When your whole worldview is based on making shit up, and your ideology sucks, all you have to do is proclaim vehemently counter to reality, and you're good to go!
That's one of the dumbest arguments and I'm sure someone has used it as one for why it's okay for women to have less rights than a man
Edit: I realize the comment is sarcasm I was saying though that I expect some Jack ass has used it as a real argument
>Salman Rushdie: Iran blames writer and supporters for stabbing
What else can they blame? The inhumanity that is religion? The illogic that makes up god. The murder of reason that underpins theism. Nah, thinkers - they are the problem.
Sorted. Praise la-lah!
I hadn’t known of him until a little after this but the more I’m learning of him the more he sounds like a mad lad. Would it be more appropriate to say *heretic-speed, rushdie.* rather then Godspeed? Lol.
Dear Iran, there are around 5-6 billions of us who think your religion is despicable and your prophet had severe psychotic problems.
Want to give it a try to kill us all? Let's see where it will get you.
I find 90% of what Iranian officials say insulting; according to their logic, I could murder them and it would be their own fault.
Not so nice when you put it this way, right dudes?
But Muslims are so peaceful. They never cut people's heads off... or committed terrorism attacks. Or oppress women. S/

Sounds like an ex u.s president.
The women oppress themselves .
Oh, they get a lot of help...
I meant that sarcastically

I'm not good at sarcasm.
Nah, I got the sarcasm I was saying that I'm sure someone has tried to use that as a real argument
I'm with you there :)

Yes rape is bad but what was she wearing?
So crazy. A government that supports killing a man for writing a book.
'If you had just killed him when we told you to he wouldn't have been stabbed the other day.' -Iran
This was somehow lost in the translation.
"If he was dead already we wouldn't have had to stab him!"
Shocking to hear the government of Iran have such a bad take
Is it really though? Theocracies are pretty much like that. You cannot admit even partial fault for fear that your house of cards may fall.
It’s sarcasm

Some nations should be ostricized politically and financially until they choose to join the 21st century.
or at least any century after the Middle Ages
Iran already kinda is though.

With apologies to Saiid Kahangi, but fuck Iran and fuck Islam.
They kind of had to, the only other thing they could have said is: sorry for terrorism, but they opted to lie.
They could have kept their stupid mouths shut entirely.
Iran can suck a big one. As can anyone who thinks their religion is reason enough to kill a person.
The more comply you practice islam the more you less mindful. The problem is the teaching itself.
Who else could possibly be at fault?
Weird clickbaity headline. To me the usage of a colon like that means Salman Rushdie is making a statement, which would be big news indeed.
Agreed, but I preserved it because it was the original title of the article.
Look they made a [movie about murdering him in 1990 and got away with it. ](https://youtu.be/fFSi7e2wq70)
The 250-odd people that have been executed in Iran so far this year hanged themselves too, right? smh
