Many liberals celebrated when Hamtramck, Michigan, elected a Muslim-majority council in 2015

The celebration was assumed. See, Republicans always make a habit of hating anything that Democrats like, so the feeble minded journo with a looming deadline and no solid leads will assume the reverse is also true. Thus, because Republicans hate Muslims and want to eject them from any form of government, they'd assume Democrats must always celebrate whenever Muslims get majority control of some government body.
I'm being less sarcastic than I would like to, here.
I'll try to be generous and say that maybe some misguided people on the left were celebrating this, believing it was a win for diversity, but it sure wasn't widespread.
It's like the homeopathy of progressiveness. Just the tiniest, most ineffectual dose imaginable. Like "Sure they're far right theocratic zealots who want to crush women and queer folk, but at least these ones are brown!"
Really hate the shitty way you Americans classify races. Like dude, you unironically divide the fucking world in 4 groups?
Please try to understand that it was in fact irony. I do not.
I appreciate but do not require an amateur's help in mocking my countrymen.
More like color. White , brown, black, yellow and red
Republican propaganda, liberals don't feel betrayed. Liberals want separation on church and state that includes all churches not just Christianity.
It isn't republican propaganda, it is shitty journalism clickbait:
“There’s a sense of betrayal,” said the former Hamtramck mayor Karen Majewski, who is Polish American.
And it worked.
this story is from the guardian, probably the most mainstream progressive news organization in the world. "republican propaganda"! go back to bed steph
It's almost as if the answer is to stop voting anyone with a clearly abrahamic based religious agenda into power.
"It's almost as if the answer is to stop voting anyone with a ~~clearly abrahamic based~~ religious agenda into power."
anyone with a clearly ~~abrahamic based~~ religious agenda
Exactly. There are plenty of cults pretending to be science instead of the religion they actually behave like
Don’t elect cultist nut jobs
Islam is so clear in its hate for queer relationships you’d have to be a fucking idiot to think an honest Muslim is fine with someone being gay.
Why would they feel betrayed by conservatives doing conservative things? Then again, democrats love "reaching across the aisle" to fascists.
The establishment Democratic party is neoliberal which is not a far reach from the conservative Republican party (as opposed to the reactionary Republican party).
That's to say they Democrats are to the right of th American public, and most of the developed world. They depend on the GOP being consistently worse than they are.
And neither atheists nor progressives have a voice in the US.
