The Ugly History of Dual-Loyalty Charges Ilhan Omar recently deployed an accusation that’s been used against religious minorities for years.

Interesting article, showing how treating Muslims as non-loyal to a country is the same bullshit already done against Catholics, Jews and other religions in USA.

    Somehow US is a hotbed for religious fanatism.

    Maybe it has to do with their history, as they left England due to religous reasons, than you have a whole inheritance tree of people who are still on the same mindset of regious war.

    Read about the “Bible belt”, which are states with most religious activism.
