Armin Navabi is a like a compelling villain protagonist. He's got a villain origin story where he seeks to hurt Muslims because they hurt him. In 2017, Armin Navabi said Islam is worse than Nazi ideology which would make anyone want to eradicate Islam and consequently Muslims. Armin has made it clear during ExMNA speaking engagements that he does not want a reformation of Islam. No "replacing an evil lie with a nicer lie." He wants mass deconversion. Although he never says how. He probably wants to give himself plausible deniability. We know he supports Israel and is completely okay with them bombing civilians including children. I don't think he is too bothered with a USSR or People's Republic of China style cultural genocide with re-education facilities for adults and residential schools for children. He's already allied himself to Christian Nationalism and Hindutva. His problem with Islam clearly isn't the bigotry or authoritarianism. Armin is understandably hurt by Islam and Muslims. It's obvious he is seeking vengeance. He will side with anyone if they allow him to get his revenge against Muslims and if they pay him. Seriously, if Armin was a fictional character, he would be my favourite villain. I also like that he's a free speech absolutist.

BEHOLD the Lib-Left NeoCon 🙌 🙌 🙌 (I know this doesn't apply to everyone, this all in good fun)

I am a member of the LGBT community. I grew up in an openly gay household in the 1980s. I volunteered in the AIDS vaccine trials from 1998–2002. I am bisexual. I am also a United States Army veteran and a public policy analyst. I do not define myself by any single one of those facts — but none of them are negotiable parts of who I am. Because of that lived experience, I want to be clear about why I hold the positions I do. My issue is not with equal protection under the law. I have consistently supported equal treatment. What I object to — and what I have directly witnessed and experienced — is the political co-opting of the challenges facing LGBT people as a means of redefining us around a warped and reductionist version of our sexuality. Identity politics, as it is practiced by the hard left, collapses a whole human being into one characteristic and then weaponizes that characteristic against political opponents. It redefines us not as full individuals — veterans, parents, professionals, people of faith, people of none, conservatives, liberals, independents — but as a voting bloc and a tactical instrument. I have personally experienced the consequences of rejecting that framework. I have been harassed, ostracized, and labeled for disagreeing with the prevailing narrative. I have watched members of my own community be treated as traitors simply for holding center-right or religious liberty positions. That is not inclusion. That is ideological enforcement. There is also a cost to this weaponization that the hard left rarely acknowledges. When LGBT identity is used as a political cudgel, it deepens polarization and social mistrust. It reinforces the perception that we are not citizens seeking equal protection, but activists seeking to compel cultural submission. That perception harms the very people it claims to protect. Equally troubling is the lefts selective application of "moral outrage". We see the radical lefts relentless activism domestically against religious bakers, small businesses, or cultural conservatives. Yet there is near silence from many of these same radical leftists regarding the execution, imprisonment, and brutalization of LGBT individuals by Islamic fundamentalist terrorist organizations and by regimes such as the Iranian mullah regime that governs Iran. In direct contradiction to the false narrative pushed by the radical left criticizing those Islamic terrorist and their rogue regime patrons' is not the same as "condemning all Muslims."
