Unbelievable. @MaajidNawaz throws his support behind so-called "journalist" Andy Ngo who has a proven track record of demonizing Muslims; including writing an op-ed in @WSJ in which he essentially describes Whitechapel in London as a no-go zone dominated by Sharia (Islamic law) https://twitter.com/maajidnawaz/status/1274998723316199424
As mentioned previously, Ngo has made a career out of vilifying Muslims at-large. For the uninitiated, here he is donning a headscarf in an apparent attempt to "critically explore" what it's like for a non-Muslim male to wear a hijab (which btw, men aren't expected to do 🤦🏻‍♂️)
When he's not writing Muslim hit pieces or trying to convince people that hate crime allegations raised by LGBTQ members are simply “hoaxes", Ngo spends most of his time palling around with far-right org. in his home town of Portland; including the Proud Boys & Patriot Prayer
@MaajidNawaz I seriously find it hard to believe that you yourself are unaware of Andy Ngo's recorded history of propagating blatant islamophobia, and am utterly appalled that you, a British Muslim, would commend this individual and refer to him as "my brother 👊🏾" no less.
I myself am not Muslim, nor am I British, but I have been fortunate enough to have spent the past 6 years in London both working with and getting to know British Muslims (Read my bio: Pursuing a PhD at @KingsCollegeLon on British Muslim youths).
Therefore, I feel completely justified when I say "SHAME ON YOU @MaajidNawaz!!!"
@IwriteOK : Thought you might find this thread to be of some interest as I know you are well aware of who Andy Ngo is and what he represents (Also wanted to say I'm a huge fan of yours & love @bastardspod !!!)
@AmarAmarasingam @MrMubinShaikh not expecting you to get involved here, but just wanted to share this thread with you because I find this whole bromance despicable
