If it’s not op ed mentioning both things as a part of my biography without further comment would be 100% appropriate. Same as my age, ethnicity, where I’m from, that I suffer from mental illnesses: All that **** answers the fundamental question: WHO.

Don't try to get around the point. We're not talking about these journalists arguing or mentioning it neutrally, we're talking about it being mentioned to imply causality without arguments
nvm basically what Frown said, I'm lagging a page behind in this discussion

There is a causal relationship between Islam and misogyny and homophobia. You don’t have to be Sherlock Holmes to get that’s why I want the names released.

Of course there is, I'm not trying to deny that. The thing is that only a small fraction of muslims are extremists, same for any other religion. So by pointing out that an individual assaulter is a muslim, what are you trying to say? That religious fundamentalism is bad? what else is new. That muslims in general are bad (which is the point often implied by people bringing this up)? That's an unfair generalisation. Or even worse, that immigrants from muslim countries are invading Europe and if we don't kick them out we'll have Sharia law? That's utterly ridiculous

What about masks? Were they wearing masks? Let's keep our priorities straight here.
