America is hardly a country of "equality for all" sadly
Edit: This was literally 4 posts down
This happened in Canada, what does the usa have to do with this? This same thing is playing out over in the EU as well, and everyone here is wondering how the right is gaining political growth...this is why. People inherently do not want groups that come over and violently force their beliefs on the population.
Agreed.
To me, though, there's a bigger problem with people already here who are violently forcing their beliefs o to others.
US has to do with everything, since facts don't matter, only outrage
Maybe if the first group of countries stopped their centuries old "tradition" of doing exactly that to the rest of the world (and on a scale no immigrant could ever imagine inflicting, even if they were so inclined), there wouldn't be so many people fleeing "developing" nations and war zones in the first place?
I mean, you're a racist xenophobe so I don't expect logic would mean much to you, you just want confirmation that brown Muslim people are violent by nature and that they've come over there to take your job and rape "your" women), but that doesn't change reality (which is that your job is at risk because of capitalists, and white men are by far the largest demographic of rapists and other criminals, despite our "justice" systems doing their darndest to over represent minorities in prisons) , nor the fact that almost all of the supposed problems our "developed" world countries have with immigration are at the very least 98% self inflicted and could be resolved if only our governments didn't treat, and brainwash the population to treat "foreigners" as their scapegoat.
You're being manipulated by the oldest trick in the book, the fact that you've taken the propaganda on so enthusiastically is something you should work out with yourself, rather than taking it out on the most convenient target those in power have marked for you.
Lol you have no clue who I am, blind I am not. Your ignorance to the subject is not something that gives you a pass. Islam is not a peaceful religion, they've been fighting in that part of the world way before even the US existed. Right now, in today's world it is the most violent of religions. It is oppressive to women and lgbtq+ persons and is a current stain on the world. Your whataboutsim does not negate these points.
Being far from perfect doesn't mean you have no values.
