Ugh get out of Indonesia Islam - you have no place there. They've already banned Grindr there thanks to them - what next? Go have your trips to Bali there quick gurls cause the gay lockdown is imminent.

Religion of peace!!!

I thought the protests were because he criticised he quran though?

That's blasphemy? Lol

Absolutely disgusting. These people are literally threatened by any ounce of creativity, freedom, debate, or critical thinking.

How Muslim of them

and Indonesia used to be painted as "progressive" muslim country, yet it gets worse with each year. I'm mostly worried about minorities there

Well Saudi Arabia is exporting Salafi education to Indonesia so I'm not surprised.
It's weird how Indonesia used to be so moderate but nowadays it's becoming more conservative every day.

First the religious zealots all lived in Aceh but it's spreading now

If their religion supposedly says they can't have a non-Muslim leader then they know where the border is

UGhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh guys please help us the sane/moderate Indonesians out

Why can't they move then?

People from my country are mostly too blinded/brainwashed to even see the ******** in this. It's clearly politics. My christian friends are so silent about this I think they don't want to upset more Muslims. But every time I speak out on Facebook (lol yes I only use it for politics) they always give me thumbs up. There were a rally in Jakarta to promote tolerance and to remind people that the country was built upon many religious and racial background and the founding fathers never intended the country to be a Muslim country etc but I guess most people didn't bother to listen to them

Some people are becoming straight out racist and discriminatory it's insane. All because the name of God. Like...

it's really nice to see your voice up your opinion when you know you put yourself in danger with such situations

wish I could help somehow, but those ignorant religious freaks would just paint me as "satanic progressive" or whatever. The same crap happens here with religious right-wing christians who hate "American liberal propaganda"

I only speak out on Facebook because only my close friends are there so the backlash I would receive is minimal I wouldn't dare to speak out on space that's more accessible because God knows what would happen to me I really don't want those people to hold a rally to get me into jail or threaten to hurt my family or something

wow, that is truly scary!

better not risk your life if you really don't want to lose your own head for it

it's really sad to see this all go down, but nothing to do about it since you're in minority and even if you were in a slight majority, people would find their own way of using violence to scare and shut you and everyone else down!

I'm a Muslim and live in Malaysia. The truth is I don't even know that choosing a non-muslim leader is prohibited for us

Most people in my country don't know it either. They don't even know that female leaders are forbidden too.

Queen Atifete Jahjaga came thru!!!
