at the same time I also know you can’t label every Muslim as extreme.
Doing so is untrue and counter-productive.

If you wanna critique this dude, whoever the f*ck he is, that’s fine. Painting a majority of Muslims as conservative, possibly to the point of repressive (in your opinion)... fine. Stating all Muslims to treat their women miserably... too broad a stroke.
Repression of women/women’s rights is more closely related to the strength of religious views in general than any specific religion. Evangelical Christians can be pretty repressive... have you seen the interviews of Trump Supporting women in the Bible Belt who are so brainwashed that they think “women should not serve as President” because it’s a “man’s job”. Some places in the USA might rival some Muslim countries depending on what you use to measure.
Have you heard about Gamal Abdel Nasser and what was he propagating in 1958? I take him as measure.
I dont think that I have to "Paint a majority of Muslims as conservative", they do that on their own
Now I leave it to you to make a comparison of Nasser and Sadiq when it comes to women rights.
Nasser was a KGB puppet. You love Mother Russia, so you love the KGB, so you should love Nasser.

I'm not sure I label every muslim as extreme, but the percentage of extremists is bigger compared the other major religions.

Nasser lived in a time when Russia didn't existed. Russia is not equal to USSR, it was only part of it. Very different political and economical systems as well. Too different for me

I think you should try to explain that again. It might be even more unintentionally funny next time.
Tread carefully though, you broke our agreement.

Buddy, the quid pro quo here is that you don't post racist hate about Muslims and accuse me of being secretly Muslim, and I don't mock your posts about you wanting to eat me.
You hated when I took the piss out of you for doing that, remember?

If you think that I've violated a rule there is a triangle in the upper right corner for that. As far as I know you are not an authority here to condemn other people
