THAT’s what it has to do with Sam Harris…its actually in the original post. He didn’t ONCE think that, last I heard he still claims that. Same way certain groups say accusations of “xism” or “xphobia” are just ways to deflect THEIR “legitimate” criticisms of group x

Oh this so reminds me of how the Teabaggers suddenly figured out that instead of rallying around their pointy little heads we were laughing our butts off at the self-loathing image they’d created. All it did for me was encourage me to use the word more. Actually, on the occasions where I hear the right whine and bitch about language being used against them, I make a point of stopping and slathering it on as heavily as I can.

So, that’s where the right can cram their complaints about “islamophobia.”
