good advice: don’t engage on deprogram about religion, while they are some people with correct takes there, you can more often read takes like the defence of tongue sucking or absolute nuclear takes that you can’t become marxist without religion or that religion is inherently materialist

Oof. It doesn’t help that at least 2 of the 3 bois are religious. Hakim is Muslim and Yugopnik is Eastern Orthodox. I don’t know about JT.

Yeah every time you write something critical about religion they are like “Hakim is muslim” as if it didn’t led him to some outright wrong takes too including straight up proselitysm once.

I know he has some cringe takes on religion, but I didn’t know he proselitized once.

Something around last year. I searched it since i’m fairly sure i commented on it but reddit search is utter shit. I think it was in comments to one of his youtube videos and then it surfaced once or twice on reddit sub.

Found it

Op have screens in question, in second you can see how Hakim says Quran is his favourite book and he reccomend reading and even in-depth studying it to all visitors of his channel, which is basically proselitism especially since i very much doubt anyone coming to his channel regardless of option cames for hearing about his lord and saviour. On third you see him reccomending some fascist conversion story. Plus massively overestimating role islam plays in liberation of the people in the region and not mentioning how it even is on this position.

Thread below is also full of nuclear takes including the one about “materialist religion”

Imo Hakim deserves a pass on this matter. I don’t think he’s wrong at all when he comments about the role that Islam has played in the resistance of peoples in his region against empire, resistance against war that has been very up close to him personally.
