So many things went wrong with 1975. 1) Matty Healy was drunk and publicly drinking a bottle of whiskey on stage. Which was very unprofessional and disrespectful to most Muslim audience here; 2) Matty publicly criticizing and didn't obey Malaysian culture and laws. When in Rome, you are supposed to do as the Romans; 3) Matty publicly kissing his male band member. Even straight couples in Malaysia don't kiss in public; 4) His action caused the whole Good Vibes festival was cancelled by the government. It was supposed to be a 3 days festival but it got canceled on day 1; 5) Other artists that were invited to Good Vibes were affected and denied the chance to perform for Malaysian fans; 6) The organizer company suffered losses about RM10 million and reputation damage due to the cancellation of festival. They actually gave Malaysian authority an undertaking that 1975 would not pull the same stunt as what they did in Abu Dhabi. Based on some source, festival organizer actually got confirmation from 1975's side they wouldn't do stg like this in Malaysia hence the undertaking (which unfortunately was breached due to 1975's action). 7) It's clear that 1975 did this to get publicity but such is a very selfish action because many fans, artists and organizer suffered from this. And guess what, 1975 was banned at 11.30 pm on 21/7/2023 (Friday) and they took a 5.30 am flight to fly off from Malaysian on 22/7/2023 (Saturday). They fled the country as soon as possible because they knew the police were coming for them. Sure enough, at 2.30 pm (Saturday) police report was lodged but at the time they already fled the country and no arrest could be made. They challenged the laws and culture but didn't have the guts to face the legal consequences. What a bunch of cowards.

The 1975 agreed to abide by the guidelines and took the money from the concert organiser but then they knowingly BROKE the agreement. The band should've been sued for that. Then Matty started his show by saying "I'm not in the mood" to the audience when they PAID tickets to see artists perform their music. That's an insult to the audience. He went up the stage drunk, spitting everywhere and crushing the organiser's drone. Is this behaviour normal in England?

If Matt Healy and The 1975s were true advocates for the LGBTQ society they would’ve studied up on Malaysia prior to performing, the fact that they didn’t says a lot. They signed the contracts which stated they couldn’t do anything controversial, don’t sign if you don’t want to follow through. Matt has caused more damage to a conservative society from being drunk and thinking making out with his band mate was a good idea, this doesn’t affect his life however it does affect the LGBTQ community in Malaysia and the rest of the population. No one needed his white saviour mentality, no one asked for it, all they wanted was to see him and his band perform. He ruined the whole 3 day festival, performers, vendors, organisers, etc have all missed out due to his reckless behaviour. No country needs the West to show them the way to live.

It has zero to do with "the West". Absolutely zero. If you are from here stand up for your f'ing society, both of you. Otherwise piss off. And that goes for all the 71 upvoters too. It is, and was 100% him. People love to virtue signal. It's as incredible as it is becoming more and more downright pathetic. I also believe, most definitely, there is a type and they're not by any means uncommon. There was no great courage in his display as I'd bet dollars to donuts he not only wants to believe there was, but _most certainly_ wants everyone else too as well, as he makes his show of "standing up for" the lgbtq+ia123xyzers. He only did it because he _knew_ there would be little, if any, consequence to him, and any there would be, would be the type he could weather and which would then justify a doubling down upon...as he then runs off back to live in the safe society where he can do so. If he thought there was or could've been, he wouldn't have. I suspect, strongly, very strongly, that in any long run, the man would be far more of an outright coward than he is, "the civil rights activist that made some heroic act", he wishes to play. Your point about contracts and signatures, if true (no, gawd damn it, I'm not necessarily doubting it) are more evidence of this, and yes, he may well be acting "the white saviour", but if so, only, so he can again, consider himself one of the "good whites". Why? Because, once more, he's a gutless f^ck. This bs is so f%king common nowadays it's making me damn near nauseous. Sick to the back teeth of the West bashing too. Cut it out. Other societies, actually, can damn well learn a lot from us, a hell of lot, and should damn well start to do so. Frankly, I personally think it's fing overdue, long overdue, and no, gawd damn it, again, am I nor anyone else, promoting it as some kind of one way street that "other societies can _only_ learn from us, and _we cannot_ from them", that I have little doubt would be the tempting "comeback" that so many in our and other societies not only believe, but have no qualms in saying outloud as they once more, go where? Stand in? Head back to? And often, very often, try to get to. But not, pray tell, stay, or try to head in, the other direction. The outright arrogance and hypocrisy is astounding and I've had it.

There's beauty in every cultures and lesson we can learn from each other. What 1975 did in our country was plain disrespectful and foolish. They are not well-known in our country to begin with, for them to preach unnecessarily and do foolish acts onstage, it showed to us that, too much freedom of speech breeds people with questionable and unlawful behaviours like them...

When people pull this kind of stunt in the public eye, they are deliberately acting in provocation and causing a reaction from the other side.

Imagine if an American came to the UK and stood in the street and said the most awful things about black people, Jews and Muslims, the worst names you can imagine directly to some of these groups and then when he was arrested his defense was that in America he is protected 100% to say all these things directly to who ever he wants and that he was doing this as a protest against freedom of speech laws in the UK .

How would Sam feel if the Torat was burned? He'd call it anti-semitic and be outraged. Leave the subject to experts dude and don't speak without knowledge.

He talks about no one being able to criticize Islam yet he fails to notice that he himself is criticizing by saying that, and no body goes crazy because of that. There are thousands of people and books criticizing Islam, no one cares. That's because there's a difference between criticizing an idea, and denegrating and humiliating it's ideals and followers on purpose. It's just not the same thing. Also, we can all agree that the extreme reactions are wrong. Fine. But the bad reactions bare no weight to the action being correct. The question is "is this burning and step on the book right or wrong? ", so the answer shouldn't be "people should not burn embassies". Yes they shouldn't, but that doesn't answer the question. Also when he says Islam deserves the same respect as other religions (probably thinking of Christianity) but not more, he just means it deserves no respect, because judging by the amount of vile filth people in the west exhibit towards Christianity and Jesus, what respect is he even talking about?! I truly think muslims are more upset about these people's disrespect towards Christianity and Jesus than Christians are in the west today. You've turned Christians into a punching bag, and you're just upset that there are still other religions that haven't caved in.

I'm Malaysian and here's my take: We are happy that they're opinionated, but they shouldn't have pulled such a thing despite knowing how our country views LGBTQIA+ rights. They don't know about our sociopolitical climate, and our political climate. Had the government not acted, who knows what could have happened. They've messed it up for all of us. The effects of the band's actions extends beyond the direct effects that come just from the music festival being cancelled. From now on, it's going to be more difficult for international artists to come and perform here, and as it is, international artists don't come here often. Believe it or not, even our country's local music scene, be it live concerts or careers of musicians, have also taken a hit. The ones who are affected the most are the LGBTQIA+ community in Malaysia. While they're happy that Matty spoke up for them and that the band had the guts to have a same-sex kiss on stage, they're not happy with the things he said and did overall. Most of them who have shared their thoughts across social media all say they're even more afraid of what's going to happen to them and how much more stricter the government will get with their already strict laws against LGBT. The minority of us are open to LGBTQIA+, but the large majority of Malaysians are not. Malaysia has literally no legislations for LGBTQIA+ people. The thing is, when you go to a foreign country, respect their laws and culture even if you don't support them. It's accepted to stop injustice if you see it happening in front of you as a foreigner, but to act indecently in protest of something is not at all good. Don't go to a foreign country, act in protest, get yourself in trouble with the law, and then blame the country for yourself getting into trouble with the law.

The vendors, fans & organizers have worked so hard & waited for 3 long years to revive the Good Vibes Festival. Take your frustration somewhere else please, Matty. By the way, be it homo or hetero, we Malaysians usually choose to be more subtle when it comes to expressing our affection, and there’s nothing wrong with that.

What about christians in africa and russia rejecting lgbtq+ movement? Russia made it a crime to desecrate any religious books. They're not muslim but they understand what it is like to have a religion. Alot of people in places like Sweden, Uk or America ect. don't really have a religion despite being born christians. It is just for funeral and weddings obviously they never practice. Alot of them are not even sure if they believe in it or not. They are tolerant because they don't care enough. So it's not that islam is the only religion that demands a different level of respect. It's the christians that have lost respect for their own religion. That's why u see alot of christians converting to islam because it is truely the last monolithic religion that still holds true to it's value. And Stepping on a holy book is not freedom of speech. To think that it is IS CRAZYYYYYY😂

They can't grasp the concept of "sacred" yet they're teaching us about how we should handle our books or religion. If your religion is not sacred to you, then that's the way you choose to treat it, but not to the majority of us. Respect goes both ways. If you want us to respect you, just do the same.

​@@whiplashedstray6616 The British wrote Malaysia's first constitution and included within in clauses that provided the Malays with special protection because they realised without some advantage the Malays couldn't compete due to their poor education and lack of work ethic. The was on the condition that all races were treated fairly and religious freedom was given to all. Not only did they renege on this, the government introduced a series of laws under the New Economic Policy after discontented Malays began a massacre that likely saw over 1000 Chinese Malaysians murdered. These laws discriminated heavily against non Malays meaning they had to work three times as hard.Those laws were never supposed to be permanent and yet more than 65 years later they're still in place. There were discussions about altering the constitution so all were held to be equal but this never happened. The NEP was supposed to give Malays a help up to improve their education and economic standing and while this has to an extent work these affirmative action laws are now referred to a "Malay Special Rights" and are untouchable. A previous prime minister referred to them a crutch and tried to encourage the Malays to throw it away do they could stand up and walk for themselves but they refuse to and still non Malays have to do business when everything is skewed against them. Non Malay would almost invariably mean non Muslim and the religions they follow, particularly Christianity, faces heavy restrictions. Malaysia, through it's constitution, is a secular country however in practice this is very different. Mosques are paid for and big, new shiny ones pop up all the time. Churches and other temples have to be funded privately and require permission that is nearly always refused. For this reason they often operate from office buildings or industrial units and have to do this quietly so there is no sound that Muslims might here. Where permission is granted after many years. 12 in the case of one in Shah Alam it was for a building that had to look like an office block instead of a place of worship. No bells or religious icons could be used externally. Islam can be proselytised anywhere but Christians and other groups are completely banned. Those attempting it will be quickly arrested and jailed, even foreigners who for example hand out free Bibles. There are so many examples of Malaysia's racist laws and policies but I'll leave you with one more, Putrajaya. A new city built ostensibly to be the centre of government it was quickly apparent it was to be a city that excluded non Malays. 98% of Putrajaya's population are Malay and every aspect of any other ethnicity is missing. There is a church but it looks like an Islamic office building, there is a Chinese temple but once again looks the same. Putrajaya attempts to erase the presence of 35% of the Malaysian population and of course it was their taxes that paid for city where it's very clear they're not wanted. You tell me there's nothing racist in the above.

I'm with Piers on this one. If we say a book is a book and any book can be burnt, then we should say a fabric is a fabric even when it's a nation's flag, and anyone should be allowed to burn it. Personally, I disagree with both, but perhaps Sam Harris would agree with both. It should be noted that for some Arab nations, their religion IS their nationality. I don't agree with their aggressive stance on this matter, but we should understand that what religion means to them is different from what religion means to Christians. On a separate note, Sam forgot to mention that Judaism is not that different either. They may not go as mad if their holy book is on fire, but denial of their history and Holocaust is not protected by the free speech in many places. Again, I'm not defending any of this, I just don't think Sam is as unbiased as he thinks

@@isuriadireja91 They are biased because they focus on Islam? Isn't that exactly what you should go after? As he said himself in the clip. The other religious communities don't throw a tantrum. The fact the muslims get so upset is why you should focus on them. It is common sense.

We are what we say and what we do. People who say it's just a fabric have no respect for others but when others do that to them they have problems. e.g if someone burns his children's favorite toys

So you can see in comments there're many stand points & opinions. That's why we have many countries in this world. So the key is RESPECT other countries' law wherever you are.

But gentlemen, are we here denying the fact that there are topics that are commonly agreed to be taboo globally other than blasphemy to Islam’s God? Like, would either of you dare make a joke about -God Forbid- the H0l0caust or 9/11 and so on? Aren’t there any collectively agreed upon topics that are so emotionally provoking that we collectively avoid at all cost? Isn’t this a double standard to be added to Chat GPT’s double standard too?

If that’s true, then why are SO many people pissed about Sweden giving the ok on burning the bible and torah?It’s still trending on twitter and a vast majority of people (literally every Christian and Jew) are pissed off about it. So the fact that this guy is trying his best in radicalizing Islam in the most subtle way possible is just ridiculous. I mean at least come out and have the balls to say it straight and keep it legit. I’m just so fed up with having this debate constantly. It’s come to the point where I just don’t give a fuck anymore because there will always be people who will hate on you regardless of WHAT you represent or even WHO you are as an individual.

trending on twitter is different from threatening to kill people, killing people, contracting to kill people, burning down building and rioting - I am sure you would agree no?

Not having anyone from the Islamic faith or from Malaysia interviewed for their opinion or take is a pretty one sided discussion. Also, to say there is only one religion that will mrdr you for blasphemy about their religion is ludicrous and absurd and should have been called out by Piers. Do you forget the Hindus concerning the Padmaavat film and all the death threats and protests? How about the Burmese monks calling for the extermination of Muslims. Burn the Torah or the Hindu scriptures like that and you'd get the exact same reaction. Whenever I hear of book burners it's always Hitler that springs to mind. If you want to share that common trait with Hitler, go ahead, but you'll never see a Muslim burning the bible, not out of fear, but out of respect. Look at Ahmad Alloush, the Swedish protester who refused to burn the Torah and Bible though he was given permission to do so. It's called respect.

Matty Healy is a terrible person, regardless of this stunt.

You Muslims don't respect other religion equally so who are you to talk? I've never been to the Middle East but my best friend is Coptic Christian from Egypt and I believe what he has told me. Don't act innocent.

It's about how you say something. If you don't like Islam, then put together a debate and reasoning. Burning books and using abuse is stupid and I'm an atheist.
