Maajid Nawaz might be doing a good thing with campaigning for Uighur Muslims but he's still an absolute wanker and apologist for Islamophobia more generally and far too many people who wouldn't listen to antisemitism apologist groups listen to him about Islamophobia.
"I don't want to appear like I'm doing the same thing apologists for antisemitism in labour do I've even asked one non-muslim and one muslim apologist for Islamophobia but that's different from appealing to antisemitism apologists because reasons"
I've talked both Maajid's and Colin's articles before in this thread, Colin's article is really not worth much, it's a pretty shallow article full of unwarranted assertions. Maajid's is more complex but basically not much better: https://twitter.com/TomNwainwright/status/1200444804674531329
It's worth noting I wrote that thread before, I read the MCB submission to the EHRC, which further weakens the arguments of those articles. https://twitter.com/TomNwainwright/status/1260590940726624266
