It's not clear to me what you are skeptical about.

Ba'athist ideology is pan-arab but firmly secular. Poster is probably opposed to religion and its associated conservatism, like many norte American libertarian were/are re:protestant christian fundamentalists, for example (ignore the islamophobia of those americans for a moment, it breaks the comparison because OP is not speaking as a colonizer but as someone in the arab world)
So, charitably speaking: they want to be able to critique islam and islamic practices, in the ways and in the contexts that these aspects of the islamic world run afoul of, well, much the rest of the Raddle term of services, or in general an anti-oppression/"progressive" politics.

Cool, that's promising, I suppose? I need to read more about critiques of secularism.
