Comment on Britain, Which Birthed American Ideas About Liberty, Has Embraced Despotism
Aggravationstation@feddit.uk 2 months agoWell, let me tell you a little story I witnessed, indirectly.
How can you be an indirect witness? You either saw something or you didn’t.
The UK is Marxist in culture.
No, pretty sure this is a capitalist country. Care to explain further?
I heard of Sharia Law being legally imposed or accepted by British authorities…
Who did you hear this from? Where and when was it imposed? Because I heard they’ve got Muslamic ray guns www.youtube.com/watch?v=AIPD8qHhtVU

Is Keir Starmer a socialist? - theconversation.com/is-keir-starmer-a-socialist-2… UK is a capitalist economy. The culture is quite Marxist. Marxism isn’t an economic system.

From your first link:
"The council has no legal authority in the UK and cannot enforce any penalties; "
Muslims follow their religious leaders like Christians follow their church ministers. Neither have legal powers.

You say that, but honor killings keep happening.

Yes a religious group condoned murder. The OP claimed it is legal. “Sharia Law is being legally imposed.” Is a lie.
And I’m not fooled by the “I heard” he added to the front of his statement to attempt to dodge personal responsibility for promoting the lie.
The murders are investigated, and those responsible are found guilty and jailed.

What is legal by British law does not matter to Sharia. Just like Mormons with multiple wives. It is illegal, or not legal, by federal and state laws, but that does that stop Mormons from having multiple wives and grooming children for marriage? No.

Claiming Muslims follow their religious laws even when illegal is completely different from your original claim that Sharia law is being legally imposed by British authorities.
