“White Christian nationalism” is a fictional bogeyman that the left created for propaganda purposes, but anyway, Mark Ruffalo here demonstrates that despite all their affirmations about Islam being the Religion of Peace, even leftists know that Sharia contravenes otherwise universally accepted principles of human rights in numerous particulars.
“Mark Ruffalo just shared an Islamophobic tweet to condemn Trump and it’s not going down well,” Images, July 3, 2024:
We’ve seen Avengers star Mark Ruffalo support the Palestinian cause on numerous occasions, which is why his latest statements featuring an Islamophobic comparison are not sitting well with us or his followers.
The actor is facing the heat for ignorant comments made in condemnation of Project 25 — a collection of right-wing policy proposals aimed at ‘reshaping the American government’. “Project 2025 is not a game, it’s white Christian nationalism,” he said in a post on X, formerly Twitter, on Tuesday, referring to the policy agenda developed by American think tank The Heritage Foundation.
“It is the Sharia Law of the ‘Christian’ crazy people who aren’t Christian at all but want to control every aspect of your life through their narrow and exclusionary interpretation of Christ’s egalitarian, inclusive, and kindly teachings… Forced birth and forced religion. Trump’s American Taliban,” the Hollywood star added.
Needless to say, several X users have since been schooling Ruffalo for using Islamic terms to refer to extremism in the West, accusing him of Islamophobia. Many are acknowledging the actor’s comments are misguided and misinformed, as opposed to having actual malicious intent behind them. Regardless of the intent, users believe Ruffalo’s post is a reflection of how deeply Islamophobia is ingrained in the West.
“White liberals will not miss any opportunity to use Islam as the standard of what needs to be purged,” said political comedian Aamer Rahman. “White Christian nationalism is the founding ideology of your whole country, what the f*** do Muslims and Sharia have to do with it?” he asked….
Bruce Watt says
he stepped in some Islamic taqiyya poo pile, he just needs to pull out his wallet picture of Mohammed and wish them a happy jannam day

Thanks, Jihadwatch, for serving up that Sunday Schadenfreude Special™️ !
Couldn’t have happened to a more deserving Hollywood a-hole!
Siddi Nasrani says
Islamophobia is a man made concept, it does not exist. A phobia is an extreme or irrational fear of or aversion to something: Islam is rational it says in their Quran.
Sharia Law is explicitly opposed to religious freedom, freedom of conscience and the free exchange of ideas. It is violent, openly bigoted toward non-Muslims, discriminatory, and unflinchingly sexist. Large sections deal with the practice of slavery. None of this changes by affixing a “phobia” label or otherwise insulting detractors.

?the truth hurt Muslims
but warns the world
Richard James says
If you are scared of Muslims because they go around killing and raping, which is what they do. Of course, you should be scared. Therefore, Islamophobia does exist, the same who has a problem with spiders has a phobia, that is real not irrational, it is a fact
John Smith says
Good logic Richard.
Richard Roy Blake says
Trouble in paradise? It seems as though part of the left (a very small part thusfar) is actually becoming “woke” in the true sense of the word.
Paul Bunting says
Ruffalo tried to be a good, obedient White Progressive Trump-hater but got slammed
for appropriating Sharia! Ha HaHAA……Sounds just like another hate group where they
call themselves “queer” but if a hetero(straight) person uses the word “queer,” it’s homophobia.
See how it works?
somehistory says
The lies just keep on coming.
mozlums are the ones forcing their religion on the rest of mankind…in the U.S. and elsewhere.
The Christians who came to this land and brought with them the teachings of Jesus, had in mind a place of freedom from the persecution they had endured. The Founders expressed, in numerous ways and words, their desire and intent to make sure every citizen had the Freedom of Religious thought and practice as well as the opportunity and Freedom of Speech.
People like this guy and the rahman creep want to make people believe that Christianity is the evil stalking the streets of America.
and that to speak the Truth about islam is a sin/crime worse than rape and murder.
the evil islam, the demonic teachings, demands and lies, will be “purged” from the entire earth. Not just the land called America.
Wellington says
Thank God, somehistory, that Christianity was the foundational religion of America and not Islam. OMG, imagine what America would look like if the teachings of Mohammed had been in place from the early 17th century onwards in what became the USA instead of Jesus’s teachings.
With so many non-religious people I have dealt with over the years I remain chagrined that so many of them, precisely because they are not religious, continue to see little to no difference between Christianity and Islam (indeed, some in full ignorance mode favor Islam over Christianity to the extent they can support the one over the other).
I have tried to impress upon such people that one can embrace the Judeo-Christian ethic without necessarily embracing the theology—and that the Islamic ethic is a prescription for tyranny of the mind, the soul and the body while the Judeo-Christian ethic works wonderfully well with the democratic tenets invented by the ancient Greeks.. So often such people look at me after I convey this with a blank stare, as though I had just said to them in all seriousness that men from Mars have landed.
somehistory says
Thank you, Wellington, for your reply.
I believe that a person must have a sense of spirituality to get what you try to convey, even if they don’t “embrace theology.”
As one who makes an imperfect attempt to follow Christ, I appreciate your defense of the faith.
James Lincoln says
somehistory,
I have the very good fortune of knowing Wellington personally.
He is the “real deal” – and his consistently excellent posts reflect this.
somehistory says
James,
as a reader of Jesus’ words about the “separation” of people, I see Wellington on the ‘right’ side.
Matthew 25:31-40
Wellington says
Fools and bad people turning on each other is invariably a battle won for wisdom and what is good, though a battle won is not enough because what is imperative is winning the entire war.
Verdict still out here as the twin evils of Islam and Leftism continue in their quest to destroy freedom and Western Civilization at its best. But nevertheless it’s always a delight when the detritus of humanity turn upon one another. No honor among thieves and all that.
Namer says
Please explain to me why anyone cares about what an actor says?
Dianne Mueller says
People do not like being judged. No one appreciates being told they are wrong about anything. Unless, of course, you are the exception, someone who pays attention to what’s going on around them.
This vacuum of thought and criticism – not just in the States but everywhere else on Earth – creates for itself the sucking sound of fools retching on their own vomit.
There was a time when I would have done anything, said anything, proffered anything to save my loved ones with some truth. I am now at an age, tipping the life span scale, where I am reconciled with not just my own passing, but that each and every one of my loved ones will pass on whether or not they heed my advice. But, in the meantime, and so as not to waste this space:
Islam is one of those poison pills handed out by a guy who didn’t like being judged. A guy who had his feelings hurt and made everyone pay a price for their judgment still has a massive following, and one determined to finish the job of stomping on all the nonbelievers.
Jerry says
I don’t know about anyone else, but I can never unsee the time this creep decided it would be cool to kiss another man on the lips, to show off his virtue signaling skills. He’s beyond disgusting, so any time he trips over his words is a good day. Here’s to many more.

At last, the cognitive dissonance and extreme irony of supporting Islamofascist political theology has been exposed accidentally by a left “progressive” and “woke” famous actor!
Do the rest of the “woke” crowd not see the truth of this man’s statement? He is saying that Sharia Law, which is the Islamist theology that guides politically-motivated Islamists in countries like Turkey, Pakistan, Iran et al, is the extreme ideology which promotes and supports Homophobia, Christianophobia, anti-Semitism and Misogyny!
Maybe some of the “progressives” supporting Islamist terrorism in the Middle East, Europe and U.S. will really “wake” up and smell the Sharia Law coffee that’s been diplomatically served under Western societies’ noses. It isn’t fresh. It is centuries-old Islamist beliefs that are wrapped around “human rights” to make them palatable to Western ignorant “progressives”!
memi says
SHARIA beliefs and practices include some “progressive” beliefs:
Misogyny
Homophobia
Private “Family Courts” & repudiation of Legal System of country they live in
Blind Obedience of Wife to Husbands and Fathers (even in rape cases)
Marriage of pre-teen girls with older men (imams esp.)considered a ‘blessing’
Female Genital Mutililation
Hatred for All Christians and Jews
Extinction of Christians and Israel
Proselytization of the young to Sharia Law
In Europe many muslim communities import imams trained in Turkey and Frnace has a hard time stopping this practice. Canada infamously almost implemented Sharia Law in Ontario, one of its provinces by Premier McGuinty in 2005 but Muslim women and Cnaadian MPs put a stop to it because of its extreme ideology that touches every aspect of their lives in Western lives. Dozens of murders of young girls by fathers, brothers, boyfriends & husands have been committed and Polygamy is rampant amont newcomers posing as “asylum seekers” and bringing 2 more real wives as “sisters, aunts” to validate their permanent residence. It is costing billions in social, housing and medical health care to support such fraudulent entries.
The “woke” should wake up soon.
memi says
Why is CHISTIANOPHOBIA so prevalent among not only ISLAMOFASCISTS but the “progressives”?!
Mikey says
It’s not a “phobia” if islamist regularly go boom,stab-stab or rapey-rapey.
