Why do they use the word "also" in the quote you cherry picked? Who does the "also" refer to?

[โ€“] Pringles@lemm.ee 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

It refers to conservative catholic movements.

I wonder why, when the article clearly shows that this is an interfaith movement toward intolerance and violence, the comment OP chose only to highlight Islamic involvement

I don't fucking know, ask AP, they published the article.

We both already know the answer. It's the people whose bigotry you chose to ignore when you were singing out muslims for being bigots.

No, we don't both know the answer. That's just you making assumptions, I'm guessing, based on your political views. I'm not ignoring anything I quoted the article, simple as.
