When I come here to the forum in my free time, I want to discuss things like that, not violent factions ~~of islam~~, lol! Grin

Yes, you are right. I take it back.

It has nothing to do with religion, but everything to do with free speech.

This is the internet, one of the last areas in the world where everyone is still allowed to say everything they want, even offending things.

If a symbol offends you, you are always free to block/ban the user. That's internet rule nr. 1.

Abou Talha hasn't said anything yet that would make me want to block him.
(Ok, I'm not blocking ANY user right now anyway, even known trolls, because I just want to be exposed to whatever is going on around spreadcoin)
And I am not so sensitive that I would allow a mere symbol (whatever it represents) to bamboozle me, or trigger a certain reaction...
Because that would mean that I am not even in control of my own emotions.
Why are people so easily "triggered" these days anyway?

It's about control and power.

How come Abou Talha has so much power that a mere graphic he posts, is capable of triggering all kinds of over the top reactions in some people's minds?
Makes me wonder how commited those people were in the first place...

That's what is worrying me the most, that some people allow other people to have so much emotional power over them.

Is it so easy these days?
So I just need to open an account, paste an ISIS flag as my avatar, and I can cause chaos?
