You didn't have to - the people who made, printed and distributed that poster you posted already did. And it's a narrative that exists among the left to this very day. That's why I suggested we need an updated version, remember?
Neither do I. I didn't actually expect you to perform that which is historically impossible to do - merely to understand how ludicrous this line of reasoning actually gets the minute you unpack it.
Religion doesn't do anything. Period. We can talk all day long and discuss how the DRC supported the Apartheid-regime... but that discussion will contain lots of ideology and lots of realpolitik but very little that can actually be called "religious," won't it?
Sorry, we're not going to continue this discussion when you're not going to acknowledge you put words in my mouth.
Suit yourself. But remember... only one of us leaves here with an unresolved contradiction in their narrative.
That's you, by the way.
And the other one of us leaves here a liar. I know which one I'd rather be.
Grab at any and every straw you feel like - it doesn't change anything.
