Looking forward to reading this by an up & coming superstar in the field.
Dear friends, I have uploaded a pre-print draft version of my upcoming work on the historical traditions attributed to Imām Jaʿfar al-Ṣādiq on my Academia page. If you are interested in Ḥadīth Studies, early Islamic history, and the history of Imām Jaʿfar's thought.
Virtually every opinion I hold... But how about: I think we should bring back the elitist Islamic philosopher view, which holds religion to be a social good & "noble lie" pointing to higher truths; that we should let the masses persist in them so long as they don't harm others.
What opinion about religion would get you in this position?
Deplorable. Sadly, people only care about atrocities that advance their tribal narrative. Many Catholics finally waking up to the humanity of Palestinians once they realized that many of them are Christian. Yet, same applies to us Muslims: ISIS blowing up 70 Christians, oh well.
In February ISIS affiliated jihadi militants abducted 70 Christians in Congo & killed them inside a Protestant Church. Now ISIS jihadis entered into a Catholic church in eastern Congo during a vigil service. Now over 50 dead. Amazing how little folks seem to care.

Just logged in to say that @mehdirhasan should've said "I mustache you a question, but I'll shave it for later." Overall good job by Mehdi & of course disagree with those who bring up the "platforming" thing.
Let's be honest. Most people are idiots.
Honestly I’m sick of conservative middle American MAGA culture. This cultish behavior is not only low IQ but lacks a genuine sense of fun loving or playfulness that can make low IQ mass behavior whimsically charming.
lol he literally does all the time
Ok so why, PRAY TELL, is he not out here trying to make this argument about his identity TODAY? 🤔 Why reserve that glorious ancestry for college only? If he’s so Ugandan to the roots that it’s African ancestry? He needs to come out and stand on that paper identity IN REAL LIFE!
Me: Has Israel committed war crimes? @piersmorgan: We need to wait for due process. Me: Does that apply to Hamas, too? Piers: No, they did their war crimes on camera. Me: So has Israel? Piers: That’s the end of the show
I not only agree with this but would also argue that the intellectual should always find him or herself challenging & opposing popular opinions.
A real intellectual should never be member of an institution, political party, association*, etc. If you represent the group you are a propagandist, if you disagree you become a turncoat. An intellectual must be a judge not a defense lawyer. * Excludes bicycling groups.
