yep brit
Not all economic theory is built around Western domination & conservative capitalism. The lies casually spread here are dAngerous. And in a world already made dangerously unstable by inequality, their tone deafness is reckless.😑

This episode about the difference between Islam and ‘Islamism’ is basically The Economist saying they think we’re stupid. This alleged distinction not only appears ignorant of the Quran and Islamic theology, but of the history of Islam to begin with. Tell me, O learned Economists, how did Islam spread across North Africa, Eastern Europe, and all the way to Spain? Was that ‘Islamism’? Read a book!
