    First of all, I’m a brown, middle-eastern person.

    I was just trying to explain dangers of Islam. My country turned into shariah shithole in 20 years from secular.

      No you werent. You were making braod assumptions that are already proven to be wrong and you blame it on “Islam”, which implies “all Muslims”, despite there being evidence of psychiatric disorder in the suspect. Schizophrenia and other disorders with mania often express themselves in religious symbols. but if a psychatric ill person refers to Christianity would you say that this is Christianity for everyone? Probably not.

      Also you should consider carefully, if you want to stir more anti-Muslim sentiment. When it comes to progroms, the people will not care if you are muslim, atheist, christian or jew. They’ll just see a “brown” person. You might get praise from the political right now, but they will not protect you, no matter how loudly you announce to be different from the other “brown people”.

        They said you’re anti non-white. I told them I’m not a white. That’s why I said “I’m brown”, dummy.

      You have my sympathy, but this does not meaningfully change anything.

      Your comment was still bigoted af.

        Regardless of color, I was saying that the west should be careful about Muslims. And I still say that. I don’t have any ulterior motives. Interpret it however you want.

        There is no point in calling me a bigot without giving any reason.

          That’s not what you said.

          And even that is a pretty fucking backward thing to type.

          calling me a bigot without giving any reason.

          You give me new reasons every comment.

          If you don’t see this, you ought to re-evaluate.

            Is it enough for me to say “you are right” to end this discussion? Because it doesn’t seem to be going anywhere. Because I don’t agree with most of your opinions and you don’t seem to be able to change mine.

            Against a former Muslim, who fled a Muslim led country because of their Muslim laws. Telling them they’re a bigot for hating Islam is fucking condescending, white savior syndrome.

              I would never have been able to compose this sentence because I don’t speak English well. I agree with every word, every letter.

              They blame us while we tell them what we have suffered.

                Why categorize all French Muslims as killers when it’s obviously a tiny majority? There are between 3 and 5 millions of Muslims in France

                https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Islam_in_France

                Islam can be used by an autocratic state to impose its regime, but current Russia or North Korea don’t need it to impose on their populations.

                Categorizing several millions of people as killers because a few deranged people get radicalised seems shortsighted.
