Spotify Executive Chris Bevington Dies In Stockholm Attack (variety.com)

"On Friday, four people were killed and about 15 more were injured when a truck plowed through a shopping area in the heart of Sweden's capital," reports Variety. One of the four victims was Chris Bevington, an executive at Spotify. An anonymous reader writes: "The British 41-year-old had served as Spotify's director of global partnerships/business development, working from Stockholm," reports Variety. The streaming service's founder, Daniel Ek, confirmed the news with a Facebook post on Sunday. "Chris has been a member of our band for over five years. He has had a great impact on not just the business but on everyone who had the privilege to know and work with him. There are no words for how missed he will be or for how sad we all are to have lost him like this."

    It is well known that most misery in the world is caused by muslims. But just why are muslims the mortal enemy of decency and civilisation? Simple. Look to their genes.

    Genetically muslims are largely of Negro ancestry. If you take the time to observe the police mug shots of your typical muslim you will notice the wide flared nostrils, negroid "liver" lips, negroid eyes in shape and coloration, and lazy "sleepy" drooping eyelids. Generally a muslim's skin is slightly lighter than a "chocolate drop" Negro, but nonetheless, a brown color usually associated with the Negro race. Both the muslim, and its darker kin have their roots in the African continent.

    Also notice the obvious genetic mutations on most muslims--peculiar malformed ears, oddly shaped skulls, asymmetric arrangement of the facial features. Most muslims are inbred. Not just within their "religion" but within their "tribe". When these symptoms and deformities are observed among ordinary non-muslim humans, it is generally a sign of some sort of genetic defect or mental retardation. Take a moment to study the features of the 9/11 hijackers, and it is patently obvious that these animals all exhibit the classic muslim deformities.

    Muslim tribes are composed of groups of 50 to 100 individuals who share a common name and genetic heritage. All marriage occurs from within these muslim tribes, i.e. intra-marriage, and is between first cousins. However, under some circumstances in muslim tradition, it's even allowable for a mother to marry her son, or a father to marry his daughter, as shocking and as alien as that may be to the non-muslim world.

    Although in civilized societies marriage of this kind has long been outlawed, within the muslim world marriage between first cousins is the norm. This only compounds the basic genetic defects of the muslim race. And like all compound interest, the effects of the compounding over generation after generation serve to amplify the deformities. In effect a genetic monster, both mental and physical, has been created. The muslim is a deformed beast more suitable for the Island of Dr. Moreau, than a being fit for human society.

    Can a muslim change its barbarism? Can a leopard change its spots? It's in the genes, stupid!

  2. Racism is group think (collective punishment) by emj · · Score: 1, Flamebait

    I heard news articles saying that the local [religous leaders] calling for death to gays

    These are not left/right questions, it is a free speech issue and a rascism/protectionism issue. Here in Scandinavia terror spread from the far right is actually a bigger concern, if we look at terror attacks on our soil. These acts of terror are not done by muslims, and by your logic we should start looking harder at the far right and prohibiting their leaders to express themselves in media. We already hinder free speech, and it is helping to some extent to have consequences when you call for the death of all ZYX, not very harsh though. We are not banning far right activists entry, that's about as ridiculous as your suggestion though.

    So sure your statements are racist, let me use a car analogy; car owners kill a lot of people with their cars, it would make a lot more sense for the US to ban cars from certain high risk areas. Sure they are "accidents" but they do happen consistently and the group of car owners can very well be held responsible, just as you say that the billions of muslims in the world should take responsibilities for the actions of the few.

    In the end when you say "we should not let the group XYZ do ZYX" it's easily rascism.
