Love @rickygervais, but I’m so sick to death of ppl making this accusation
“You pretend to care about women oppressed under Islam, but you actually hate Muslims!!!”
Huh? How does that make sense?
I’m sure Ricky doesn’t speak out against animal cruelty because he hates animalshttps://twitter.com/rickygervais/status/1161923154673115136 …

I don't hurl 'bigots' and 'racists' at ppl criticising Islam. That would be hypocritical of me. I don't know why you even think this. Anyway, nice talking to you.

I agree, it would be hypocritical of you. That was the whole point of my initial tweet. Nice talking to you, too. I’m sorry if I came off hostile towards you-tweets are terrible for discourse. I actually love, adore and respect you as a comedian and one of my atheist prophets xx

Westerners in our bid to be PC, we promote the hijab without realising that for Iranian women it is a tool of oppression. When Iranian rulers see the West celebrating the hijab they're encouraged that forcing Iranian women to veil was the right one.

But he's referring to actual bigots. Not people who validly criticise Islam. He agrees that it is ok to criticise Islam. Not sure why it is difficult to see this.

I really don't think you understand his point and it seems all you want to do is play the holier than thou card. He's an ally. We're allies. We want the same thing. If you nitpick you will lose these relationships that you claim to need to further the greater good.

Maybe, Ricky is a smart guy, when somebody respectfully points out that he may be falling afoul of a logical fallacy that could be having the opposite effect to helping, as an ally it would be in his interest to dissect the criticism a little bit to see if it's valid.
