I like this. It'd be better if there was an astronaut rather than a cosmonaut.

i'll give em one point.
the west didn't have that in the 7th century.

Another thing to consider is how, metaphorically, the photo for "Islam" arguably would have looked more like the West some decades ago. Islam has for several decades now endured a rise of fundamentalism.

Middle East has been messed up ever since the collapse of the Ottoman Empire and was messed up further by the Iranian coup in the 60s.

Yes. Just look at 60s era Iran. It looks a lot like 60s era America.
Advertising in Iran in the 1970s, prior to the revolution.

Your lack of understanding of modern history isn't really a good excuse to engage in personal attacks, but they at least are a strong indicator that you already knew that your point was weak.

Do you even Ataturk, brah?
Islam hasn't necessarily been some fundamentalist Wahhabi/Shariah monolith for 1400 years, it's evolved and seen various permutations throughout its history and geographic reach.
That said, it's generally been a hindrance on the region's progress, to be sure.

That's stupid as frick. And intellectually dishonest. It's more impactful of you were honesty about the before and after of the takeover of radical Islam instead of some of ignorant bullshite.
