Meet this Australian far-right activist Shermon Burgess who embraced Islam.
One of Australia’s most outspoken Islamophobes has embraced Islam, saying it is the only hope against the onslaught of Western degeneracy.
Shermon Burgess became a national figure for his role in the far-right groups United Patriots Front, Reclaim Australia and the Australian Defence League over the last decade.
But on his Instagram account he has posted a video saying that Christianity has failed the West while Islam still stands up for traditional values.
He said: “The reason I came to Islam is because I’ve seen the degeneracy in the West. I don’t like the rampant alcoholism, the drug taking, the sleeping around. I believe the West has lost its values big time.
“I think Christianity has failed the West like a lot of other Muslims have said. It’s not strong enough to defend the West and this is because of its inability to act and protect its people, protect its congregation, protect its clergy … it just really angered me that there’s so many of these Christians and they are seeing what is happening to traditional values and morals in society and instead of stamping it out in the early stages when they have the ability to do so, they’re just sitting back and they’re not doing anything.
