Just saw this Charlie Kirk video telling Taylor Swift to 'submit' to her husband. And it hit me, Muslim extremists and Christian extremists (like MAGA types) have so much in common.

Both push the idea that women should have no agency. Both cherry-pick scripture to justify control. Imo, the difference is in the West, society pushes back, so Christian extremists can't fully enforce their agenda. In Muslim countries though, Salafis/ Wahhabis are often backed by governments and their own communities, which gives them power.

Another major issue is HADITHS. They were compiled over 200 years after the Prophet, but extremists put them above the Qur'an. So, I'd say hadith is Islam's version of the Bible: a mix of human additions that got canonized.

These are just my thoughts btw.
