Media Islam Makhachev is a married man now

That's the hillarious thing about this. There's a reason Europeans think Americans are the dumbest people on earth.
Europeans aren’t peaches either. There is a fairy tale that Europe is an urbane, sophisticated and civilized place, yet within living memory they were committing wide scale genocide against their own, colonizing much of Africa and Asia, and in places like Switzerland didn’t allow women to vote until the 1970s. It’s pretty rich when some countries look down on others for being backwards and ignorant, yet their closets are packed with the most and worst skeletons of history.

I could like that comment ten times. It's always funny when 'aware' people like to point how backwards some cultures are, almost pretending that we in the west are better than that because we allow women to wear what they want, yet as soon as one get assaulted, the first questions will always be "What were you doing at that time of the night ?" And so on but we think a woman wearing a headscarf is oppressing and at the same time we think women are more free because we live in the west where anyone can do and think what they want. Hypocritical. I am a woman born in the west and I am happy to live there because this is how I was raised but I doubt Islam or Khabib's wife are less happy because they are born in a muslim culture. In fact when Khabib made that rant about naked women on stage last year, I wouldnt surprised if his wife wouldn't have been just as horrified.
 
My God man, get the basic facts correct before co-signing on war. Saddam never oppressed Christians, he oppressed Shias, who aren’t a
minority they’re actually the majority. He never used chemical weapons on Kuwait, he’s alleged to have used them on the Iraqi town of halabja. And citing Iraq’s war with Iran as one of the justifications for invasion is pretty rich considering that the US urged him to invade Iran and supplied him with weapons, satellite imagery and intelligence, etc. Saddam was a bad and oppressive guy, but he wasn’t the first bad guy nor will he be the last bad guy in the world, there are plenty of those. It is NOT a justification for an illegal invasion of another country. Also, per the Lancet (a reputable medical journal in the U.K.) millions of civilians are thought to have died as a direct result of the US invasion, but the exact number doesn’t really matter. Whether it’s a million or 250k, that scale of suffering is immense and whoever supported and encouraged that invasion deserves to live in shame for eternity. Christopher Hitchens included.

My last point is that my biggest frustration with Americans (speaking as an American) is that we mostly refuse to learn anything about the world and yet we’re always convinced that the US must be the good guys. No offense but from your post it’s pretty clear you’re clueless about how things went down in Iraq and yet you’re perfectly willing to live in the illusion that “if the US invaded another country it must’ve been justified”. The invasion of Iraq was one of the most grotesque acts of mischief and bullying any modern country has ever engaged in and we were absolutely the villains. Americans need to stop living in the fantasy that we’re always the good guys.
I agree, removal of saddam was not good, sometimes this asshole dictators are necessary evil. You remove them, you destablise the whole entire area. Look at libya with gaddafi, lumumba with the congo, etc. If they remove ramzan as much of an asshole he is, They might go back to wars and destabilization of that entire region. There's a reason putin put him and his family in place because they curry most favor with the area. They give legitimacy to that region and gvt.

If America were a middle eastern country the level of crime and domestic violence would be scandalous and I suspect cited as an example of backwards culture. There is a deep bias that problems in western society are social problems rooted in policy, but problems in other parts of the world must be cultural. That’s partly why Fox News and the far right lose their shit over immigration, because they have a racist cognitive bias that immigrants from under developed countries will turn America into a shit hole because it was the immigrants “culture” that turned their home country into a shit hole.
 
Americans gave Benson Henderson shit all the time for praising Jesus Christ our Lord and Savior during post fight interview.
Has nothing to do with what religion someone is. People just wanna watch fucking sports, man.
Yeah when people are on here specifically bashing muslims and saying legitimately bigoted shit any time a Muslim fighter is mentioned I'm pretty sure its about religion

Bias against muslim fighters is real and painfully obvious, but when a non muslim fighter makes a mistake people either laugh it off just say "whatever".
 
So 170 people here are virgins.

Definitely @tehMoose
??

Dude you're pathetic. Give me your insta if you have balls and I'll follow you back to see who's the virgin here

I'll make you look like shit tier. Let's see if you have balls

Please tell me what honor killings are and how they are not a part of culture. Then after that we can go thru different "non cultural" topics and you can explain wich is cultural and wich is political. Then we can discuss how islam marries culture AND politics to keep people in line. And then we can discuss how modernized western societies will always be backwards because of some shit that happened 50-4000 years ago, before we discuss how europe is one country.

Tag me in the war room sherbro :D

Also congrats to islam, no more "lonely" nights in the hot tub with his bros now
 
Man you dont even know what his beliefs even are.

He stated his belief was that religions should be ridiculed because they are nonsensical. I took him at his word.

Come on, dude. Religions should be made fun of. Imagine in this day in age believing in such nonsense.

Compared to Americans, we are as advanced and sophisticated as people can be. In fact, when the bar is so low, anyone shines by comparison.

Americans in general are the most provincial, insular, ignorant humans on earth. That's why the rest of the world looks down on them.

Meh, I despise the French more than anyone else tbh. They’re stuck up, racist, and thoroughly dishonest and selective in their protestation of “liberal western values”. America is a dumpster everyone agrees, but Europe is sooooo overrated.

Ccareful, careful what you say about us. Joke aside, you can say that about americans too and lots of other places.

What is up with you guys? Lol. You have the Macron administration competing with Le Pen on how racist they can get. I’m just so over France honestly, almost as shitty as my country (US).

Yeah, shitty time we live in, I agree. So much to say, but that's not the place here.
