Lefists really are an embarrassment. You are the real embarrassment. Dawkins' post was idiotic, and his idiocy is what is being objected to. Naturally, since he said something stupid you have to defend it, just as you defend slavery and genocide in your role as the poster child for why religion is harmful.

Meh. The man expressed a personal preference for one religious noise over another, and wondered whether that was just a cultural bias on his part. (Which, duh, of course it is. At least in part.)
How is this even a thing to talk about?
What next a thread about his favourite colour?

But ask your fellow leftist weirdos on twitter who’ve been flooding his Twitter page with hysterical messages about what a blatantly racist bigot he is.

"Leftists up in arms" is redundant at this point.

It shouldn’t be. Dude, you're the one who started a thread about it. You’re not that dumb so no need to be obtuse. The entire point of the thread is to point out the ridiculousness of the alt-left. Who’ve somehow made an innocent tweet about personal preference into a racism issue.

Who’ve somehow made an innocent tweet about personal preference into a racism issue. And you apparently ARE that dumb, that you think objecting to a tweet is ridiculous, but objecting to people objecting to a tweet? That's just great! You're a bigger fool than the fools you're objecting to. And I'm even worse for bothering to point out how dumb you're being. So argue against me and make yourself look even stupider still, lol.

My objection is not simply about them objecting to a tweet. I’m objecting about them shouting racist at somebodies statement which made nothing that could reasonably be construed as racist. You’re playing dumb but trying to be a smart arse at the same time.

The link in your OP redirects to this thread. So nonexistant leftists are up in arms? Not a surprising statement coming from someone who believes in a nonexistant deity.

I don’t read blogs. You’re the one who made the claim, I don’t care for some other person’s opinion. I want you to explain in your own words why you feel Dawkins stating a personal preference is idiotic and stupid. If you’re unwilling or simply incapable of doing that then I suggest that next time do us all a favour and STFU.

If you’re unwilling or simply incapable of doing that then I suggest that next time do us all a favour and STFU. You made an idiotic post whining about how stupid the left is for complaining about Dawkins' statements, and I gave you a brief, one page example of a leftist complaining about his statements and giving reasons for them. The guy even knows Dawkins personally--they've spoken together at events and had dinner/drinks together several times.
If you can't explain why this leftist is stupid because you "don't read blogs", then you actually prove that you simply aren't actually interested in what the left is saying.
So you are the one who needs to just shut the fuck up.

A good post, which criticises Dawkins, but doesn't call him "racist" or "bigoted", like the OP claimed. But to be fair, in the Twitter replies there are a few lone voices who call Dawkins "racist"; but these lone voices are outnumbered by those who rightfully point out that Islam is not a race. So the claim that "the left is in arms" does not really stand to scrutiny. Poor Cody™ . Even when he's right, he manages to be wrong. Must be a special talent.
