And just by the way, religious freedom ought to be a leftwing value, and it's to the Left's shame that it is generally not. I remember America in the 2000s. I know how selective the Right's interest in religious freedom is. We should be there to catch those they leave behind.

This feels like a bit of an enemy-of-my-enemy type situation: Macron is speaking out against "Islamists" and the "woke left", so therefore what he's saying is good. That's very silly!

Yes. The debate over Macron's comments has little to do with woke vs. unwoke. It has much more to do with completely divergent conceptions of religious freedom, pluralism, and how to live with deep differencehttps://twitter.com/JeffreyASachs/status/1322944345574617090 …

Would love to see
@benjaminhaddad,@shadihamid,@dmarusic debate this on@WCrowdsLive — was hoping that’s what this week’s episode would have been actually. Feel like it would be good forum. There is so much talking past each other from both sides misunderstanding the other.https://twitter.com/benjaminhaddad/status/1322950480490876928 …Thanks.

The one where
@aaronsibarium explains that catastrophizing our political moment may just bring about that which it fears/where we learn@shadihamid played tennis.

The inspiration for this episode was my recent essay on the Weimar Republic, and the lessons it offers the American Republic today:https://www.americanpurpose.com/articles/weimarization-american-republic/ …

What’s the biggest threat to liberal democracy: the woke left, the revolutionary right—or the Never Trumpers who claim to oppose both? I joined
@shadihamid and @dmarusic to debate all this and more on @WCrowdsLive:https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/wisdom-of-crowds/id1475204845?i=1000496790589 …Show this threadThanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better. UndoUndo -
If you're a French Muslim woman who simply wears the headscarf, then you are perceived by your own president as undermining the "values" of the Republic and violating gender equality. That has nothing to do with terrorism. This is about attacking individual religious practice

As
@MacaesBruno correctly points out: "A family of traditionalist Muslims will feel itself the target" of Macron's commentshttps://twitter.com/MacaesBruno/status/1322684762339840001 …

The new Macron interview is worrying, to put it mildly. Watch it and judge for yourself. He's conflating conservative and traditionalist interpretations of Islam with terrorism and extremism. This is precisely what you *don't* do after a terrorist attackpic.twitter.com/fm9obwMYIU

The French government is increasingly stigmatizing an entire group because of the actions of individual extremists. There should be no assumption of collective guilt. The actions of terrorists should not be used to delegitimatize French Muslims. But that's what's happening

It should be possible to do two things—to condemn the horrific attacks in France this past week in the strongest possible terms, while also viewing the French government's response as problematic and counterproductive

Is it helpful for the president of France to troll French Muslims? Probably not. But I'm not sure there's another way to read his statement that "Laïcité never killed anyone." It seems clear he's drawing a contrast between laïcité and a particular religion

This reminds me of all those people who said, after 9/11, that all Islamists are by definition extremists and not that different than al-Qaeda. Of course, it's human nature to conflate those things which are different if it's in your political or partisan interest to do so
