The attitudes of Muslim twitter have only formed as much as they have because social media is like the one “safe” place for them to openly express the batshit insane views many of them do hold or grow up around but can’t vocalize in real life without backlash.
there are so many people that grow up in these communities, some who are still Muslims, some who don’t identify as that anymore, who have voiced for so long that these views exist&they’re told it’s absurd only to see now that all that shit is real & even stupider than we thought
Most haven’t even been able to voice that til now with social media honestly.
On the flip side I don’t think the morons have cared for some of the shit they ride so hard for until social media. did you really give a bakers fuck about who celebrates Christmas before twitter? No

In Islamic republics or whatever you can voice whatever insane fundamentalist shit you want openly and get no backlash if anything you probably get turned into a hero of some sort. Everyone not living in those countries who shares similar attitudes has Twitter lol
These motherless fucks have no personalities beyond this though. They have nothing to themselves beyond a feeble identity crafted around religion. But social media gives them something to stand on. There’s people they can project themselves onto. Ali, Malcolm, recently, Khabib.
It’s not like honor killings & other kinds of violence weren’t rampant in the UK or even in the US before. Those attitudes were always a thing but spaces where u heard justifications for that type of thing didn’t extend beyond the occasional shit khutba at the mosque.
Now There’s jackals that can make whole threads justifying it vaguely or supporting it in quick twitter blurbs that are easy to digest along with a stupid two line Arabic verse that they attribute to the Quran or some bloated scholar.
Feeble ass people who are only guarded by the fact that social media isn’t real life and regressive attitudes in their own communities.
It’s why so many converts and born agains fall into that same stupidity bc thats what a lot of it is it’s fuckin poison
