RACISM..
What is race?
Your first premise is wrong. There is no such thing as race. It is
unscientific to use the term.
There hasn't been any anti-Muslim hate propaganda posted to this list. I
won't permit it anymore than I am going to permit antsemitism or mindless
unsubstantiated falsehoods about Israel and the Jews. What you perceive as
racist is credible information. For example, Islamic misogyny is a fact.
It is pervasive, immoral and culturally practiced in Islamic countries.
It is a human rights abuse which will be criticized here just as human
rights/civil right abuses in Israel have been fairly criticized here.
This list is also alternative, progressive and leans very pronouncedly
to socialist principles. It is fair to say we (the objectives for this
list and the predominant position) are anti-capitalist.
