Ah but you see, that line only works when it's used by a lib. The same standard does not apply to them!

There's absolutely no need to read books like "Do Muslim Women Need Saving?" for a better understanding on why Western media's portrayal of Muslims is the way that it is, why do so when it's much easier to regurgitate unfounded, fabricated, downright mythological what-is-practically Western projections on to populations that they deem "uncivilized", all at the comfort of doing so from your own couch!

spoilerTo the lurkers, if this was somehow not obvious, /s.
