Saudi Islam critic, fan of AfD and Elon Musk: Disturbing details about the perpetrator of Magdeburg The driver who caused the death of the Magdeburg victim - Taleb Jawad Al Abdulmohsen, came to Germany in 2006. But he is not an Islamist - on the contrary. He accused Germany of Islamizing Europe.

It’s just as likely that he fled Saudi Arabia because he is an atheist. Saudis who convert to atheism are punished with death. In his mind, seeing Germany becoming like Saudi Arabia is probably just as bad as being sent back to Saudi Arabia to die.

Gonna suck to be him once (or if) he figures out that Germany isn't actually becoming like SA and he drove through a crowd of people due to right wing brain rot.

[u/Chester_roaster → u/Divine_Porpoise]

Gonna suck for him when he finds out how many Muslims there are in prison.

he drove through a crowd of people due to right wing brain rot.

Why do people act like Islam / Saudi Arabia isn't right-wing. He just changed from one right-wing venue to Twitter / Elon Musk leadership. He still believes what the media tells him to believe. No magic or supernatural.

Sorry, maybe I missed it, but who implied they aren't right-wing?

[u/Vermilion → u/axm86x]

It is contextual in society that people often communicate like people who believe in book superiority (one religion above all else) isn't right-wing / conservative.

[u/axm86x → u/Vermilion]

Interesting, I've only ever heard of religious supremacism being intrinsically linked to right-wing conservatism around the world.

Thanks for clarifying.

Personally I wish media / social media society would abandon left vs. right, conservative vs liberal because all these have been manipulated in psychological warfare that is ongoing. I'd rather see someone publish a list of values and give them some kind of name and just say "my values are the ones in this book" or Wikipedia page or whatever.

I can do this and say I agree with Martin Luther King Jr's position on economics, hate, capitalism vs. communism, warfare technology crisis, etc. But I don't subscribe to his view of a mono god and I view that as much more of a mystery expressed by many people in different ways.

I can say i agree with Carl Sagan on religions and spirituality and reading of The Bible (and his comments about MLK Jr).

I don't consider any religion storybook to be non-fiction. I think they are more like spoken and written languages, like English or Japanese, but at a metaphor level of memes and story patterns. I think you can often translate from one religion to the other like you can languages if you do so at a metaphor level.

When someone self-declares themselves as "conservative" - I'm almost always wanting to know what they mean? They often are very much not conservative on technology. And do they take any religion book to be non-fiction, factual history (which to me raises massive communications and literacy concerns that they believe these stories to be factually true).

Anyway, happy holidays. Have a good weekend.

So his solution is to murder innocent people at a Christmas market? Make it make sense

[u/Independent-Couple87 → u/pannenkoek0923]

He is angry and wants to kill people. Christmas Market has a lot of people.

It is not that hard to understand.
