Saved you a Bing: "Taqiyya is the act of concealing one's religious beliefs and practices when faced with persecution or threat."

So basically this commenter is projecting, because that is all that far right people do, calling themselves "libertarians" or "free speech supporters" or "apolitical" etc.

The correct description is that under taqiyya, Muslims can, do, are expected to, and celebrate outright lying about their intentions and goals if it furthers the spreading of Islam.

It’s literally in the book, there are no moderate versions of the book.

You can be mad, you can think I’m lying, but it’s right there.

Lol, when I first got to my first Islamic country, it was explained to me as a nice outreach program, that prayer song was broadcast as loud as possible for Fun Hey Look At Us Talk To God announcement.

A year later that guy talked to me more honestly and told me it was taqiyya to lie about taqiyya, smiling ear to ear.

Is it possible that you are lying about your intentions and goals right now?

Don’t take my word for it. You could do even the slightest bit of research about the noble and righteousness of lying under the cover of taqiyya, or, go spend some time in Islamic countries.

I’m sorry, I’m too pro-women’s and gay rights to get mixed up supporting people who want nothing less than those two things. Classic ideologue though, attack the messenger while avoiding the topic as hard as possible.
