The”religion of peace” has been a little bit hard on a lot of people. Dead people.
For 90-odd percent of its adherents, it may well be a "religion of peace." But they seem to have other attitudes that bear some examination.
People within the religion may not be peaceful but that can be said ever everyone within any religion.
How many people in this country claim to be Christian, which is to say they believe Jesus is our savior, and yet commit mass shootings almost monthly.
Whataboutism on display again...even though your monthly shooting claim is bogus.
Actually, the thread title doesn't specify Islam only...so I'm not sure you can call it whataboutism.
The context of this exchange was specifically about Islam. Fit clearly used whataboutism within the context of this exchange.
