Can you say stereotype?
What exactly prevents you from getting the REPEATED message from many different directions that something is very wrong in propaganda land?
GP was taking issue with the stereotype
characterize all poor people as freeloaders in the linked post. In the current post, she is addressing an entirely different subject...corporate welfare.
Being married to a Moslem, I find that broad-stroke stereotype
Jihadists are minority political factions that are hated every bit as much by more moderate Moslems as they are by Westerners. The nations where theocracy is the rule do not exactly give them a legitimate avenue for opposition or overthrow as we have here in the US. It is not a whole lot different than fanatical politicized Christian movements that make other Christians cringe every time they spout their racist, bigoted, exclusionary world views. I will not go down the road with you over infidel/sinner/people of the Book and the like. Suffice to say that racism and bigotry is a divisive, destructive and, at times, fatal force that undermines the productivity and cultural integrity in nations of ALL ideologies that harbor it within their borders. US is no exception to this.
