About three weeks after announcing her conversion to Islam, Sinead O’Connor posted a tweet that she described as “so racist” that she “never thought her soul could ever feel it.”
“I’m terribly sorry. What I’m about to say is something so racist I never thought my soul could ever feel it,” she said.
“But truly I never wanna spend time with white people again (if that’s what non-muslims are called). Not for one moment, for any reason. They are disgusting.”

White people, if that’s what non-Muslims are called? What’s more bizarre than O’Connor’s racist ramblings is how the media, particularly FairFax Media, decided to push the story.
The piece was not posted with a recent image of O’Connor donning her new hijab, but rather with a 2014 photo of the singer dressed as a Christian priest.
Propaganda much?
