I just want to say in before the left takes commun Islam seriously.

I put in the title of this video, it's supposed to be, it's a half joke, it's a reference to our good friends over at Rap News from Oso Long ago.

But there is an interesting question pertaining to woke left, neo-Marxists and communists, for some reason, aligning with conservative Islam.

And there have been a bunch of funny circumstances, particularly in the UK.

This was several years ago.

You had LGBTQ activists showing up at a protest where fundamentalist Muslims in full, likeicarb and Garb were protesting LGBTQ education.

And the activists were telling them that they were in this together.

And the conservative religious people were like, no, we are not.

Where does this merger come from?

And it may actually just be the enemy of my enemy is my friend. Perhaps it's an anti-Western anti-Christian thing. But I don't think it's universal. I do think there is strange power dynamics at play. So we're going to talk about this today. We've got a couple of guests. And we'll start here. So do you want to introduce yourself? Yeah, I'm Ritvan Aydemir. People know me as apostate to prophet, where I have a YouTube channel by that name, for those who don't know it.

Yeah, that's what I do.

All right. Ah, we got another guest over here.

Yep, Ben Weingarten. I'm editor-at-large at Real Clear Investigations, right for the Federalist,

New York Post, and a slew of other outlets. I wrote a book four years ago on this very subject titled American Ingrid, Ilhan Omar,

and the progressive Islamist takeover of the Democratic Party.
