Who was this man?

Savage beatings. Unrelenting rapes and incessant humiliation in front of their own husbands and children. This was the lot of slaves under the control of a very famous man, a man who is looked to by millions as an example, as a model for how to live a righteous life.

He traded slaves. He trafficked in them for sexual exploitation, to the extent of elevating the practice to an act of devotion by those who followed him.

Not content with letting the practice of slavery (and all its ugly facets) fade into oblivion after his death, this man enshrined the practice into law and obligation, ensuring it would live on in perpetuity, indeed his example is still followed in many parts of the world, even now.

Who was this man?

Surely those concerned with racial and gender equality will want to address the continued admiration, even adoration, for a man with such a brutal, unrepentant history of enslavement. Undoubtedly they will rally to the cause and demand all references to him be erased from both history and culture!

I expect, once the name is revealed, the thousands of monuments to his memory and way of life in the United States alone will be dismantled, destroyed or diminished to the point of insignificance. After all, "No justice, No peace," right?

His name was Mohammed, and 1.7 billion people consider him as the "Prophet of Allah" (God).

I imagine BLM and Antifa mobs will be gathered around Mosques across the nation, demanding their destruction now that I've revealed the slavers name.

And then I woke up and remembered, it's not about slavery. It's not about racism. It's not about injustice. It's about revolution, and seizing the levers of power.

Truth is, the shrieking silence of the "woke" crowd concerning Islam and its "Prophet," shatters any claim to credibility the Left makes. They do not even believe their own bullshit. We shouldn't either.
