Red Pill and the Quran: Is the Quran Closer to Red Pill Reality or Simp Culture?
Originally from the video “Red Pill and the Quran, “Sometimes I catch flak for my content. People say it’s completely outside the context of Islam. As a Muslim, they argue, I should stick strictly to quoting Quranic verses, Hadith, or books of jurisprudence every single time I open my mouth. Let me push back on […]
