Incidentally, I suspect the reason Phil hasn't gone Muslim is twofold. Both lead back to the fact that Islam is still largely perceived as a brown/black religion in the US. First and foremost, Phil is racist and scared of us "darkies." Barring of course that time he tried to hit on the Palestinian women and that weird fetishistic hijabi art he sort of gave up on. But the thing is he'd be dealing with other Muslim brothers if he were to "convert," and that's scary for him. Also while he got away with acting like a twat at the Buddhist temples, that trans shit wouldn't fly in a masjid. If he showed up reeking of filth and decked out in pleather bondage gear, he'd be politely asked to leave under the best of circumstances, but after the New Zealand shootings? You can bet a weird white guy waddling around acting suspiciously or belligerently would get the cops called on him.
The other reason is that ironically he'd probably get accused of "cultural appropration" by his SJW friends, even though actual Muslims wouldn't care. We welcome reverts, well most Muslims anyway, especially mainstream Sunnis and Shi'a, and that would almost certainly be what Phil would find (unless there's a NoI presence in Portland or something, which would be hilarious!). Even Salafis want reverts, though they tend to attract weirdos. But SJWs are kind of racists and segregationists; they don't seem to realize that Islam is a religion ANYONE can revert to, and that there are plenty of white practicing Muslims (and indeed countries like Albania are mostly Muslim). As far as they're concerned, white equals conservative Protestant Christian, suburban or rural, Republican voting, etc, which ironically is the exact sort of dualism Phil parrots. And unlike the Latinx lie, Phil hasn't set the groundwork by claiming to be part-Arab, Turkish, Kurdish, Pakistanj, Somali or whatever.
Now... its possible he was testing the waters with the whole YPG stuff and the Syria, Iran, Palestine stuff and the nasheed, but I think even Phil knows hes too dumb to understand the political intricacies of Middle East politics. He's too dumb and racist to know that Mexico and Puerto Rico are different countries with separate cultures, think he could grap what's going on in Egypt, Algeria, Iraq, Jordan, Qatar, Yemen, Tunisia, Syria, etc? Also if he tries to plug Arabic or Persian into an online translator, it will probably return it into Arabic script, which he can't read. Maybe he could find some Kurmanji or other Kurdish language in Latin script if he searched enough but that's kind of obscure and often spoken rather than written.
As for the Judaism thing, Phil is still kind of obsessed with Israel and Jewish identity to some extent, as his interests are cyclical and he never really gives them up, but he knows Israel isn't popular in SJW circles. He might not understand
why exactly, but he certainly knows he isnt supposed to be pro-Israel. He's sort of tried crouching it in terms of "good Jews" vs "bad Jews," but you know its burning him up that he can't pretend to be "Xochi" anymore. He doesn't quite get that social media in the early 2000s was very different from social media today even if he sort of gets the right buzz words.
The unfilled pleather bra on worn over a t-shirt and coupled with a net tutu just nails the look. Supersoldier badass killer, indeed.
Haha, that's another reason I never thought Phil was really "trans." Every photo where he's allegedly in drag, he seems to just put it on over men's clothing, as if he's embarrassed that someone will see him. He's so painfully vanilla it's not even funny anymore.
nah he's just born of satan.
More like Nurgle, as that's the only deity even close to Phil, and even then Nurgle is still better because he's a rather jolly fellow and loves you just as you are. Phil is the bastard spawn of Nurgle and Slaanesh with none of the good bits from either.
