“Hamas—one day offering condolences for the Rafidi who kills Sunnis, and another day for the Pope—and then they expect victory from God…,” wrote one user on X. The term “Rafidi” is a derogatory label used by hardline Sunnis to refer to Shia Muslims.
In a comment on Hezbollah’s statement, one user wrote on Facebook: “The Party of Satan mourns the leader of the polytheists out of hypocrisy and flattery toward the Crusaders.”
“Praying for mercy for a non-Muslim after their death contradicts many verses of the Holy Quran, which state that the fate of those who disbelieve in Islam is the Hellfire,” wrote one Facebook user in response to the mourning message from Iranian-born Iraqi Shia leader Grand Ayatollah Ali al-Sistani.
Similarly, some hardliners mocked Egypt’s Al-Azhar Grand Imam Ahmed al-Tayeb for referring to the pope as a “brother in humanity” in his condolence statement. Radical comments also attacked Pope Francis for his support for same-sex marriages.

Any article that quotes an anonymous account on Social Media must be obligated to prove it is not a Bot, beyond a reasonable doubt, before I’m going to take it seriously. FFS, for all we know, the person who wrote that was working for Newsweek at the time.
Similarly, some hardliners
Anyone we’d recognize? No? Just anonymous randos, then?
I swear to god, if 4chan hadn’t imploded last week, we’d be getting Greentext in the headlines.

You can’t kill 4chan, it’s not a website, it’s a part of us all
Abrahamic religions are brain rot.
Religion will keep us belligerently within its clutches forever, won’t it?
As long as there’s a state…
Is this literally the only thing you know how to type? Jesus dude…
Anatomy of the State right once again.
It’s the whole point of religion, so yes.
All religions are not the same and they come in many flavors.
Some religions in some flavors cause immense suffering though.
Fundamentalist parts of it is the one that causes suffering
Extremism is usually against the fundamentals of many religions. The whole terminology is wrong to begin with.
Take the example of American Evangelists. Do they go to the fundamentals of Jesus preaching according to the bible? Take everything you have and give to the poor? Rather an Elephant goes through the eye of a needle than a rich man reaching heaven? Tossing over tables of trade in the temples as the places of worship should not be places of commerce and greed? Refraining from violence wherever possible?
In the same wake the people quoted regarding Shiasm. The Quran says you should not bother with that. Also it is core to understand that noone except Allah knows what is in the heart of a person and noone except Allah will judge on who goes to hell and who goes to paradise.
English translation of the meaning:
[6:159] Surely they who divided their religion into parts and became sects, you have no concern with them; their affair is only with Allah, then He will inform them of what they did.
So being extremist shouldnt be called fundamentalist, as you need to violate some or many fundamentals to become extreme.
Nah, they’re all pretty shit

Islam is trash
Interesting double standard.
If someone said Judaism was trash thered be a major uproar and the comment would be quoted widely, the poster banned, and then possibly pursued by law enforcement.
It also blatently violates woldnews rules, rule 4. Interesting that a day later its still up.Contrary to popular opinion, mods don’t scrape all the threads looking for removable content.
We remove it when we see it, and sometimes it takes a report to make that happen.
Yeah thats fair. I mean no one reported it. I have no problem with moderation here. Cant be that fun of a task. My sympathies.
Agreed. But so is Christianity.
TBH the difference is surprisingly technical.
