Suzanne Moore’s objections to Warsi’s book are: anti-free speech (?); two billion Muslims, therefore anti-Muslim bigotry isn’t so bad (what?); Hitchens, Dawkins, Trevor Phillips and Gove are cited as anti-Muslim, but (by supposition) they aren’t (don’t piss on my leg and tell me it’s raining)

Why you’re probably Islamophobic
There’s genuine pain in Muslims Don’t Matter, a polemic by Baroness Warsi, but her concept of Islamophobia remains a threat to free speech

It's a threat to free speech because it's saying some speech is harmful and wrong, and that means people aren't being given freedom to do it 😭

Warsi literally spent years in the Tory party in the House of Lords and heard worse than she is citing publicly. Muslims and Jewish people need to bind together as Jewish workers did with antifascists in the 1930s, because we face precisely the same threats.

Baroness Warsi has been fighting Islamaphobia in the conservative party for 20+ years. In Boris Johnson's time rhere was an independemnt report started, which he stopped. He instigated an internal report which he refused to publish. Like the Russian Report.

Moore trading the well worn path from liberal to reactionary. Like Melanie Phillips before her. I'm surprised she has this take.

White supremacist forums treated with respect by the elites. If only Israel thought Hamas leaders were hiding at the Spectator garden party
