this is one issue. one thing that kind of annoys me is how people portray him as a crypto shia, as though he secretly is still a shia and that's why he promotes Iranian interests.
why can't we just consider that maybe- that DH is not some post-racial liberal person, that DH is not a Shia- he's just a racially conscious Persian and so he will do pro-Iran things for motives to do with race, not that he's a shia.
There is a clear redpill to white supremacy pipeline. Its clear to see for everyone. Every single Muslim redpiller flirts with right wingers. It's a right of passage.
I quote this because- I really suspect that DH actually views himself as a white person. I don't really know Iranians and I don't know their culture- and I'm not accusing all Iranians of this but I think many Iranians view themselves as white people. Thus, when white supremacists start demonizing "brown Muslims" (I mean as well non-white Muslims in general).... I don't think white-identifying Iranians, I don't think they feel that they are being attacked racially. If they are Sunni then maybe they take offense on a religious ground but they don't feel attacked in terms of their race.
I think people should be aware of this if this is true. Because people who view themselves as white and who identify much with that identitiy... it may be that they lack sufficient concern with fellow Muslims because they don't really identify with their fellow Muslims as they should.
DH needs to remove any red pill stuff, be a little or a lot less influenced by internet culture and he definitely needs to not bring white nationalist stuff into his... dawah. because I do think he seems to see himself as white.
I indeed am appealing to race because I think it's legitimate here. Most of us Muslims are visibly not white. If the Tommy Robinson people had their way, we'd all be persecuted for our religion and our race- whether we are red pillers, feminists, or neither- thus I think Muslims should be able to close ranks on this, this is an issue to do with everyone's personal safety, that we should not accept buddy-buddy relationships with the Tommy Robinson type elements.
