#therefore trying to conceptualize just religious based persecution is fruitless

[lvnarsapphic]

I say all this but I still do take pride in my Islamic upbringing and have used many of its values to kind of inform how I approach people and the world. Which kind of makes this whole thing worse because!!! So many religions and governments fucking hates Muslims!!!! We even hate ourselves because we started forming sects!!! Literally one of the foremost forbidden things the Prophet and the first Caliphates said NOT to do after their death!! Yet we can't talk about dismantling religion without also including Judaism and Islam, two very persecuted religions, but in such a way as to not contribute to white supremacy and fascism or the half dozen other chud groups or ideologies or countries that want us dead.

Do you see my issue? I do genuinely believe we need to remove religion from the world but I don't know how to currently conceptualize religious-based persecution within that belief. So the belief in removing religion from the world gets pushed to wayside in favor of wanting to protect religious minorities.
