Partisan position: Neither.
What I mean is, can I be labeled accurately in the popularly understood partisan sense to be in favor of or opposed to this issue? In this case no. My position is a little complicated. But generally I am opposed.
Why am I not entirely opposed?
Because I feel that Islam is dangerous and that it’s a good thing to limit exposure to it in ethical ways. I consider it a memetic pathogen that barring a more sophisticated response is best addressed now all things considered by way of quarantine.
Digital information channels should remain open of course but that’s because they are an entirely different style of vector, not because the information is any less dangerous.
Basically I consider religion a disease but grant that it is a person’s right to permit self-infection.
Why I am not entirely agreed?
Many reasons, most of which are obvious. Firstly because we already have an immigration process. Secondly, it ignores the real global exporter of terrorism, Saudi Arabia. Thirdly, it’s for the wrong reasons and it serves mostly as a distraction and a stress test.
