Muslim voters disillusioned with President Biden’s position on Israel are facing the prospect of a difficult choice in 2024.

    So you’re saying their being Muslim does have to do with their being stupid – or at least their continuing to be Muslim does.

        But see, if it was about religion generally, wouldn’t we expect to see a similar trend across all religious people?

          We do see that trend across all religions. Unless you wanted to count some of the “anti-religions” like Pastafarianism or The Church of Satan.

              I was still referring to the stupid v religious correlation. There can be other factors causing the religious vote to sway.

                So then it sounds like we agree – the reason for seeing an increase in Muslims voting for Trump is more nuanced than just a general rise in stupidity across humanity.

                  If that was your original contention, then yes. Almost everything is more nuanced than what is reported in the media. But nuance doesn’t drive clicks.

                    If that was your original contention, then yes.

                    Yes, and it was directed at the comment I replied to. So not entirely sure why you jumped in with what you did, if you were in agreement.
