He said, “Learn enough so you know what you’re talking about and don’t limit what you say” and that, imo is such good advice. If we want to adopt a topic, then we need to take on a keen interest in that topics origins. We need to understand every orifice of that topic because partial understanding or dismissing relevant parts means we lack knowledge. One of the things he says on a third video I watched 'You can't control who you really are' is "There are lots of things we almost but don’t quite know yet" and he's right; awareness or the awakening of what we already possibly know only comes from outside sources.

As for the word Islamophobia/c (a word I’ve used on here), he’s correct. It’s a word with deliberate intent and a word that comes without integrity. I for example, consider myself to be a principled person and yet here I am, on here, tossing out hollow words. I need to sit back and ask myself why I do that, what does it achieve?

For what it's worth I do respect your integrity for saying that. We may not agree with each other's views and perspectives on certain issues but it takes guts and integrity to openly question why you said something.
