rhetoric slips from cultural differences to racial ones very quickly. One minute its 'cultural integrity', next we're counting white Brits
-
Thing is, figures like AMW and Tommy Robinson are *fervently* antiracist. Joining a group that has some racist members doesn't change that
-
No, it just means they have joined a group with racist members & terrible reputations. They remain responsible for their own rhetoric.
-
And people like Nick Cohen remain responsible for theirs.
-
We all do. I tend to agree with his.
-
So, you think UKIP is racist? And AMW is racist for joining it?
-
UKIP is awful. Much of its rhetoric is racist. I don't think people become racist by joining it but I don't like AMWs much either.
