The widely-used definition of “Islamophobia” does much the same to insulate Islam, the religion, from criticism as well, allowing all sorts of horrific things - from honour killings over sexual slavery to apostate killings - in the name of “protecting Islamic values”.

My Muslim neighbor seems pretty chill. I doubt he partakes in honor killings, sexual slavery, and/or apostate killings in his free time.

Estimates vary, but we’re expected to reach “peak human” around 2070 or 2080, at which point there will be between 9.4 billion and 10.4 billion people on the planet.

If Trump dies in office, I’d prefer it to be a lighning strike while he’s golfing.

How is that harsh? Just because I didn’t think of that doesn’t show malicious intent.

Why is this such a contentious point for you. It seems to bother you more than it should.

Mullvad browser is based on Firefox if that matters in context:

• Mullvad browser review

Just like the Tor browser, the Mullvad browser, too, is based on Firefox. This means that when a new feature is added to Firefox, it’s considered for addition to Mullvad as well.

Had a few drinks, some coffee, and sushi. I know, not the best combo but it was good. So far it’s a good day.

How is everyone else doing?
